Lyrics:
Once upon a time... When I seeped with wisdom Nestled deep in your earth Nurturing mankind from it's birth Your weeds have borne steel And I weep for your hunger As your forces grow stronger It is I who remember your crimes... Ignorant... To the blasted fields and wilted air Complacent... To a fallen future and a fate laid bare And you would gouge your own Mother from within To beget dust and skeletons. I watch you betray yourselves... And She is too withered to care. Once upon a time... They beseeched me for guidance Groveled on their knees For the wisdom of trees Now I reap their disease! Their pitiful defiance These dregs of science In sorrow and hatred entwined... Decrepit crops unsought by mankind Scarecrows laid bare for the starving soil. You would choke willingly upon your Mother's ashes And rue in millennia of Reckoning
