Here once stood

One hundred million species

Undiscovered until extinction

Here once stood

Unnatural amounts of prey turned product

Mechanized slaughter

The sentient flaunted their machinist superiority

An ersatz compensation for real instincts lost

Millennia of ancestry,

Plowed down for modern industry

The solution to their housing crisis

Was in fact the cause

So why not humanity for habitats

Because they are damned if they do

and damned when they can't!

Euthanasia is a crimless death penalty

but it's still better than what they get

when tortured, brutally murdered,

because some f**king coward can't make a clean living

So he picks on the voiceless children

Well they're not smart like us,

they won't feel a thing!'

Thats a fact? Please explain!

Why should we even care?

The things we destroyed did not need to be there.

It's survival of the selfish!

The bi-pedal tyrant goes down with his ship in the end

Here once stood

Invented laws and morals

Applicable to selective followers

And, as such, rulers reserved the right

To control matters of death and life

... oxygen and oceans...

Metal rusts, cement crumbles

To err is human, not divine

Prayers are so intently mumbled

When proud man is forced to decline

Why should we even care?

The things we destroyed did not need to be there.

It's survival of the selfish!

The bi-pedal tyrant goes down with his ship in the end
