Lyrics

When will it stop?

Reflecting on the duration of the ongoing issues

This endless plague

Describing a persistent and widespread problem

We're all consuming

Highlighting collective participation in the issue

So fucking greedy

Expressing intense greed or avarice

We take for nothing

Indicating a tendency to take without giving back

Without compassion

Emphasizing a lack of empathy or consideration

Ultimate virus

Metaphorically referring to destructive behavior as a virus

Constantly feeding

Portraying a continuous and insatiable nature of the problem

Always growing

Describing perpetual growth without restraint

Without regard

Acting without concern for consequences

For future life

Disregarding the impact on future generations

Just hunger now

Focusing solely on immediate desires or needs

Killing our mother

Metaphorically blaming humanity for harming the Earth

That which sustains us

Emphasizing the Earth's role in sustaining life

Ungrateful children

Criticizing a lack of gratitude and responsibility

Sucking her dry

Exploiting the Earth's resources without replenishing

We think we are gods

Comparing human arrogance to god-like behavior

Assuming birthrights

Assuming entitlement without earning or respecting

Shit where we eat

Engaging in destructive behavior in one's own habitat

Give nothing back

Not contributing positively to the environment

Swarming all over consuming the earth

Describing a widespread and destructive human presence

Taking for granted the home of our kids

Taking the environment for granted, especially for future generations

Hungry for power, and money, and now

Expressing a desire for power and wealth at the expense of the Earth

The mother is choking, we tighten the noose

Metaphorically portraying harm to the Earth as a tightening noose

Swarming all over consuming the earth

Reiterating the destructive human impact on the Earth

Taking for granted the home of our kids

Reemphasizing the lack of consideration for future generations

Hungry for power, and money, and now

Continuing to criticize the pursuit of power and wealth over environmental responsibility

The mother is choking, we tighten the noose

Symbolizing the Earth's distress and impending harm through the metaphor of tightening the noose
