we have destroyed this world, and it will destroy us
This world we call home
this place we destroy
This land that has died
the earth that we killed

The trees turn to paper
their beauty forever lost
the sky turns to dark
by the smoke we spew with our cars and our trucks
we're killing this earth without second thought

We see the things we see
for what it could be
but not what it is
and the beauty they behold

As we kill the earth the earth will kill us
the things we enjoyn they all soon disappear
and we will all fall into hell
