lyrics

DEFILING PARADISE

A paradise so sweet it could be called perfect
An ecosystem perfect in design
Microbiological through to mammoth in size
A state of balance and evolution
A planet of heaven-like greenery and colourful sights
An equilibrium bursting with life
Amalgamation of species that coincide
Of man and the earth - one and the same

It took the laws of balance
To maintain such a palace
Without a hint of malice

From the mountain to valley this balance existed
And paved the way for life to excel
It told a tale of prosperity in the sense of
Richness that nature provided to all
The foundations had been set for civilisations to build
Such a future upon
The evolution of human to planet was set to be
Magnificent

Enter the hand of greed
Of man-made Gods and depravity
A world now thrust into calamity
Demons now walked amongst the clarity

It only took one disgracefully sickening mind
To redirect the evolutionary chain
As easily swayed followers gathered together
The harvesting and bloodlust enslaved
It told the minds of the loving that killing and conquering
Were both necessary and great
It penetrated the psyche of natures plan
It made the earth an enemy of man
