The Peaks

The Peaks - Everything Everything

So they came one by one
There was never any warning
Bled out the stuck pig fields like it
Was gonna last long
And I saw the whole rise
I saw the whole thing fall down
And all flesh spun a lattice of it reaching out
And Im left holding my head
Looking down at every grave

And all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave

And Ive seen more villages
Burn than animals born

Ive seen more towers come down
Than children grow up

Cross the peaks cross the marsh
Cross your fingers for the last time

And pass out the blame to someone
And never stepping up son
Nobodys asking Why is your
Head bent down So

Theres trillions lost
Im dreaming of a different time

And Im left holding my head
Looking down at every grave

And all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave

And Ive seen more villages
Burn than animals born

Ive seen more towers come down
Than children grow up

And Ive seen biomass swarm
Back and forth across the globe

They try all manner of things
Just to keep it all afloat

And Ive seen more criminals hung than innocents walk

Ive seen more horrors made
Real than dreamers wake up

Come now decider sit down beside me
Tell me my world is gone
