Cradle To The Grave

Seven Billion Reasons Why
Angels fear to tread the land of human beings Only demons live here and even they can't breathe Rot and ruin, above and below A mother and her child, two birds with one stone This depression swept the world without warning Safe and sound in the eye of the storm Every man, woman and child cast into lakes of fire Just to keep the people warm We're all as good as fucking dead The last of the herd died off Too weak to walk. As the vultures slowly picked her apart She watched her children die out in the cold Coughing up blood and gasping for air as they tread the coals We're just a blink in the eye of the universe A blue dot drifting through a fathomless void Lay us down and send us off in our hearse Our last breaths were spent begging to be destroyed Our lady of death I pray, jesus christ weeps blood tonight Let the black drown out the light We bit off more than we could ever hope to chew So when we choke don't say nobody warned you SongtexteIn memory of a species that once was and could have been We traded it all for greed when we had mouths to feed Caught in the acid rain with tongues out trying to get a taste Too late to lift your weight, we all had a sacrifice to make Digging down as we claw through the coffin I watched them fall through the cracks We flew so close to the sun our wings disintegrated Like moths to open flame, dying on our backs Looking up at the world we could've had We all deserve to burn the same All man are pigs and must lay in the flames I've got no more blood left to bleed I'll scream until it kills me Humans are a fucking disease God has abandoned us The storm swept the planet so fast And it was at that moment we knew we couldn't turn back Roll over in regret You've dug your graves now lay in them Aus Songtexte Mania
