1.
Ouroborous 03:54
Where are we now? Nothing to show For their sacrifice Tragic rise then demise Wearing ourselves thin Shedding lives Shedding skin Sinking teeth to tail just to stay alive Slithering contortion This cycle never ends Rusting repetition This timeline never bends (Sedentary by omission Devoid of primal instincts Perpetual disappointment of your own volition)
2.
Rethink your culture of greed Taking all you want Refusing your needs Disown contentions Release contentions Destroying what you claim to love (What you claim to love) Acid rain travels from the nape of your neck Down to the small of your spine Sticks of dynamite Destructed habitats Survey the wreckage Deserted oceans Infested landfills Survey the wreckage Survey the wreckage Survey the wreckage
3.
Sands wearing thin Cutting circulation From wrists to beneath bow of chin Grains of regret Echo existence squandered Control as if from G-d By a force that doesn't exist Hands of biding time Leave no resolve to resist Apex predator leaves us winding Pregnant with fear To spend remaining days Punctuated by red lights Fighting the sun both ways
4.
In constant rearrangement Who can no longer fear? New beasts infest tidepools Crashing waves resort to cool Crumbling leaves, Gaea grieves Humans are the invasive species Annihilation to pacify Castration to mollify Let the lands cry out They silently beg Us to quietly retreat On hind legs Fauna and flora grieve We are the invasive species
5.
Heirs of lament emanate from now barren womb New life rises Parasitic ash blown away Scavenger birds circling overgrown tomb Dementors' bones and flesh Fertilizing to atone With savages dead and buried Sylvan beasts restore order alone Self-imposed plagues bring destruction By no will but our own Prophecy written in nature, not in stone Terra firma, take my body to rectify For all that man has done
6.
Abrupt Decay 02:11
It's a heavy weight to bear These slights because you're here Harsh awakening by resentment Swallowing yourself whole Belly up in a storm That you reaped and sowed Taking more than what you're owed For many years ahead, Maybe your rest of them, You'll remember this moment Beg yourself why Watch it all waste away Abrupt decay Decimated, violated Abrupt decay Watch it all waste away Abrupt decay Ill fated men sated Abrupt decay
7.
A grudge is not a crutch But a foundation to live upon Refuse to forgive until you hate Begin to chip away At what we what we once were Dust away the weak parts Channel the stream Rain water runs into crevices Raising hairs on cool stones Eroding remnants of old semblance The heat has come again Splinter, pop, crack at the roots Exasperation we all know too well A grudge is not a crutch But a foundation to live upon Disrupt our foundation Dismantle old beginnings Rearrange encircling faults beyond recognition
8.
Speechless mermaid wilts to bones Time erodes naïvety Breathless to discharge shackled moans Abandoned as all patience and hope We've razed the deepest depths Catering to the shallowest needs Meniscus serves as a mirror Polluted skies reflect tarred sands Ominous, burgeoning blood moon expands Baring homes as wasteland The sea has no voice to cry for halt She only speaks in vengeance Canopied in sparkling scales Rank crests recede Too little now, too late Men retreat to no avail Tarred and feathered, shores to sand From whence we came to where we end
9.
Power Lines 03:21
Power lines suffocate the city horizon Sun asphyxiates before it even arises Habitats abiding to scum human reigns Man's shadow dominates the plains Long mechanical fingers grasp at the banes Stirring, disturbing the nests Seeds of pestilence They will not forgive Their bending branches refuse to break They will grow into resilience (Resilience) Swine's blood drains into city streams Drown the dirty animals in deserving disease Swine's blood drains into city streams Drown the dirty animals in deserving disease
