Be Still Our Bleeding Hearts

Every new life is a tragedy in waiting A fresh beginning for hopelessness A new chance to infiltrate, build, then destroy We all lose everything now We all have no other way out Bizarre, this undying love for this species Oppressing the elements we are made of The soil is rotten The oceans forgotten The glaciers now molten In our tracks we are frozen Be still our bleeding hearts Death is part of life Embrace time's eraser Ditch the ignorant philanthropy The scale has tipped and not in our favor Approaching 8 billion and counting Sadly, we require disease, mass murder and blind genocide Every new death is a step to preservation Eradication in training An inch towards progress for the future of life We all lose everything now We all have no other way out Be still our bleeding hearts Death is part of life Embrace time's eraser Ditch the ignorant philanthropy The scale has tipped and not in our favor Approaching 8 billion and counting Unfortunately, we require disease, mass fatalities and extinguishing We have nowhere to run This battle already lost to ourselves by the billions Human life is simply not sustainable
