lyrics

V1
We do this to ourselves.
We’ve opened the door.
Our ignorance a warm embrace.
Our refusal to change.
When the masses die the few will follow.
There’s no where left to hide.
Greed culminates in destruction.
The folly of man.

Pre C
Putting self before survival.
Building towers higher to escape.
Fill the world with waste, blacken the skies.
But the stench is rising, coming to swallow us whole.

V2
The green we care to save,
worth nothing to us now.
Paper printed in disappear,
lulls us to sleep.

Chorus
The fires burning.
The seeds are dying.
Dragged back to the depths.
To the decay below.

V3
What good is money, when there’s nothing to buy?
The funeral pyres dwarf anything we’ve made.
Your thoughts and prayers, they won’t help you now.
Kicking and screaming, all hope is gone.

Outro
We did this to our selves
We do this to our selves
We did this to our selves
We’ve done this to ourselves
