Lyrics for Who Died And Made Us King? by If Hope Dies:
| | | Artist: | If Hope Dies |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Who Died And Made Us King? | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 208 | | | | Lyrics: | through pure arrogance
mankind has staked its claim
it's left its mark upon
all that
surrounds us
there is a darkness rising overhead
shadows that are converging and closing
in
we've set forth to conquer
every last inch of land
burning down and plowing
over
everything in our path
our numbers explode
six billion lives
that this
world can't hold
like a plague of locusts we spread
from one side of this earth, to the
next
heedless, of the destruction
wrought by our hands
we continute to subjugate
the
land
in the name of selfishness
in the name of greed
we have ignored our
impact
on this planet's longevity
we look to the heavens
for the drawing of our
paths
forsaking all that's present
for empty promises
never once have we stopped
to
question the assumption
that we have the knowledge
to dictate what lives and
dies
what lives and dies
never have we
stopped to question
the
assumption
of man's dominion
there is a darkness rising overhead
enshrouding
us
shadows that are closing in
bearing down
the long ignored prices
of
progress
for love ,
of this world
for the future,
of mankind
we've got to
turn
