lyrics

What will be will be
Even though it pains me to see all the waste we've created

Every Industry
Every Company Keeps on paying
To test natures hatred

Push the boundaries one two three
A planted seed a burning tree
A farce of a democracy
Utopia within our reach
Cracks will form begin to show
A jungle out of concrete grows
I know which way I'd rather go
So slow the fuckin' tempo

Why the fuck would you want to kill yourself
Why the fuck would you kill anyone else
Can't you see
Can't you see that we're all one
With all the planets and the moons and the Sun
Don't resist your connection to the all
Even if you think yourself small
Tall beings you are inside
This fall will teach us all to ride its wave

Not find extinction
A work of fiction
With rhyme and reason
We called this season

We planned it so well to escape from the planet
To blast off from earth and into the heavens
But failed to see all the mess that we'd made
In the wake of the way that we chose to get by
Now we look down and ask

So are you ready to face the
Blizzard that's coming the race you were running
Was nothing but fake now we're shaking apart
You take without thinking
The poison you're drinking
Indulgently sinking back into the dark
Instead of evolving we keep on revolving
In circles until we spring up from its path
Upward and outward spiralling stars
Stay in the flow and we'll all do our part
Healing the oceans and clearing the skies
Ensuring that wartime can never revive
Or stay in the circle
And stay in disguise
And never realise that you're living a fucking lie.

Tonight, we fly
Tomorrow we'll rise
