3. Butchered Planet (6:47)
Feel the temperature rise
Burning sun in the sky
Arid future, no fossil fuels
Ice caps melt in the heat

Slowly the planet will die
Fresh water, no rain, dams dry
Carbon gasses, oxide contamination

Inhabitants of the dying planet
Have to stop their destructive habits
New disease from unknown origins
Global warming brings us to our knees

March forward into annihilation
No relocation, only drowning for the masses

More than half of the world's population
Will succumb to dehydration
Paradise becomes a living nightmare
Earlier spring arrival
Will end our survival
Flash flood, drought and wildfire
Other species migrating to higher latitudes

Inhabitants of the dying planet
Have to stop their destructive habits
New disease from unknown origins
Global warming brings us to our knees

March forward into annihilation
No relocation, only drowning for the masses

Maybe there is room on Mars
Or a new colony in the stars

Have we left it too late to make a change
To save our fragile environment

Looming devastation
Of a dying planet
Like a butchered corpse - we rot
On our knees we suffer because of those before us
It's time to make the change

It's time to make the change
It's time to make that move, people
Wake up to yourselves
You gotta dare to care
The time to act is now!

Maybe there is room on Mars
Or a new colony in the stars
Another planet to kill with cars
Have we left it too late to make a change

Have we left it too late to make a change
To save our fragile environment
Carbon build-up is killing the eco-system
Each little change will help

Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
