Ecocide - Lyrics - Earth Crisis

Silenced in the roar of the flames. After the screams and the dying, nothing remains. Desecrated, slashed, burned to the ground. In the frenzy of greed, cries of protest are drowned. The earth dies - ecocide! The earth's forests laid forever to waste. Thoughts of the future trampled in their haste. Corporations with their dollar sign focus ravage the amazon like a plague of locusts. Plumes of black smoke ascend into the sky. A forest of beautiful creatures senselessly dies. Smoking fields of devastation left in mankind's wake. With populations left to grow and greed they justify this ***. (The power of the dollar) can't take precedence over the inevetable detrimental consequence. The time to react is long overdue, from protest to confrontation by me and by you.
