Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Who has the means to save us from ourselves?
To pull us from the vicious cycles feeding back again
[Verse 2]
Consume and feed, degenerate
We damage just to liberate
Bought and sold before we could even breathe
[Verse 3]
I feel like we're falling
A lifeline just out of our reach
I feel our collapsing
The arrogant numb to our needs
[Verse 4]
You're a catastrophe
The one who's come to devastate
Catastrophist
You stole our innocence
[Verse 5]
You're a catastrophe
The one who's come to devastate
Catastrophist
We never had a chance
[Verse 6]
How far along before we fade away?
So deeply out of focus, but it seems we never cared
[Verse 7]
Deflect, deny what flows inside
The poison springs internalize
Bought and sold before we could even breathe
[Verse 8]
I feel like we're falling
A lifeline just out of our reach
I feel our collapsing
The arrogant numb to our needs
[Verse 9]
You're a catastrophe
The one who's come to devastate
Catastrophist
You stole our innocence
[Verse 10]
You're a catastrophe
The one who's come to devastate
Catastrophist
We never had a chance
Never had a chance
[Verse 11]
Never had a chance
[Verse 12]
Who has the means to save us from ourselves?
To pull us from the vicious cycles
Feeding back again
Feeding back again
[Verse 13]
The bringer of our devastation
You stole our innocence
Bringer of our devastation
It's you, catastrophist
[Verse 14]
Consume and feed, degenerate
We damage just to liberate
Deflect, deny what flows inside
The poison springs internalize
[Verse 15]
I feel like we're falling
A lifeline just out of our reach
I feel our collapsing
The arrogant numb to our needs
[Verse 16]
You're a catastrophe
The one who's come to devastate
Catastrophist
You stole our innocence
We never had a chance
[Verse 17]
You're a catastrophe
The one who's come to devastate
Catastrophist
We never had a chance
Never had a chance
[Verse 18]
Catastrophist
Catastrophist
[Verse 19]
The bringer of our devastation
You stole our innocence
Bringer of our devastation
It's you, catastrophist
