Cursed Earth by Civil Disobedience Lyrics
Off with my head and on with the show...
By the grace of none but it shall be done
This cursed earth shall burn and these wretched men shall learn
Humbled by the heavens? Not soon enough
Civilisation [sic] sublimated by the boiling crust
Nowhere to nest for the human rats...
Science fiction forges fact and actors no longer need to act
Grey seas of men and not a space under the sun
Unborn life we foolishly swore to protect
Our earth stripped bare, left devouring our own flesh
Barren rock, shifting sands, deadly radiation, invention extinction
Barren rock, shifting sands, deadly raciation [sic], let loose by careless hands
In a flash of solar heat invention and extinction briefly meet
Followed by the atomic wake, as nuclear fires seal our fate
By the grace of none but it shall be done
This cursed earth shall burn and these wretched men shall learn
Humbled by the heavens? Not soon enough
Civilisation [sic] sublimated by the boiling crust
Nowhere to nest for the human rats...
Science fiction forges fact and actors no longer need to act
Grey seas of men and not a space under the sun
Unborn life we foolishly swore to protect
Our earth stripped bare, left devouring our own flesh
Barren rock, shifting sands, deadly radiation, invention extinction
Barren rock, shifting sands, deadly raciation [sic], let loose by careless hands
In a flash of solar heat invention and extinction briefly meet
Followed by the atomic wake, as nuclear fires seal our fate
