How rotten it is, true to see Is burning bridges, among burning trees Redact your senses, among this pyre Will see our ends, in this burning fire We gave our joy, for selfishness and greed We developed a bloodlust, a mighty need We ate the meek, and burned the rest Now we wait for our rewards, in jest This is humanity, blanketed with deceit But it smiles at corruption, and always eats This machine is burning bones, ever so much When we lose all the bones, we will lose touch Humanity smiles, with a bloodied grin Blaming the innocent for its sin This is so, this is such A blood starved beast, lusting for much

How rotten it is, true to see Is burning bridges, among burning trees Redact your senses, among this pyre Will see our ends, in this burning fire We gave our joy, for selfishness and greed We developed a bloodlust, a mighty need We ate the meek, and burned the rest Now we wait for our rewards, in jest This is humanity, blanketed with deceit But it smiles at corruption, and always eats This machine is burning bones, ever so much When we lose all the bones, we will lose touch Humanity smiles, with a bloodied grin Blaming the innocent for its sin This is so, this is such A blood starved beast, lusting for much
