Apocalyptic policies
|
That neglect the environment and diminish the future
|
Because the zealots in power
|
Those ruling are ruled by their faith in the scriptures
|
When the environment takes a backseat to religion
|
Are they serving our interests or just succumbing to fiction?
|
There¡¯s no more hope for our future when we¡¯re governed by fear
|
Of the political holy men who believe the end is near
|
This is the end
|
The end is here
|
We¡¯re all dead
|
Governed by fear
|
Fear of the end
|
Environmental eclipse
|
We¡¯re already dead
|
Governing for the apocalypse
|
Their distain for this world
|
Is obvious in the content of their environmental laws
|
They never hear the cries of nature
|
Which are drowned out by the sound of corporate applause
|
They don¡¯t seem to realize what¡¯s really at stake
|
They can¡¯t see the forest for the trees when they¡¯re blinded by faith
|
They can¡¯t comprehend how much their policies are flawed
|
When they¡¯re busy groveling, down on their knees, before god
|
This is the end
|
The end is here
|
We¡¯re all dead
|
Governed by fear
|
Fear of the end
|
Environmental eclipse
|
We¡¯re already dead
|
Governing for the apocalypse
|
The second coming is coming
|
So there¡¯s really no need to take care of the earth
|
They just live for today
|
And bleed the planet for all that it¡¯s worth
|
But do they live for today or are they living for death?
|
Do they really feel god breathing down the back of their necks?
|
It¡¯s their faith in the end that we¡¯ll all live to regret
|
When our children inherit the wasteland that¡¯s left
|
This is the end
|
The end is here
|
We¡¯re all dead
|
Governed by fear
|
Fear of the end
|
Environmental eclipse
|
We¡¯re already dead
|
Governing for the apocalypse
