There is a debt, that we've burned through the century
the carbon reaper set free
Consuming all, driving life to extinction
a thriving land now devoid
it will consume, arctic surfaces break down
transforming glaciers to brine
Our heaving lungs choking down poison fumigation
1 billion tonnes to exhaust
Compounding heat leaching down to the phytoplankton
The biosphere will dissolve
The great machine sucks life from the planet’s veins
spitting filth in the sky
Unable to support life, broken ecosystem
a curse on us for all time
Deafened ears resist the call for a real solution
hundreds of species destroyed
Ice cracks
Run waters black
Into the sea
Sprout these seeds
Arbiter, floral harbinger
Liquescent impermafrost heralds our collective cost
Arbiter, floral harbinger
unisocial asphyxia while flowers bloom in antarctica
There is a debt, that will burn for a century
What must we give up to pay?
the syndicate of lies, inherit corruption
by their guidance: deceased
Ice cracks
Run waters black
Into the sea
Sprout these seeds
Arbiter, floral harbinger
Liquescent impermafrost heralds our collective cost
Arbiter, floral harbinger
unisocial asphyxia, while flowers bloom in antarctica
