1. EMBEDDED

Wood
Soil
The roots entangle with the earth
A tragic last embrace
We rip them from their homes
Leaving empty root holes
The wooded genocide
A crime that we can't hide
But those same roots
Will turn against us
Ensnaring
Dragging us down
When we've destroyed ourselves
The roots entangle with our buildings
Triumphant new embrace


2. MOONLIT

Millions of years
Of geologic processes
Burned in one night
We've forgotten moonlight
The moon sits alone
In the blackened sky
It shines for
Fewer of us every night
The moon sits alone
In the blackened sky
We've forgotten moonlight


3. SNOWCAPPED

Snowcapped mountains
Looming over cities
Majestic peaks
Covered in frozen water
The waters once
Abundant in these lands
Will be gone
The desert will rule
Once again
No rain
No snow
Just drought
And sorrow
All of this consumed by man
Rivers run dry in this land


4. THE SEA

Because of our technologies
The sea will drown our cities
Our waste comes back to haunt us
The cost of our unnatural lives
Because of our technologies
The sea will drown our cities
Homes slowly pulled beneath the water
With every passing day
That we don't change our ways
The waters will rise
To take us away


5. WEAKENED

Destruction
Consumption
Pollution
Extinction
We infect the planet
It must rid the disease
This weakened state
Is only temporary
This weakened state
It can't last long
The earth will take our food
For it is unrevered
With nothing left to eat
We'll perish slowly
We infect the planet
It must rid the disease
Destruction
Consumption
Pollution
Extinction


6. FORESTS OF THE NIGHT

Gone
The once tree covered
Landscapes of the earth
Barren and suburban
Infested by man
For what was taken
Was never returned
Dead wood conformed
For futile uses
The memory
Fading
Now our planet dies
But we turn our eyes away
Now that we're at the end
We see what we can't mend
The forests thinned and weak
While all we do is speak
We've raped our mother
It seems that oedipus was true
We ravaged all that we knew
The earth will have revenge
It won't go quietly
From underneath your feet
The rocks will crumble
Swallow you whole
And take you down
