"mOther" lyrics

"mOther"

I can hear your silent call
'Cause all we have is this impossible world

Adapt or perish, the merciless imperative
The crown of creation? Negative
We're claiming the right to destroy and to rise
Till we're buried under fallen skies

We're turning green to grey
Falling leaves, we suffocate
Devastate, intoxicate
We are nature's sole mistake

So we are lost in the fire
Since our earth became hell
But we still keep on denying
Our mother's decay
Could we change?
If we're just born to die and live to fail
So we are lost in the fire
The price we pay by ourselves

We black out the sun
Dust and dirty air in our lungs
Salvation, there is none, there is none
A burning paradise, burning paradise
Leading to demise, leading to demise

We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still
We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still

We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still
We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still

So we are lost in the fire
Since our earth became hell
But we still keep on denying
Our mother's decay
Could we change?
If we're just born to die and live to fail
So we are lost in the fire
The price we pay by ourselves

Mother, mother
I can feel your aching heart
Mother, mother
Everything is falling apart
Your sun shines in us
Once and for all
Your river flows through us
Swelling in my core
I can hear your silent call
'Cause all we have is this impossible world

What have we become?

So we are lost in the fire
Since our earth became hell
But we still keep on denying
Our mother's decay
Could we change?
If we're just born to die and live to fail
So we are lost in the fire

What have we become?

We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still
We build, we dig, we kill
Until the day grows still
