Godforsaken

Soothsayers predict a holocaust Corrupt politicians, defend this way of living Whatever the loss - at any cost Where did we go wrong? We crossed the finishing line And burnt our sinking ships Has god forsaken us? Multinational corporate greed Feed on the poor and the weak No matter what race or creed The future looks depressingly bleak Once a privileged race Now living on borrowed time Sins of our fathers, catching up Breathing down our necks We pray for salvation In this world of mutilation Man's fate - termination In this world of deprivation (mutilation - dehumanization) We've been digging our own mass grave For god knows how many centuries Killing our own flesh an blood Spreading disease, killing the trees Third stone form the sun Suffering from ignorant neglect Our home - mother earth Mankind refused to show respect We never expected the end To be from heaven sent It was death from above That struck down with evil intent Gotterd ummerung - twilight of the gods As the world slowly stops to turn "sins be as scarlet, they shall be white as snow" What did we gain, what did we learn?
