Only Human Lyrics

Earth spawned heaven plague
Dreaming of immortality
Free will
Foul stench
The imperfect perverted stain of humanity
The new era of extinction has begun
Procreation never ceasing
Rotted minds adrift
In the cesspool of brutality
The beauty of the world
Reduced to concrete coffins
Desolate mirrors
Of dead futures never lived
Unnatural augmentation of decay

[chorus]
ignorant sentient virus draining all that he lays claim
He's driven to exterminate himself for what remains
A self-defeating pox to waste away into the wind
To think he actually matters is only human
Fighting each other over resources
They waste the precious oxygen that sustains all other life
In the rare cases that they choose to unite
It's only to better strip the land
Or find some new way to murder each other

[Solo: Colin Butler]

Praying for help
No one answers the call
Just the cold march of time
With its deaths to divide
Amongst those that have prayed
Purposeless trash
They are greedy and cold
And nothing will save them
Diseased bags of flesh
Begging for their lives
While the rich live lavishly
Consolidating power
Propaganda spreads
And the sickness continues to eat at their hearts
Building bigger bombs
The purpose of life
Factories expelling the
Poisonous fumes
Plastic tombs
Tools for their self-important validation

[chorus]
[Solo: Craig Peters]
[Solo: Colin Butler]

Know that man will fall
And with it all dreams
Beliefs hopes and fantasies
The beginning of the end is already here
Picturesque decline of a species
When that day does come
They'll finally share something somewhat peacefully
Hell upon the earth
Violent deaths
And their fate to be forgotten

[Solo: Colin Butler]

Full of themselves
They will soon fade away
And there will be no one there
To cry over their decaying bones
No plans is devised
They accept their demise
And prepare for the end
Line up lay down and die!

[chorus]

Hell bound
Humankind
Bargaining for infamy
Bound by selfish needs
The imperfect temporary stain of humanity

[Solo: Colin Butler]
