Damned

You revel in the hurt
The oppression of humanity
You've poisoned every legacy
Your words revealed
The lack of empathy
Lack of hope
Or would you rather
Hope for the death of mankind
We've certainly earned it
We've never learned that
Everything we do
By our own hands
We create a false foundation
This is a Hell of our own making
Others dwell in starvation
While we've become fat
We have taken in an abundant harvest
We've caused the death of others
We revel in conquest
A contest between nations
A game to see how soon
We might bring damnation
To this land of doom
So we've become the Damned
And you watch and smile
Revel in our folly
Even as we've poisoned the land
You know, sooner or later
We'll fall, and need to blame
You'll be long gone
Farewell humanity
Farewell the species of man
