[00:17.16] First the auspices, they came dripping from the sky,
[00:21.59] set their course to the coast, black sand blazing in their eyes.
[00:26.13] We woke and bore witness to a tarnished veil of gold
[00:30.29] tiny corpses line the strand, obsolescence unfolds.
[00:34.99] Intravenously,
[00:37.67] hypodermic pipelines seep toxins to the sea adorning our shores with negligence.
[00:43.82] Suffocate, immolate - cauterize the surface.
[00:48.37] Poison dances in the sky.
[00:50.46] Walk with me. Walk with me and see our colonies breeding dystrophy.
[00:54.64] Can you feel, feel the disconnect resonate, burn inside your chest?
[00:59.07] Palpitating, palpitating pulse - failing heart, cardiac convulse.
[01:03.37] The violence we love, it's cyclical. We rise and we fall, it's inevitable.
[01:09.33] Is it fatal?
[01:13.70] Is the fallout inevitable?
[01:18.19] It was all for nothing - spiraling out of control.
[01:25.76] (Misdirected decathect, both indirect and circumspect,
[01:29.88] oh architect of disconnect, in retrospect I now suspect.)
[01:34.43] Trace the hills with your hungry eyes.
[01:37.50] Witness how, like an orphan's spine, cities protrude on the horizon line.
[01:43.05] Greed will rise and carve out the sky, blinding us to the...
[01:48.05] Repercussion.
[01:52.17] Pull the blood from the earth,
[01:56.49] leave a grave for your sons.
[02:00.79] Oil is the ink, fueling missiles like pens - writing oblivion.
[02:07.50] Walk with me. Walk with me and see our colonies breeding dystrophy.
[02:11.75] Can you feel, feel the disconnect resonate, burn inside your chest?
[02:16.24] Palpitating, palpitating pulse - failing heart, cardiac convulse.
[02:20.48] The violence we love, it's cyclical. We rise and we fall, it's inevitable.
[02:26.19] Is it fatal?
[02:30.56] Is the fallout inevitable?
[02:34.98] It was all for nothing - spiraling out of control.
[02:43.65] Is it fatal?
[02:47.96] Is the fallout inevitable?
[02:52.58] It was all for nothing - spiraling out of control.
[03:01.93] This violence we love, it's cyclical.
[03:06.24] We rise and we fall, it's inevitable.
[03:10.61] The violence we love, it's cyclical.
[03:15.16] We rose just to fall.
[03:17.89] I followed the harm to the site of infection.
[03:22.14] The exit wounds where we made our home.
[03:26.46] We were gorged with the earth and drunk off the seas.
[03:30.77] And now we die with the taste of decay on our tongues.
