Be Still Our Bleeding Hearts

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Every new life is a tragedy in waiting A fresh beginning for hopelessness A new chance to infiltrate, build, then destroy [Refrain] We all lose everything now We all have no other way out Bizarre, this undying love for this species Oppressing the elements we are made of [Pre-Chorus] The soil is rotten The oceans forgotten The glaciers now molten In our tracks we are frozen [Chorus] Be still our bleeding hearts Death is part of life Embrace time's eraser Ditch the ignorant philanthropy The scale has tipped and not in our favor [Post-Chorus] Approaching eight billion and counting Sadly, we require disease, mass murder and blind genocide [Verse 2] Every new death is a step towards preservation Eradication in training An inch towards progress for the future of life [Refrain] We all lose everything now We all have no other way out [Chorus] Be still our bleeding hearts Death is part of life Embrace time's eraser Ditch the ignorant philanthropy The scale has tipped and not in our favor [Post-Chorus] Approaching eight billion and counting Unfortunately, we require disease, mass fatalities and extinguishing We have nowhere to run This battle already lost to ourselves by the billions [Outro] Human life is simply not sustainable
