The Alchemist - Nature On A Leash lyrics

We're growing buildings by the sea We're plotting, planning our insanity Pushing out to live beyond our bounds Taking over until nothing can be found Striving for heights we can not reach We're keeping nature on a leash Joking with ourselves As we pretend that we don't see, and we're growing taller Blasting deeper holes under the sea We won't see it coming Nature reclaims all that's hers Returning balance to the earth And we move underground, and we begin to see Nature removes her leash It's now on you and me Striving for heights we can not reach We're keeping nature on a leash Arrogance will be the downfall of the human race Building bigger cities, soon to be our children's graves Nature escapes from her chains And we move underground And we begin to see Nature remove her leash It's now on you and me
