I set off on a journey through barren lands laid waste
Callin' out the demons wild, facin' down my disgrace
There inside my solitude I searched for some respite
Things could've been much different if I'd had the will to fight
|
For days on end a scream resides a breath-width from my tongue
No sound escapes to resonate against the aging sun
Rememb'ring how I'd had the chance to help to stem the greed
That stole so much from each of us, and left us all in need
|
Now I have a hunger for more than much-missed food
I want back the life I lived, before they made it crude
But now it's just a relic lost, a memory fading fast
And the time to stand up has long gone past
|
Although we heard her crying
And often felt her dread
We didn't lift one finger to help her
And now, yes oh now
Our planet's dead
|
The river black cuts my soul, a snake slicing through the fog
Every tree -- so green before -- is now a crumbled log
The sky once blue is wearing now an overcoat of grime
I could have stood for so much more, had I but made the time
|
I set off on a journey through barren lands laid waste
Callin' out the demons wild, facin' down my disgrace
Here is where I now reside, a refuge in my mind
Swept by wind, scarred by sand, a place best left behind
|
Now I have a hunger for more than much-missed food
I want back the life I lived, before they made it crude
But now it's just a relic lost, a memory fading fast
And the time to stand up has long gone past
|
Although we heard her crying
And often felt her dread
We didn't lift one finger to help her
And now, yes oh now
Our planet's dead
|
Didn't we heard her crying
Couldn't we feel her dread
We didn't lift one finger to help her
And now, yes oh now
Our planet's dead
