The Prophets of Loss - Cattle Decapitation

Infancy Sheds the warning

an evolution of ignoring the imminent

undetermined future of wrongdoing

our fruits withering, their luster lost to the aether

Surround us with your ignorance

Smother us in environmental dissonance

Take what’s yours and leave the rest to rot

be the bastard decency forgot

Never think

Never look back

No immediate gain nothing to lose, no one to blame

seven billion other idiots thinking the same

exponential is the loss, the future’s not a game

The prophecy was true and every threat has been retained

O, the prophets speak of calamity through their corpses

predetermining the fates of future generations

Heed their warnings now, all humans bear the cost

The clergy of doom, the prophets of loss

…Ave Delphinus

…Selachimorpha

…Dinoflagellata

…Chelinoidea

…Cetacea

Certain doom — assured destruction of finite ecosystems

You may not know it now, but your children are fucked

and their children’s futures are ruined, they’ll take part in the ultimate do

in of earth, resources, the grand «undoing»

Sustainability unobtainable

Heed this warning now, as you carry the cross

From the clergy of doom, the prophets of loss

We fucking die tonight and that’s perfectly alright with me
