misery index - the carrion call lyrics

Loading...

bring out your dead

call of the carrion crow
civilized man had no friend
whale of the silent sea
the ocean is yours
they’ve left it empty

hawk and the emerald dove
soar and sail on wings above
across halcyon streams
to a place where
madmen once would dream

cast your senses to another world
back a millennia, another time when
savage squatters remade the earth

and gaia screamed
as she was raped
then after, thereafter
she took revenge

rusting towers, roots spreading
asphalt cracking under live oak
vines entangle the sh-lls
they once called their homes

termination, billions composted
germination, merged cadavers into peat
resurrection, food for the earthworms
fertilizing dead sward in turn

solitude, sacrosanct as gaia speaks
through whip-poor-wills at first daybreak

propagation, feces and flesh fructify
sown asunder, corpses blended with the soil
transm-tations, spill forth from gaia’s womb

life comes screaming, overdue
on a landscape free of man

beasts of a broken line
fill the void on silent earth
heed the carrion call, rebirth
