Eden Lies in Ruins

Hear my prophecy!

It's time to reap what we have sown
But withered is the ground
And dried out are the seas
A long time ago we didn't see the signs
Now the time to dream is gone

If I could write a letter to the past
A prophecy of what future will bring
Do you think anything would change?

Now Eden lies in ruins
And silently we've watched
As vengeance came over us
What will be left?
A rotten ruin, once called home

Things will be better, when we're dead and gone
'cause who will miss a parasite?
I will not!
And now we must pay for what we have done
So take a rest and get well soon
'cause maybe tomorrow the next plague will come

We can't deny the echoes
Of our reckless deeds
Oh in the hills they still resound

The route to exile has vanished now
We're standing at the dark
At the dark side of progress
