August Burns Red - The Wake Lyrics
Destroy everything cleanseWipe away the filthSet fire to your wasteBurn everythingBack into dirtBurn everythingFlood, drown the earthFlood, drown the earthIt's what we deserveRehash the poisonsYou breathe in the airTear down what you say your father createdConstructing buildings over buildingsConceal history like a shameful scarThis world has lived for a million years with more to comeIt's only a matter of time until you choke on your indifferenceStruggling to breathe as the water fills your lungsTrying hard to scream as it rises into your throatThe reckless, the carelessWill reign until the oceans riseFlood, drown the earthFlood, drown the earthIt's what we deserveIt's what we deserveIt's what we deserveIt's what we deserveIt's what we deserveThis world has lived for a million years with more to comeIt's only a matter of time until you choke on your indifferenceStruggling to breathe as the water fills your lungsTrying hard to scream as it rises into your throatWake upAnd save yourselfThe sea will reclaimWhat it worked to createWake upSave yourselfPick up the piecesAsk for forgiveness
