If Hope Dies

If Hope Dies - Who Died And Made Us King? lyrics

rate me

through pure arrogance

mankind has staked its claim

it's left its mark upon

all that surrounds us

there is a darkness rising overhead

shadows that are converging and closing in

we've set forth to conquer

every last inch of land

burning down and plowing over

everything in our path

our numbers explode

six billion lives

that this world can't hold

like a plague of locusts we spread

from one side of this earth, to the next

heedless, of the destruction

wrought by our hands

we continute to subjugate

the land

in the name of selfishness

in the name of greed

we have ignored our impact

on this planet's longevity

we look to the heavens

for the drawing of our paths

forsaking all that's present

for empty promises

never once have we stopped

to question the assumption

that we have the knowledge

to dictate what lives and dies

what lives and dies

never have we

stopped to question

the assumption

of man's dominion

there is a darkness rising overhead

enshrouding us

shadows that are closing in

bearing down

the long ignored prices

of progress

for love ,

of this world

for the future,

of mankind

we've got to turn

back this tide
