No sympathy - alone we dwell In apathy - a self-created hell Chorus We borrow from the earth No chance to pay back We scrape the dirt Our hands are black The day of reckoning is coming For you, to shatter your dreams In eternal darkness we are plumbing We shall, I say, pay for our sins Chorus We borrow from the earth No chance to pay back We scrape the dirt Our hands are black We dig the tired soil We stain the skies and sun In endless quest for oil Our future is undone Our hope is fading and end is near The silent assassin is here We fade quietly into the night Leaving no traces behind Chorus 2 Nothing remains just a freezing gust The toxic clouds, and fallout dust There is no “we” A collective demise Our time has come and the planet rejoices We paid for our horrible choices We fade quietly into the night Chorus 2 Nothing remains just a freezing gust The toxic clouds and fallout dust There is no me There are no more lies We dig the tired soil We stain the skies and sun In endless quest for oil Our future is undone
