"Decolonizer" lyrics
A cold decision made with derision
Collectively, appropriation of demise
Of rats and of ruin, depleted
Collapse unfolds before our eyes
We have exploited every contingency
The rape of a salted earth
Given enough time, this was inevitable
Corruption clandestine
A furtive intent
A vision in decline
Scraped and scoured, there's nothing left but bone
Gnawed to dust and ground with the marrow
Exploited every possibility
Tilled the soil to find only death below
Cleaved by a primordial dissonance
A greater good undone by the covetous
Corruption clandestine
A furtive intent
A vision in decline
Gazing upon all of our works in despair
For our past tethered to us like a leech
As the onset of time marches on
Despite all our greatest futile efforts
Unchecked reproduction at an exponential, exponential rate
Self imposed conspiracy against the human, against the human race
Finally a chance to see the writing on the, writing on the wall
Do we choose to save ourselves or decolonize
Do we choose to save ourselves or decolonize, once and for all
The stars breathe a sigh of relief as our collective
Consciousness decides the path of our continued
Existence naught, we've reached a consensus
The apotheosis of nullity led to the
Divinization of unbeing, cult of demise
Lessen ourselves from the burden, so gratefully
A joyous return to the void
The only recompense
For the damage we have wrought
The penitential whip
The stars breathe a sigh of relief as our collective
Consciousness decides the path of our continued
Existence naught, we've reached a consensus
The apotheosis of nullity led to the
Divinization of unbeing, cult of demise
Lessen ourselves from the burden, so gratefully
A joyous return to the void
The only recompense
For the damage we have wrought
The penitential whip
Burn out the scars collected through centuries
Constant admission of guilt through brutality
We'll do it again, compulsively conquer
A pox on this earth, a stain never to be erased
At the highest pitch of an infinite longing in rapturous form
Burgeoning forth a bleak interminable viscosity of prebiotic pullulation
Evacuate all traces of humate cognate in favor the chthonic
Cut short the perpetual timeline, decolonize
Collectively, appropriation of demise
Of rats and of ruin, depleted
Collapse unfolds before our eyes
We have exploited every contingency
The rape of a salted earth
Given enough time, this was inevitable
Corruption clandestine
A furtive intent
A vision in decline
Scraped and scoured, there's nothing left but bone
Gnawed to dust and ground with the marrow
Exploited every possibility
Tilled the soil to find only death below
Cleaved by a primordial dissonance
A greater good undone by the covetous
Corruption clandestine
A furtive intent
A vision in decline
Gazing upon all of our works in despair
For our past tethered to us like a leech
As the onset of time marches on
Despite all our greatest futile efforts
Unchecked reproduction at an exponential, exponential rate
Self imposed conspiracy against the human, against the human race
Finally a chance to see the writing on the, writing on the wall
Do we choose to save ourselves or decolonize
Do we choose to save ourselves or decolonize, once and for all
The stars breathe a sigh of relief as our collective
Consciousness decides the path of our continued
Existence naught, we've reached a consensus
The apotheosis of nullity led to the
Divinization of unbeing, cult of demise
Lessen ourselves from the burden, so gratefully
A joyous return to the void
The only recompense
For the damage we have wrought
The penitential whip
The stars breathe a sigh of relief as our collective
Consciousness decides the path of our continued
Existence naught, we've reached a consensus
The apotheosis of nullity led to the
Divinization of unbeing, cult of demise
Lessen ourselves from the burden, so gratefully
A joyous return to the void
The only recompense
For the damage we have wrought
The penitential whip
Burn out the scars collected through centuries
Constant admission of guilt through brutality
We'll do it again, compulsively conquer
A pox on this earth, a stain never to be erased
At the highest pitch of an infinite longing in rapturous form
Burgeoning forth a bleak interminable viscosity of prebiotic pullulation
Evacuate all traces of humate cognate in favor the chthonic
Cut short the perpetual timeline, decolonize
