Grind away the skies above And dismantle darkened clouds Incinerate the blighted earth Fan the flame of your demise Trampled life beneath the weight of a thousand locust hordes The strip-mine devastation leaves us broken, bruised and blind Kill and make a stranger of your enemy Kill and make a stranger of your family tree How long before you and I are worth our weight in gold? Sacrificial slaughter so the upper crust could breathe Ignorance is bliss until you watch the hammer fall As the waves crash down your cities crumble over and over and fall Crushing all that sits beneath your precious fucking crown Swell the seas to cleanse us of our crimes Trust we so foolishly put in you Let you take control of all we have Trust we so foolishly put in you Let you take control Consuming every last resource until the rivers flow with tears The cancer of this tattered earth finally disappeared Ignorance is bliss until you watch the hammer fall As the waves crash down your cities crumble over and over and fall Crushing all that sits beneath your precious fucking crown Swell the seas to cleanse us of our crimes Lay back and close your eyes Breathe deep and end your life Kill and make a stranger of your enemy Kill and make a stranger of your family tree Ignorance is bliss until you watch the hammer fall As the waves crash down your cities crumble over and over and fall Crushing all that sits beneath your precious fucking crown Swell the seas to cleanse me of my crimes Cleanse me of my crimes
