The Extinction Lyrics


and the forests burn, and the night reigns, the world caves in on itself

the inhabitants vote to kill with lies and apathy

and the rain will always burn and the ash obscures the sun

the extinction the murder, patricide, has begun

the instinctual call, of survival

apathy enslaves, look the other way

hear the song inside, voices from the past

cries in the wind, beyond the parasite, the ancestral home survives in the mind's eye, centuries pass, the human unfolds, famine, genocide, the relinquishing of power only by the spilling of blood, transference of wealth, the corporate entity controls and decides, the rape continues, a finite conclusion just beyond the current life span, the giver of evolution, revolving in the light, the infection spreads, pieces go dark and stop breathing, replaced with industry, flattened, angled, destroyed, the mother speaks in winds, tectonic plates reassemble, oceans surge from their polluted depths, the quiet solitude of glacial peaks comes to an end, the period of turmoil and unrest has been created, the great purge, the human immolation has begun
