Purification Living In An Age Of Mass Extinction
"We are at the present time living in an age of mass
extinction. Each year, more than 20,000 unique species
disappear from this planet forever. This represents
more that two species per hour. Mass extinction is the
outcome of the ever increasing progress of the
machinery of civilization."
Alienated from the natural world
Guided by anthropocentric attitudes
The average human being is unaware and uncaring
About the biological holocaust
Rise up and fight back
How long will the Earth survive?
Rise up and fight back
Or it will be too late
Mankind - the plague killing the Earth
Unseeing eyes, uncaring hearts
Human impact on the Earth must diminish
For the violent assault on nature to cease
"You have been taught that you have freewill, that you
have the right to do whatever you feel like. So do you
really think you are free?"
But your freedom is a lie, at the expense of others who
die
Countless, with every second passing by, countless,
they suffer, they die
We must find again our roots to link ourselves back to
the Earth
It's a way in which to search for the truth
Rise up and fight back
How long will the Earth survive?
Rise up and fight back
Or it will be too late
"The facts are clear. More plant and animal species
will go through extinction within our generation than
have been lost for natural causes over the past two
hundred million years. And that will be the price of
progress,ecological collapse, the death of Nature."
Day after day this world draws closer to the end (x5)
