Ritual Dictates - Extinction Lyrics

Mysteries of the natural world
Origins giving way for our creations
Failing sight giving way to total blindness
Connections have faltered
Our fate is nearly sealed
Killing the host by becoming a virus
Why bother to change
It's the way we've always done it
Motherly blasphemy
She's been deceived
Gave birth to our colony
Made us to breath
We repay our gifts hollowly
We will see
The natural order unravelling at the seams
Choking and drowning in deeds of our doing
Twisting and turning our ends self fulfilling
Our wits are in question destroying our heaven
Mother Earth is raped again
Beaten, dying, and taking us with her to the end
Returning to the sea
Attempts made in vain
Controlling our lives
Our grave has been made and may scarcely be saved

Mysteries of the natural world
Origins giving way for our creations
Failing sight giving way to total blindness
Connections have faltered
Our fate is nearly sealed
Killing the host by becoming a virus
Why bother to change
It's the way we've always done it
Motherly blasphemy
She's been deceived
Gave birth to our colony
Made us to breath
We repay our gifts hollowly
We will see
The natural order unravelling at the seams
Choking and drowning in deeds of our doing
Twisting and turning our ends self fulfilling
Our wits are in question destroying our heaven
Mother Earth is raped again
Beaten, dying, and taking us with her to the end
Returning to the sea
Attempts made in vain
Controlling our lives
Our grave has been made and may scarcely be saved
