Rise And Fall

(앨범: Once Only Imagined - 2007)

This human incompetence and this consequence
Sub-human intolerance hitting home
This stupid old prejudice and its consequence
Civilian rights are not right for all deserve rights
Large and small

Rise and fall
Each breath could be the last
Chances have all come and passed

Why can't we just shake the urge to end everything
Property lines slice through the earth
The sudden urge to control our surroundings
Money and time now define their worthless
We rise and we fall

Rise and fall
Each breath could be the last
Chances have all come and passed

Fighting for land to own
And man will always find reasons for war
Fighting wars yields bitter rewards
So let's contemplate what to fight for

From the oceans we rise
To the ashes we fall
All for one
Not one for all

Where do we go when we no longer exist
Apologies are useless, they're nothing, they're impotent
To savor the taste of youth and sweet control
Hierarchol classes split the masses
Pray your ranking's high
Off-white
Low-life
Nuisance in a flawless life
Ground underfoot like ashes
The world's a fucking gas chamber

Populations rise and fall
