lyrics

UNSHRIVEN
A song about climate change, political and corporate environmental crimes

Intro Chorus
Unshriven scape goats ignorant pawns
So the rich kids can dabble to try and play God
Olympus has fallen and deserted the gates
Ten minutes too early, one hundred years late


Verse 1
Death escapes you, blind and alone
Pit latrine caverns, a place to call home
Buzzards pick the bones of livestock and man
Hell descends back from whence it began

Pre-Chorus 1A

Dormant - pathogens emancipated
Airborne - thawed viral judgement cellular destruction
Bloodborne - cellular destruction
Melt from within and piss out your organs

Dormant - pathogens emancipated
Airborne - thawed viral judgement cellular destruction
Bloodborne - cellular destruction
Melt from within and piss out your organs

Pre-Chorus 1B

Natural selection elected to desert us
To flip the switch, to wipe the slate, to wash away
To bring to pass the sins that deserve us to resurface


Chorus 1
Unshriven scape goats ignorant pawns
So the rich kids can dabble to try and play God Olympus has fallen and deserted the gates
ten minutes too early and one hundred years late

Post-Chorus - 1
The science we cursed cannot save us now
The bait had been switched, but no one knew how Parched riverbeds with seas sown as the causalities To harvest the fruits their greed fueled atrocities

Verse 2

No mourners..... no funeral no last rites
Forgotten no tombstones no gravesites
Abandoned for celestial frontiers Neo-Cro-Magnon tribal warfare


Pre-Chorus 2A

Dormant - pathogens emancipated
Airborne - thawed viral judgement cellular destruction
Bloodborne - cellular destruction
Melt from within and piss out your organs

Dormant - pathogens emancipated
Airborne - thawed viral judgement cellular destruction
Bloodborne - cellular destruction
Melt from within and piss out your organs

Pre-Chorus 2B

Natural selection has elected to desert us
To flip the switch, to wipe the slate, to wash away
To bring to pass the sins that deserve us to resurface

Chorus 2
Unshriven scape goats ignorant pawns
So the rich kids can dabble to try and play God
Olympus has fallen and deserted the gates
Ten minutes too early and one hundred years late

Post-Chorus - 2
They cut off the lights to the city on the hill
Put it on the tab and stiffed us with the bill
So we pay for the sins of other men’s bygone fathers
Millions of conscripted pacifist martyrs
