There Is No Business to Be Done on a Dead Planet
Awakening Earth's Cry: A Plea for Change
Lyrics
Depleting the need of thieves to care
Depleting the concern or responsibility of thieves
They rise on Degradations wings
Rising with the wings of degradation
I've seen, we've all seen
Observing, collectively acknowledging
We have seen the coming price for our
Awareness of the impending cost for our self-righteous greed
Self-righteous greed
A cry from the Earth for changes, a plea unheard
A cry from earth for changes
A plea expressed silently
A silent plea
Deciphered message lost in failure to understand
Deciphered in a manner
Faced with failure, unable to comprehend the message
Lost in failure
Abandoned numerous opportunities
We've left in-numerous numbers
Falling into tears, expressing sorrow and regret
Failing into tears
Lives lost, casualties of our actions
They've lost their lives
Engaged in a destructive and relentless killing spree
We're on a killing spree
Reiteration of a killing spree, emphasizing the destructive nature
Killing spree
Blood of tortured souls stains humanity
The blood of tortured souls stains us
Personal acknowledgment of the stain from tortured souls
The blood of tortured souls stain me
Expressing personal inability to bear the guilt and consequences
I can't bear it
A call to recognize the direction of life and its consequences
We must see where this life's leading
Emphasizing the need to eliminate destructive habits
Kill these deadly habits
Reiterating the importance of understanding life's course
We must see where this lies leading
Listening to the cry from Earth after acknowledging the path
Then we'll listen, then we'll listen to a cry from earth for changes
Reiteration of a silent plea and its unsuccessful understanding
A silent plea
Reiterating the deciphered message lost in failure
Deciphered in a manner
Exploiting the world for material wealth
Lost in failure
Anticipating the consequences of exploiting the world
We've whored this world for riches
Acknowledging the loss of lives due to our actions
And we soon shall see
Raising the question of the value of wealth when there's nothing left
We've lost our lives
Highlighting the ultimate loss when resources are depleted
What good is all their money when
Questioning the significance of money when there's nothing to purchase
There's nothing left to buy?
Emphasizing the futility when the planet is dead
