The human stain

[see the cemetery sky
carmine red and deep
watch the oceans rising high
it´s the human stain]
talk about the growing hunger
ask why with deep concern
don´t you think
the human race is censelessly vain
but it hurts to be alive my friend
in this silent tide we´re drifwood passing by
don´t you wish you were a child again
just for a minute
just for a minute more
bear the ticking of a clock
the sound of life itself
no one really wants to die
to save the world
tell me that you´re torn asunder
from how we fail to learn
and tell me
as the earth goes under
where´s your anger now
so it hurts to be alive my friend
in this masquerade where all one day must die
don´t you wish you were unborn again
just for a minute
just for a minute more
tic toc
the ticking that could tear asunder
the beating from a heart of stone
the loss of your divine prosperity
cause it costs to be alive my friend
and this life that someone merely gave to you
that´s the price you pay
minute by minute
you beg for a minute more
