Take this burning home |
|
Our blood runs hot |
|
But our hearts are cold |
|
These blackened skies and poison seas |
|
Stain our souls |
|
Yet our hands are clean |
|
Is this our legacy? |
|
Money matters most to buy us demons |
|
To turn us into gods |
|
But if money mattered most |
|
Our bottom line |
|
Should buy us hope |
|
Instead we leave you alone |
|
To take this burden |
|
Off our fragile bones |
|
We hand down this mess |
|
To the heirs of our indifference |
|
We pass this torch with shame |
|
For you to put out the flames |
|
So hold your breath and bite your tongues |
|
Daughters and our sons |
|
We leave our own flesh and blood |
|
Work we left undone |
|
Cast the flame and lay to waste |
|
The future for today |
|
Cast the flame and lay to waste |
|
The future for today |
|
Mother nature raped |
|
In mankind's wake |
|
This is a disgrace |
|
And makes our children slaves to our mistakes |
|
But we turn the other way |
|
For you to douse these flames |
|
So hold your breath and bite your tongues |
|
Daughters and our sons |
|
We leave our own flesh and blood |
|
Work we left undone |
|
We take to the grave |
|
A world that's up to you to save |
|
We take to the grave |
|
A world that's up to you to save |
|
So hold your breath and bite your tongues |
|
Daughters and our sons |
|
We leave our own flesh and blood |
|
Work we left undone |
