The Sentient [Lullabies for the Dormant Mind 2009]
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 fucking 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
