"Future Of Death" lyrics

A new age, a new life
Well they once said the end is near
A new day, a new light
It's funny that we're all still here
Fifty or a hundred years at best
The scientists put their hopes to rest
And foretold a future of death

But when an old dying tree has lost its power to grow
When a bruised and battered river threatens to overflow
Then it hurts to know that there's nothing you can do
So let it burst, ooh let it burst
Let it burst
