lyrics

As the flames of our existence
Kiss upon the soil
And scorches life
From this toxic fertile wasteland

And from the ashes of this planet
Existence will rise again
And bring new life from this great death
Giving life a second chance

Life can continue from the bonemeal
made by this atrocity
And breed the seeds of the new world
Continuing this scorched Earth

Torch the Earth
Wallow in ash
Reset all life
Burn the forests down

Have we gone against nature
When the nature of humankind
Is the mistakes we made

A sordid history bathed in blood and ruin
Yet this cruelty is what makes us human
A great flaw within the human brain
A species born with a desire to love yet hate

This great hypocrisy which lives inside us
Will be the downfall of Earth
The cruel laugh at the suffering of all life

For once all human life has ceased to exist
And the fabric of humanity breaks down
Only then shall the Earth be free of this tyranny
But not before it burns down

Cruelty lives in us
So it may bring new life
So we must follow our bloodcarved path
And burn the forest down
