Premonition
Call out with fear
No bustle from the hedgerow
Across the water
A prophecy grows
Real world deathtraps
An invisible slaughterhouse
Cognitive dissonance
Bodies burst, overflow with pus and dirt
When the subsidies subsided
The land had changed with the rising tide
Population misguided
Sleepwalking with imminent biocide
Thick clouds for miles and miles
Air unfit to breathe
A nation’s shame foregone conclusion
We face the same fate
With perfect clarity, we’ll hear the final coin drop
It was us against the world
We were on the wrong side
From on high the sirens ring
The only thing you’ll hear
In this silent spring
Pesticide overkill
A cursed cure
A fog you cannot see through
Pain you can’t hope to endure
Now you know how it feels
To be knifed in the back
When we bend nature
The world will bend back
Injustice that you seek to reap
Lies fester in your mouth
Grow roots between your teeth
Your soul face down
Six feet beneath
Feed the earth so starved it wants only what you bleed
Victims of an industry
Born and bred for you
A life destroying dynasty
Nothing left to sell nothing left to lose
You’ve seen the damage done
The pain that lies in wait that’s still come
The skies don’t lie, the evil will come
The moon will rise, crimson and full
