[Intro]
Various audio clips regarding environmental disasters
[Verse 1]
Daily, I ponder the last days of land
The hubris of man and his frivolous gift
How seas overfilled; over continents, spilled
And only ---
--- for decades, it stood
Our final undoing felt ---
Those who had --- offered aid as they could
But charity's feeding ---
[Pre-Chorus]
Over and over, the life that's now ---
---
The world that we squandered, the seas we now wander
A vagrant --- of mankind
[Chorus]
Can you hear?
The mother is weeping
--- poisoned and seething
---
--- existence: relinquished, erased by the fathoms below
[Verse 2]
The nausea poisoned ---
Just three days after the dark waters came
Not from the stench of death's rot on the wind
But from knowledge, from thoughts of ---
Strangers and --- and neighbors alike
Friends I had known for a twenty-year space
Swirled in --- decay
Now, in ---
[Pre-Chorus]
Over and over, the life that's now ---
---
The world that we squandered, the seas we now wander
A vagrant --- of mankind
[Chorus]
Can you hear?
The mother is weeping
--- poisoned and seething
---
--- existence: relinquished, erased by the fathoms below
Erased by the fathoms below
Erased by the fathoms below
[Bridge]
---
Striving for ---
Responding in --- to this matter of taste
Consumption, conspicuous --- waste
Now, like a beast, do I wander the deep
Scavenging wreckage, earning my keep
By day, I slay all who stand in my way
By nightfall, I --- pray/prey
[solo]
[Chorus (Extended)]
Can you hear?
The mother is weeping
--- poisoned and seething
---
--- existence: relinquished, erased by the fathoms below
Can you hear?
The mother is weeping
--- poisoned and seething
Vanishing like ---
The resistance relinquished and life --- extinguished
Erased by the fathoms below
Erased by the fathoms below
