Worldburners Unite - Pandemic Mix

See the tower through the trees
Give way to smoky memories
Worldburners unite
The letters and the laws
The meaning and the cause
Worldburners unite

And I'm not young
I'm closer to death than birth
And one thing that I've learned
Is we've got no place here on Earth
So I say the cities and the towns
We're gonna take 'em down
Worldburners unite
Worldburners unite

What is there to do
When everything we doctor
When everything we build
Is stained by our touch?
When everywhere we go
Is somewhere visited by someone?
The madness here is circular
The madness here is us

And what is there to do
When the groundwater's poison
When rabies goes pandemic
Overcoming all vaccines?
A network tech cuts every cord
A painter shreds her canvas
A congressman leaps from a plane
And for the first time he is clean

See the tower through the trees
Give way to smoky memories
Worldburners unite
The letters and the laws
The meaning and the cause
Worldburners unite

And I'm not young
I'm closer to death than birth
And one thing that I've learned
Is we've got no place here on Earth
So I say the cities and the towns
We're gonna take 'em down
Worldburners unite
Worldburners unite

You are not a hero
You are not a god
You are no protagonist
Advancing any plot
And every grain of knowledge
Over every grain of sand
Is an anchor, is a dragon
Breeding watchfulness and rot

Somewhere there's a field of ice
Somewhere there's a ravine
But I'm afraid to show you where
For fear, you'll crash the scene
Fly away, all senses
Fly away, our spells
'Cause nobody ever asked for us
Least of all ourselves

See the tower through the trees
Give way to smoky memories
Worldburners unite
The letters and the laws
The meaning and the cause
Worldburners unite

And I'm not young
I'm closer to death than birth
And one thing that I've learned
Is we've got no place here on Earth
So I say the cities and the towns
We're gonna take 'em down
Worldburners unite
