Empires were built through the centuries drones on somebodys flesh and on somebodys bones Creating our needs while dumping what's left - now nature's dying, it's choking to death Tell me for how long We're burning the sun, we'll tear down the mountain and drink out the river 'til river'll run dry We'll shoot at the stars, or torture the ocean 'til Earth will stop breathing and wind wouldn't fly We've buried ourselves by building a tower to climb up to heaven - we're falling to hell We're burning the sun, we'll tear down this mountain and drink out the river until the river runs dry As we're gaining strength - the world's getting week We're blowing away the remains as we speak Another decade, we're pushing some more Destroying the walls while we're closing the door When the forest turns to desert, when the river turns to mud, When the air becomes a treasure - who allowed to tear it all apart?
