lyrics

2. Life

cradle of life.
i am nothing
i breathe a hapless note.
tree of life.
beneath the essence you exude, i weep.
this life is shallow, wavering and unkind.
pushing forth towards unknown boundaries.
we disguise the truth with filth and close our eyes to all.
evil, evil, evil, evil, evil wins.

we forget how we came to be.
the beauty of the elements.
the dance of the dawn of time.
and the human plague that grew from the void.

explore, consume, move on.
blanket the terrain with nomadic spores.
rape the soil and poison the air.
you reek of greed and perversion.

silence, silence, silence, silence the disease.
drown them in plague and fear.
crush their faith, suffocate on their filth.
wipe the slate clean, let me breathe once again.
never again will i be trampled.
never again...
this i promise you.

i lack two hands to choke you.
i lack the tools to stop you.
i lack the voice to scold you.
i lack the will to hold you.

my only device is slow punishment,
one you will not see until it is upon you.
i will conquer you with forces beyond your mortal understanding.
the sea, the land, the air.
i will choke you with your own posion.
i will scold you with storms unattestable.
your fate has been in my hands since the beginning.
all your works will be undone.
the exsitence you hold so dear, has always been mine to destroy.

i am the mother.
i am the sea.
i am the soil.
i am the air.
i am the earth.
i am the night.
i am the light.
i end all of life.
