Lyrics

In the ruins of the world I see a reflection

In the aftermath of destruction, I perceive a reflection.

Darkened shades of what the earth used to be

Obscured shades of what the Earth once was.

We brought the storm ourselves

We, humanity, have caused this catastrophe ourselves.

This human spawned hell

This hellish situation is a product of human actions.

Justified with emptied words

Justification found in meaningless words.

Denial worn just like a crown

Denial worn proudly, akin to a crown.


Distant noises

Distant sounds echoing.

Chanting voices

Vocalizations in a rhythmic pattern.

Lifeless hopeless

Lacking life, devoid of hope.

The damage done

The irreversible harm has been inflicted.


In despair of time

In the desperation of passing time.

The secrets and the lies

Revelation of hidden truths and deception.

Echos in the fire

Reverberations within the flames.

Raining hazard filth

Filth descending like a hazardous rain.


Distant noises

Distant sounds persisting.

Chanting voices

Voices chanting persistently.

Lifeless hopeless

Lifeless existence, devoid of hope.

The damage done

The irreversible harm has been inflicted.


I see the ruins of the world

I witness the aftermath of global destruction.

See the remnants of the storm

Observing the remnants left by the destructive storm.

See mutation I abstain

Refusing to partake in the observed mutation.

Hear creation cry in pain

Hearing the cries of creation in agony.


Commit the sin

Committing sinful acts.

Nature’s war

A war waged by nature.

Lifeless, hopeless

Lifeless, without hope.

The damage done

The irreversible harm has been inflicted.


Rip the roots

Tearing away the foundations of sacred ground.

Of the holy ground

Lifeless, without hope.

Lifeless, hopeless

The irreversible harm has been inflicted.

The damage done
