| Humanity’s a failed experiment,
|
| Walking the path to extinction,
|
| Spinning it’s wheels endlessly.
|
| Grease them with oil and uranium.
|
| (Humanity's a failed experiment,
|
| Walking the path to extinction.)
|
| The earth will shake,
|
| And the waters will rise.
|
| The elements reclaim what was taken,
|
| What was taken.
|
| The skyline is set ablaze with regret.
|
| Ashes cover a falling silhouette.
|
| The city will reap what it’s sewn and ignite,
|
| Watching as the city burns tonight.

| Mankind is a festering parasite)
|
| Blindly consuming mass manufactured faith,
|
| Mankind is a festering parasite,
|
| Relentlessly draining it’s host dry,
|
| Nailing belief to a cross of genocide.
|
| The elements reclaim what was taken (what was taken).
|
| The skyline is set ablaze with regret.
|
| Ashes cover a falling silhouette.
|
| The city will reap what it’s sewn and ignite,
|
| Watching as the city burns tonight.
|
| Only after the last tree’s cut
|
| And the last river poisoned,
|
| Only after the last fish is caught
|
| Will you find that money cannot be eaten.
|
| And everything becomes irrelevant
|
| As the sky tears open.
|
| Fire rains down; |
| fire rains down;
|
| The fourth world comes to an end.
|
| Push the button; |
| light the match;
|
| Feel the fault lines detach,
|
| Cross hairs in the evening light,
|
| I sit and watch the city burn tonight.
|
| The city burns tonight,
|
| Tonight.
|
| The city burns tonight.
|
| The skyline is set ablaze with regret.
|
| Ashes cover a falling silhouette.
|
| The city will reap what it sews and ignite,
|
| Watching as the city burns tonight. |
