Watch the World Burn
Lyrics
It's been said before that we're all not made to last
But with our head so full of straw we simply scoffed at the signs
Not a single thought given to the lectures of the past
Pompous, selfish men lead us to the fall
And with a pull the threads undone
Clock strikes well past one
Puppeteers, they hold our strings
Noose tight around our necks
Empty trees and dried up seas
Mother we forsake
No repent for our mistakes
Pulled into this mess because their greed outweighs us all
If I can see it, so can you, and I'm just an idiot with a pen
As above, so below
Dug our graves, undertow
Legacy, of disgrace
What do we, leave behind but collapse?
As above, so below
Dug our graves, undertow
Legacy, of disgrace
What do we, leave behind but wastelands?
Now that we're all fucked, we're only left with our own shame
The fall of man set from whence we came
Damned from the start
Nothing left to say, and there's nothing we can do
Our fates forever etched into the stone
It ends, not with a bang... but a whimper
