Burning The Lungs Of Earth Lyrics

First the smoke and seas will rise
The naive will remain blind
The world turns, the sun still shines
As we slowly choke and die

Acidification, toxic ecocide
Temperatures rising, early warning signs
Excessive expansion
Rampant fraud and greed
A distraction, no reaction
It’s getting hard to breathe

It’s getting hard to breathe
The human detriment
Severe gross negligence

Power hungry immoral self-serving capitalists
Count their coins one by one with salivating grins
Delivering our eulogy, each one taking their turn
Condescending, asphyxiating
Watch our pyres burn

Watch the pyres burn
The human detriment
Severe gross negligence
The ending eminent
Desolate genesis

First the smoke and seas will rise
The naive will remain blind
The world turns, the sun still shines
As we slowly choke and die

Slowly choke and die

The spreading of concrete sickness
Labeled progress with some side-effects
Humanity is infected
If untreated will soon become septic

Noxious emissions, waived protocols
Elite purchases, illegal acquittals
Wash away all consequence
Yet their hands remain unclean
Deregulation, forest cremation
Fueling the machine

Fueling the machine
The human detriment
Severe gross negligence
The ending eminent
Desolate genesis

First the smoke and seas will rise
The naive will remain blind
The world turns, the sun still shines
As we slowly choke and die
Suffocating all mankind
Much too late to wonder why
The world turns, the sun still shines
As we slowly choke…

…And die
