Eloy - Invasion Of A Megaforce lyrics

rate me

This used to be paradise<br />

At the birth of time<br />

Giving way to free enterprise<br />

Now we're ruled by crime<br />

Frayed, overrun<br />

In the name of prosperity<br />

We tear down, rape the land<br />

In the name of proficiency<br />

Rising so far, shining so bright<br />

Nearing the might of glory and light<br />

Savaged by science machine<br />

There's no place to hide<br />

Disregarding all nature's laws<br />

Have we got no pride?<br />

Why can't you see, can't you feel<br />

Take a look around<br />

Some say yes, some say no<br />

But their vote doesn't make a sound<br />

Rising so far, shining so bright<br />

Nearing the height of glory and light<br />

Just take a look at yourself and you'll find<br />

There's still a chance to break free<br />

Out of oblivion there's hope for new life<br />

To live in sane purity<br />

Take heart and heed to the call of the wild<br />

You'll find a fresh energy<br />

Rising so far, shining so bright<br />

Nearing the height of glory and light<br />

Here at my feet what remains of sociey<br />

Slain by the dark megaforce of technology<br />

Out in the fields you can feel<br />

Warriors gathering<br />

Fighting back without fear<br />

For they see life is withering<br />

Rising so far, shining so bright<br />

Nearing the height of glory and light<br />

We should have left what we don't understand<br />

We've ruined the garden of love<br />

Why did we let it get so out of hand<br />

Instead of gaining control<br />

Why should we put our future at stake<br />

And bear a race without soul<br />

And though I'm part of this hellish mistake<br />

I'm still your child mother earth
