Lyrics
[Intro]
We do away with your kind
Countdown to exterminate the human race
Four, three, two, one
Let chaos entwine
On defenseless soil
Remove errors of man
And sweep all the weakening kind
[Verse 1]
I am war, I am pain
I am all you've ever slain
I am tears in your eyes
I am grief, I am lies
[Verse 2]
Bygone are tolerance
And presence of grace
Scavengers are set out
To cleanse the human filth parade
[Verse 3]
I am pure, I am true
I am all over you
I am laugh, I am smile
I am the earth defiled
I am the cosmic storms
I am the tiny worms
I am fear in the night
I am bringer of light
[Outro]
Earth successfully erased
