Death Atlas

Atlas, the deed is done
Mankind has come and gone
Carbon-based life forms
Reset to day one
Fire now rages on

We thought we had enough time
To redesign through human minds
To do our time for this life of crime
Seems this is the end of the line
We casketed hope in bureaucracy
Sunk to the bottom of the sea
Out of sight, out of mind
Out of love for money

We deserve everything that's coming
We'll take this world to our graves

There's no fear for tomorrow
When there's no trust for today
There's no ever after
Debts have to be paid

We deserve everything that's coming
We took this world to our graves
We made its creatures our slaves
Shattered the hourglass
An un-erasable past
Humans, demons
Deranged and depraved

We deserve everything that's coming
We deserve everything that's coming
We deserve everything that's coming
We took this world to our graves

We deserve everything that's coming
We deserve everything that's coming
We deserve everything that's coming
We took this world to our graves

Alas, the deed is done
Mankind now dead and gone
Post-Anthropocene
Earth reset to day one
Fire now rages on

There's no fear for tomorrow
When there's no trust for today
There's no ever after, debts have to be paid

We deserve everything that's coming
We took this world to our graves
We made its creatures our slaves
Shattered the hourglass, an un-erasable past
Humans, demons deranged and depraved

And I count the days till we expire our ways
And I count the days till we expire for always

To be alive is to survive everything
To make due with anything, until we die
To be alive is to squander everything
To stumble towards anything, to feel alive
