Steel Prophet - Trickery Of The Scourge lyrics

Once we could see it was all certain They came to us by night Somehow disease has spread the scroll Why do we believe prophecy? The humans became the pests The scourge that threatened all life The earth in her ways devised trickery Interprets what must be a sign Leave and you'll save us Whom lives on will thank us The prophecy needs us to fade Lies! Truth! Lies! Truth! When germs are the species endangered And insects hold keys to our fate Plant's lives we've yet to see The crowds have become as a cancer The city has paved over life The glow of technology blinds us We're pestilence to air, land and sea Leave and you'll save us Whom lives on will thank us The prophecy needs us to fade Lies! Truth! Lies! Truth! I see twilight ahead A fog rises up from the sea A balance is held in a hand A veil through which no man may see Why should I go? Who tells me so? What will I see? Is it just one of her tricks? Why am I born? Who gives a care? Why must I die? Tell me it's not all in vain?
