Scorched Earth by Exhuminator Lyrics

Earth

Disfigured beyond recognition
A symptom of the human condition

Like ants they scattered
Found safety deep within the ground
As skies rained fire upon them
Making ash of all around

And as those who would survive Were outlived by appetite
Their children’s sacrifice
Was granted by divine right

Charred by armageddon
And untainted by age
This forbidden flesh confection A small price for life to pay

In times of desperation
Their bonds would easily break
As they were free to feast on
Those who they had betrayed

Disfigured beyond recognition
A symptom of the human condition
A world left frail
By the years of malnutrition

By the moments
That followed the spark
By the fire
That brought the endless dark
The final moments crawling in the dark, The final moments crawling in the dark
