作词 : Ramsey, Walkyer | |
Midsummer 2045 they lay upon | |
The beaches burning | |
Insects on a ball of rock | |
Upon it's axis slowly turning | |
Steel and concrete melanomas | |
Punctuate the hot sunrise | |
Spines now chilled by global warming | |
Microwave their last goodbyes. | |
For sixty years or more they say | |
Mankind had known there'd come a day | |
When there would be a price to pay. "Square Eyes" watched | |
The fools game show | |
The first to go and last to know | |
Sat eating junkfood on death row (Feeding the fall of the human empire) | |
No prophet cast the money lenders | |
From their polystyrene temples | |
Noone heard the penny drop | |
All interest shown was incidental. | |
Pity the chairman of the board | |
For all these years he's piled his hoard | |
But penniless he'll meet the lord | |
As all the world prepares to die | |
He stands before the needles eye | |
Whilst countless millions pass him by (Fleeing the fall of the human empire) | |
Recalling all those wasted hours | |
Of motions passed and minutes taken | |
Maybe now he feels remorse | |
For all the souls he has forsaken. | |
Silhouettes of living corpses | |
Remnants of a transcient race | |
March toward the red horizon | |
Evanesce without a trace. | |
The proud rub shoulders with the meek | |
On debris littered city streets | |
They fight like dogs for scraps to eat | |
The welfare state's in dissaray | |
All social order slips away | |
The "Primrose Path" lead to decay (The Curtain falls on the human empire) | |
Codes of conduct redefine | |
As justice turns to legal crime | |
These monsters masked by human features | |
Are by far the blindest creatures. |
