Nihil morari (homines fabula finis)

"See me""
Hear me""
Need me"
Some things will never change"
Touch me""
Heal me"
Mankind remains the same OceansForestsNationsNow everything bears our name
While Earth is bleeding
Nothing will remain
Nothing prevails We were stuck in this world of change
Expecting it to remain
Now nothing is left unstained No! When there's nothing more that we can tradeOwnSteal
Or sell When there's nothing whole because we took it apartAnd
Just left
Moved on When there's nothing left for us to breakUseAbuse
Or rape Then you're free to count how much you saved I can see the ways we fail
I can see us fall so easily
A structure far too frail
I can see 40,000 years of knowledge and history
Invested in this child
Spoiled and stained by proud divinity
Gaining at best the perspective and wisdom
Of not even a fleeting century We have now reached the final ten thousandth of a secondof our evolutionary year, as we hit 2,000 at a birth rateof 250 people a minute Tell me
How are we supposed to survive?
If we're acting like fools
All dropping dead to stay alive'Someone tell me
Please just show me
If there's nothing to do, God we'll turn to you
But if we're an image of you
I reckon you are just as puzzled and ugly too You think we have developed fast; that we're civilized and intelligentI'll let you in on a secret: we have developed Things!The rest is simply knowledge passed on(
I can see us drain this world
I can see us buying loss too cheap
Terra Sterilia washing its bronken hand of us nowCreation's blackest sheep!)
Hell, 99% of humanity couldn't put together a simple light bulb if youput a gun to their heads!
And the intellect rubs off on fear The year 2,010 AD: 6,823 Million people2,020 AD: 7,518 Million people2,030 AD: 8,140 Million people2,040 AD: 8,668 Million people2,050 AD: 9,104 Million people I can see us read the signs
But spell them out in backward travesty
I see us close our eyes
To all the wounds that we inflict to this world by being "free"We love this world to death
Purchasing our lifestyles with our lives
Defending our momentarily nations
With the loss of our priceless earthly home It's not hard to reach the topIt's not hard not knowing when to stopIt's not hard to take all
Not very difficult to fly if you settle for a fallIt's not hard to cross a lineIt's not hard to push and go to far
Some creatures cannot climb
Then there are us who cannot even learn how to stay alive I'm sorry!
For the things we did and did not do
Forgive us; the fools that rushed ahead without a clue
I am sorry
Please forgive us
For this human lack of humanity
This evolutionary travesty
This tragedy called "Man"...called "Man"... I'm sorry!
For the things we did and didn't do
Forgive us; the fools that rushed ahead without a single clue...without a single clue...
