Like the hungry ghosts that haunt this rotten soil
Insatiable appetites for the impossible
Raped, defiled and plundered her abundance in spades
The detritus of a failed landscape remains
In the throes of an inherent annihilation
Atrabilious to the very marrow
Steadfast to displace a pagan past
Worshipping the Inorganic
Until the Skyscrapers mark our tombstones here
Mouldering away in shallow self tilled graves
Collective coffin culture hits that final nail
Skeletal lords of the debris never appeased
Bleed the stone in the name of unrivalled avarice
Like contagium it crawls through decaying urban sprawls
This death wish fixative, hum to the tune of our Requiem
Headfirst into a Draconian impasse
Perpetuate this war pandemic
Until the Skyscrapers mark our tombstones here
Witness our ways return to naught
Skies torn asunder as the oceans boil
Castrate her impotent
A century of petty theft has robbed our cradle bare
Until the skyscrapers mark our tombstones here
