lyrics

Explosions of feathers as they go by
Vision is blurring while life subsides
It doesn’t matter if we stop now
Cause they’re the dreams of the carrion kind

What used to flourish is in demise
Species disappearing before our eyes
Despite it all there’s no slowing down
Cause we’re locked in at 80

A headless crow, a spineless snake
Did you all suffer the same fate?
Death by the toilings of man?
And what’s the accountability
Being oblivious to the crime?

Tell them to look both ways before they do anything
Crushed for all convenience's sake
Leaving bodies lying in their wake
Tell them to look both ways before they do anything

What can I say to you?
Nothing will change
Some people see the truth but
The world remains

I’ve tried talking, I’ve tried screaming
But no one sees them cause they’re all blind
They’re all to busy being
Stuck in their selfish lives

Tell them to look both ways before they do anything
Crushed for all convenience's sake
Flattened bodies left in our wake
Tell them to look both ways before they do anything

No slowing down
