Aftermath
Just picture the oceans
all stagnant and still
With sulphurous clouds
hanging over the hill
I hunt to survive but there’s nothing to kill
but time
CHORUS:
It’s too late for tears now
too late for regret
Petitioning Nature won’t cancel the debt
She might forgive, but she'll never forget
that I let her go for a dime
Renouncing creation sublime
The rivers are burning
The mountains are bare
The last flower wilted
Not a bird in the air
I'm the last one alive with no one to share
my crime
CHORUS
Earth is a desert
Hot, sterile and stark
The moon’s but a blur
and the sun has grown dark
The howl of the wind in exchange for the lark
and I’m
I’m too late for tears now
too late for regret
Petitioning Nature won’t cancel the debt
She might forgive, but she'll never forget
that I let her go for a dime
Renouncing creation sublime
CHORUS
