Relinquished

History doomed to repeat itself

Spin it like another broken record

This world, our prison and soon to be our tomb

By flood and fire

The Holocene is set for doom

First comes the cold and stings through the bones

Malicious and merciless, not another ounce of mercy to behold

The sharp biting frost accompanied by wind

That pierce through the plague in which erodes at our souls

Then comes the fire

Over the hills

Dark smog encroaches

Their sun snuffed out

Immolation awakens

Pure suffocation

Asphyxiate

All the creatures of this Earth can't run from the flames

No human intervention can fend off the blaze

So, pray for the rains to hinder, to tame

The ancient Mother offers no mercy

Mass displacement, famine and annihilation

A true act of God, a cruel, cold conviction

The winds blow strong and feed upon the scorching

Spreading the embers, a new hell on Earth emerging

Cold winds

Pierce souls

Flames burn

Scourging famine

Embrace an age of hell unfolding

Brought to our knees

The future, foreboding

Pray for salvation

Behold the ever-raging downpour

Relinquisher of the blaze

Take our sins and wash them clean

Drown the streets and sink our dying dreams

All erodes, reshaping all life

Carve us out

Taken by the storm

Rivers plagued, stricken with pollution

Destined to run dry

Breaking the bonds connecting

To the circle of life, oh

Alas, the frost, the deep winter winds

Seek refuge while you can before the storm sets in

The bodies, now buried in rubble and ash

To be claimed by the careless acts of our past

Weathered souls to be called back home

To the angered mother, we've ignored her call

Let our sins be cleansed by the flame and the flood

Devour our wickedness and return us to dust

Welcome the downfall

Such is this entropy

Relinquish your history

Witness doom

Eh
