Death Atlas - Cattle Decapitation

Alas, the deed is done

Mankind has come and gone

Carbon-based life forms reset to day one

Fire now rages on

We thought we had enough time

To redesign through human minds

To do our time for this life of crime

Seems this is the end of the line

We casketed hope in bureaucracy, sunk to the bottom of the sea

Out of sight, out of mind, out of love for money

We deserve everything that’s coming

We’ll take this world to our graves

There’s no fear for tomorrow

When there’s no trust for today

There’s no ever after

Debts have to be paid

We deserve everything that’s coming

We took this world to our graves

We made its creatures our slaves

Shattered the hourglass

An unerasable past

Humans, demons deranged and depraved

We deserve everything that’s coming

We deserve everything that’s coming

We deserve everything that’s coming

We took this world to our graves

We deserve everything that’s coming

We deserve everything that’s coming

We deserve everything that’s coming

We took this world to our graves

Alas, the deed is done

Mankind now dead and gone

Post-Anthropocene, Earth reset to day one

Fire now rages on

There’s no fear for tomorrow

When there’s no trust for today

There’s no ever after

Debts have to be paid

We deserve everything that’s coming

We took this world to our graves

We made its creatures our slaves

Shattered the hourglass

An unerasable past

Humans, demons deranged and depraved

And I count the days 'til we expire our ways

And I count the days 'til we expire for always

To be alive is to survive everything

To make do with anything, until we die

To be alive is to squander everything

To stumble towards anything, to feel alive
