"See me" "Hear me" "Need me" Some things will never change "Touch me" "Heal me" Mankind remains the same
Oceans Forests Nations Now everything bears our name While Earth is bleeding Nothing will remain Nothing prevails
We were stuck in this world of change Expecting it to remain Now nothing is left unstained
No!
When there's nothing more that we can trade Own Steal Or sell
When there's nothing whole because we took it apart And Just left Moved on
When there's nothing left for us to break Use Abuse Or rape
Then you're free to count how much you saved
I can see the ways we fail I can see us fall so easily A structure far too frail I can see 40,000 years of knowledge and history Invested in this child Spoiled and stained by proud divinity Gaining at best the perspective and wisdom Of not even a fleeting century
We have now reached the final ten thousandth of a second of our evolutionary year, as we hit 2,000 at a birth rate of 250 people a minute
Tell me How are we supposed to survive? If we're acting like fools All dropping dead to stay alive? Someone tell me Please just show me If there's nothing to do, God we'll turn to you But if we're an image of you I reckon you are just as puzzled and ugly too
You think we have developed fast; that we're civilized and intelligent I'll let you in on a secret: we have developed Things! The rest is simply knowledge passed on (I can see us drain this world I can see us buying loss too cheap Terra Sterilia washing its bronken hand of us now Creation's blackest sheep!) Hell, 99% of humanity couldn't put together a simple light bulb if you put a gun to their heads! And the intellect rubs off on fear
The year 2,010 AD: 6,823 Million people 2,020 AD: 7,518 Million people 2,030 AD: 8,140 Million people 2,040 AD: 8,668 Million people 2,050 AD: 9,104 Million people
I can see us read the signs But spell them out in backward travesty I see us close our eyes To all the wounds that we inflict to this world by being "free" We love this world to death Purchasing our lifestyles with our lives Defending our momentarily nations With the loss of our priceless earthly home
It's not hard to reach the top It's not hard not knowing when to stop It's not hard to take all Not very difficult to fly if you settle for a fall It's not hard to cross a line It's not hard to push and go to far Some creatures cannot climb Then there are us who cannot even learn how to stay alive
I'm sorry! For the things we did and did not do Forgive us; the fools that rushed ahead without a clue I am sorry Please forgive us For this human lack of humanity This evolutionary travesty This tragedy called "Man" ...called "Man"...
I'm sorry! For the things we did and didn't do Forgive us; the fools that rushed ahead without a single clue ...without a single clue...Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
