Colony Collapse by Kilprz Lyrics
Slow but sure
The rise of tide and temperature
We look the other way
While we're slowly pushed to boil
We’re all so aware
Yet we pray for the bliss of ignorance
Not to stare
Up the barrel
We burn
Beyond repair
Brightly
Not willing to
Compromise or share
If this planet dies
We die with it
Without us
Earth would be fine
So burn
Have it your way
Watch the future collapse
Growing inequity
Cruelty and war
The rich keep the resources
Hungry are all
Dead in the streets
Mass grave earth
A whole generation
Stillbirth
Wash away
The sins of the past
And drown the sinners too
For they know who they are
They know what they do
And they never cared about you!
Once it falls
They'll milk it for profit
To fund their own exodus
None for all
Millions will perish
We're nothing to them
Cataclysmic collapse
Is imminent
How many of us must die
Before you’ll rise up
And take earth back?
They are
Modern day slavers
They are
The scourge of the earth
They own
The entire system
So burn it to the ground
Rise from the ashes
We will
Either rise or die
We can't
Stay silent or neutral
Our lives
Are at stake
So tear it all down, make a difference
Wash away
The sins of the past
And drown the sinners too
For they know who they are
They know what they do
And they never cared about you!
Bring out the guillotine
It's time for a change
If it's us or them
Let's get ahead
Bring out the guillotine
Your crimes will be punished
Swiftly
Bring out the guillotine
We the people
Have decreed
Your redundancy
Bring out the guillotine
Nothing left to say
Your days are numbered
The rise of tide and temperature
We look the other way
While we're slowly pushed to boil
We’re all so aware
Yet we pray for the bliss of ignorance
Not to stare
Up the barrel
We burn
Beyond repair
Brightly
Not willing to
Compromise or share
If this planet dies
We die with it
Without us
Earth would be fine
So burn
Have it your way
Watch the future collapse
Growing inequity
Cruelty and war
The rich keep the resources
Hungry are all
Dead in the streets
Mass grave earth
A whole generation
Stillbirth
Wash away
The sins of the past
And drown the sinners too
For they know who they are
They know what they do
And they never cared about you!
Once it falls
They'll milk it for profit
To fund their own exodus
None for all
Millions will perish
We're nothing to them
Cataclysmic collapse
