The Peaks

The Peaks - Everything Everything

So they came one by one

There was never any warning

Bled out the stuck pig fields like it

Was gonna last long

And I saw the whole rise

I saw the whole thing fall down

And all flesh spun a lattice of it reaching out

And Im left holding my head

Looking down at every grave

And all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave

And Ive seen more villages

Burn than animals born

Ive seen more towers come down

Than children grow up

Cross the peaks cross the marsh

Cross your fingers for the last time

And pass out the blame to someone

And never stepping up son

Nobodys asking Why is your

Head bent down So

Theres trillions lost

Im dreaming of a different time

And Im left holding my head

Looking down at every grave

And all millennia pass just a flicker in a wave

And Ive seen more villages

Burn than animals born

Ive seen more towers come down

Than children grow up

And Ive seen biomass swarm

Back and forth across the globe

They try all manner of things

Just to keep it all afloat

And Ive seen more criminals hung than innocents walk

Ive seen more horrors made

Real than dreamers wake up

Come now decider sit down beside me

Tell me my world is gone
