Humanity's a failed experiment

Walking the path to extinction

Spinning it's wheels endlessly

Grease them with oil and uranium

The earth will shake

and the waters will rise

The elements reclaim what was taken



The skyline is set ablaze with regret

Ashes cover a falling silhouette

The city will reap what it's sewn and ignite

Watching as the city burns tonight



Blindly consuming mass manufactured faith

Mankind is a festering parasite

Relentlessly draining it's host dry

Nailing belief to a cross of genocide

The elements reclaim what was taken



The skyline is set ablaze with regret

Ashes cover a falling silhouette

The city will reap what it's sewn and ignite

Watching as the city burns tonight



Only after the last tree's cut

And the last river poisoned

Only after the last fish is caught

Will you find that money cannot be eaten



And everything becomes irrelevant

As the sky tears open

Fire rains down,

the fourth world comes to an end

Push the button light the match

feel the fault lines detach

Crosshairs in the evening light

I sit and watch the city burn tonight



The city burns tonight
