The Wake

 

Destroy everything, cleanse

Wipe away the filth, set fire to your waste

Burn everything, back into dirt

Burn everything

 

Flood, drown the earth

Flood, drown the earth

It’s what we deserve

 

Rehash the poisons, you breathe in the air

Tear down what you say your Father created

Constructing buildings over buildings

Conceal history like a shameful scar

This world has lived for a million years with more to come

It’s only a matter of time until you choke on your indifference

Struggling to breathe as the water fills your lungs

Trying hard to scream as it rises into your throat

 

The reckless, the careless

Will reign until the oceans rise

 

Flood, drown the earth

Flood, drown the earth

It’s what we deserve

It’s what we deserve

It’s what we deserve

It’s what we deserve

It’s what we deserve

 

This world has lived for a million years with more to come

It’s only a matter of time until you choke on your indifference

Struggling to breathe as the water fills your lungs

Trying hard to scream as it rises into your throat

 

Wake up and save yourself

The sea will reclaim what it worked to create

Wake up, save yourself

Pick up the pieces, ask for forgiveness
