Here once stood |
|
One hundred million species |
|
Undiscovered until extinction |
|
Here once stood |
|
Unnatural amounts of prey turned product |
|
Mechanized slaughter |
|
The sentient flaunted their machinist superiority |
|
An ersatz compensation for real instincts lost |
|
Millennia of ancestry, |
|
Plowed down for modern industry |
|
The solution to their housing crisis |
|
Was in fact the cause |
|
So why not humanity for habitats |
|
Because they are damned if they do |
|
and damned when they can't! |
|
Euthanasia is a crimless death penalty |
|
but it's still better than what they get |
|
when tortured, brutally murdered, |
|
because some fucking coward can't make a clean living |
|
So he picks on the voiceless children |
|
Well they're not smart like us, |
|
they won't feel a thing!' |
|
Thats a fact? Please explain! |
|
Why should we even care? |
|
The things we destroyed did not need to be there. |
|
It's survival of the selfish! |
|
The bi-pedal tyrant goes down with his ship in the end |
|
Here once stood |
|
Invented laws and morals |
|
Applicable to selective followers |
|
And, as such, rulers reserved the right |
|
To control matters of death and life |
|
... oxygen and oceans... |
|
Metal rusts, cement crumbles |
|
To err is human, not divine |
|
Prayers are so intently mumbled |
|
When proud man is forced to decline |
|
Why should we even care? |
|
The things we destroyed did not need to be there. |
|
It's survival of the selfish! |
|
The bi-pedal tyrant goes down with his ship in the end |
