We choose to silence words Acting in desperation Freedom was undeserved We suffocate the earth Silencing innovation It's only getting worse Self inflicted atrophy Void of all progression The world we see today Reveals it's cracked foundations Crumbles and falls away Beneath our feet it burns Collapsing under pressure Progression went astray Living for false ecstasy Void of all progression Poisoning If we start to disregard and hack away at the land Will we see in time we're straining that on which we stand? Worsening Nowhere left to run to, concrete grounded into sand No time left to make amends, we fell at our own hands Suffering Poisoned planet We can't sustain this purge Destructive corporations Take all for what it's worth We choose to ravage worlds We violate this haven There's nowhere left to turn Drowning in our apathy Void of all progression Rejected by the world Infectious parasite Deflecting from the warmth The more we see the light, the more we're blind Worsening We choose to silence worlds We choose to poison words Suffering, we started this purge We choose to make it all worse for ourselves
