Take a look at the suffering We have brought to this finite world Men will do as they please Nothing, no-one will appease this stark annexation Oh, the ending time when we cross the line Cover the world with darkness Cover the world with mankind's progress Since the day that we first stepped onto this earth A thought inside our minds Has led us to this day Crossing social boundaries Crossing autonomies The will to conquer seems To always conquer us [chorus]Fate will show that we are nothing more Than a plague to all
Than a virus leeching We are dammed with this desire strain We can't change our pain Chasing lives of plenty Bequeath the carnal thirst The road to tomorrow is jammed by what was yesterday Built in to our genome, the urge to conquer everything The forests are burning, the forests are burning away And we are the cause, we're our own enemy Manipulating my wants into necessities Consuming the crime As mankind fades into dust, failed memories turn to rust The children lost their way [chorus]
