The heart beats in irregular patterns, the blood runs cold A shell rotting from the inside out, all hope is lost The fate depends on the loyal, the wretched devour it whole My outlook grows grim, Mother, forgive us our sins Driven by a product of our own creation Greasing the wheels of this concrete jungle And when it stops we can hear her Scream, Forsake it all and return to me Why do we destroy our home, Why can"t we leave well enough alone Our Mothers dying The Birth of Suffering Given nurture to repay with torture, Our precision with global extinction Symbiotic delusions of grandeur, Insidious to the core Wake ourselves from this empty existence and return to her arms Her children estranged, longing for her tender embrace We have lost something precious, Ill make you see The Birth of Suffering Are we still naive? Mother, save us from ourselves Theres no hope for life Extinction starts tonight The state of this earth gives birth to the end
