The Hungry Ghost Lyrics
when man made the choice that production holds more meaning than life
he
sentenced our world
to a slow and lingering death
strip the land of
all it holds
clear the forests down to the last stone
convert the
living to the dead
and lose your life in the process
our
civilization can reach no peak
it must continue to ravage the
landscape
consume all the riches it has to offer
swallowed down
into a stomach
that can never be full
just like a
parasite
our industries cripple their host
and leave it
too
weak to stand
we can lay no claim to this land
where did
mankind develop hisentitlement?
to rape this earth and sky
to leave it choking and waiting to die
shows that we have developed
a terrible hatred of life
our culture is too busy
consuming it's
dead remains
to see the carnage on either
side of it's face
yes, this is a reality
as real as the poisons we eat
it's
in everything we touch
we have all been marked for death
as
our skies turn grey
and our water becomes deadly to drink
we will
all perish
this will be our end
our desire for production
has doomed us
we cannot defend
our selfish actions
up to
this point
how can we stop
this monster that
we've
created?
it will never rest
until it's never-ending
hunger
has been sated
just one more species extinct.
