lyrics

Once upon a time, when I seeped with wisdom
Nestled deep in your earth, nurturing mankind from its birth
Your weeds have borne steel and I weep for your hunger
As your forces grow stronger it is I who remember your crimes

Ignorant to the blasted fields and wilted air
Complacent to a fallen future and a fate laid bare
And you would gouge your own mother from within to beget dust and skeletons
I watch you betray yourselves and she is too withered to care

Once upon a time, they beseeched me for guidance
Groveled on their knees for the wisdom of the trees
Now I reap their disease, their pitiful defiance
These dregs of science in sorrow and hatred entwined

Decrepit crops unsought by mankind
Scarecrows laid bare for the starving soil
You would choke willingly upon your mother's ashes
And rue in millenia of reckoning
