Life, that spark that trajects us into this heavenly body That makes us these carbon-based systems Predators and victims of a life on this Earth We are birthed with the worst intentions Intent to condemn everything with inventions We're born to destroy and obsessed with the thought of destruction Upon nascency, we become casualties We walk the edge of the scythe taunting eternity An abnormality since our maternity A certain carnality for our mortality Ever the victim of eyes inside our mind That sees this life as an affliction So dead inside, the plot thickens with sickness showing symptoms Extinguished synapses smoldering with persistence Of a mind hellbent on suicide A life in love with despair In a world beyond repair A global consensus that the powers that be are against us Helplessness beyond compare We're flying too close to the sun We play with fire, we tempt our fate Life alights the flame to burn our hate We fall like heavenly bodies burning We fall in the cracks of her earthquake Might be too late We're flying too close to the sun We play with fire, we tempt our fate Life alights the flame to burn our hate Life, the pulse that leaves us alone on an earth With the worst ideas ever known by the flesh With emotions of stone Poisoning land and the oceans A life in love with despair In a world beyond repair A global consensus that the powers that be are against us Helplessness beyond compare A carbon-based disease That brings all life to its knees
