lyrics

People, all my people, come and see,
You broke my heart today,
As a race and as a place where i could,
Fill the empty space,
The day we dropped the bomb.

All my hope is fleeting, so depleting,
It tosses and it turns, like a filthy earthen worm,
Stretching down the lines,
Down the fracking mines,
The realm of Vulcan rising,

Weep for the polar bear on its knee,
Made early to retire,
Baptized in the fire as the smoke erected spires,
The flame of the Artic Tundra,

Feebly bent the shadows went, chased away by a smog of grey,
All repent for a picket fence, dash away all common sense,
As if nothing had arrived, as if everyone survived,
I wonder how the years will bring the stinging curse of pompous kings,
The stinging curse of rotting wings,
The stinging curse of toxic rings,
The molten vow all these things,
The day our logic died,

People, all my people, come and see.
