We're growing buildings by the sea.
We're plotting, planning our insanity.
Pushing out to live beyond our bounds.
Taking over until nothing can be found.
Striving for heights we can not reach.
We're keeping nature on a leash.
Joking with ourselves.
As we pretend that we don't see, and we're growing taller,
blasting deeper holes under the sea.
We won't see it coming.
Nature reclaims all that's hers.
Returning balance to the earth.
And we move underground, and we begin to see.
Nature removes her leash.
It's now on you and me.
Striving for heights we can not reach.
We're keeping nature on a leash.
Arrogance will be the downfall of the human race.
Building bigger cities, soon to be our children's graves.
Nature escapes from her chains.
And we move underground.
And we begin to see.
Nature remove her leash.
It's now on you and me.
