We had such potential
But we squandered our gifts
Never shall my children see the light of day
Our existence decays
Our blind pursuit of technology
Only accelerated our doom
This is our decimation
We are cherishing
Our slow self-destruction
The world is perishing
But life must go on
It is time, no more days is of prime
Blinded by the extravagance
Fooled by our intelligence
Deluded by the hollowness
So empty and shallow
Cherishing
Self-destruction
Perishing
Must go on [2x]
It is time no more days is of prime
We are cherishing
Our slow self-destruction
The world is perishing
But life must go on
We are cherishing
Our slow self-destruction
The world is perishing
But life must go on
Cherishing
Self-destruction
Perishing
Life must go on
