August Burns Red - The Wake lyrics

Destroy everything
Cleanse wipe away the filth
Set fire to your waste
Burn everything back into dirt
Burn everything

Flood, drown the earth
Flood, drown the earth it's what we deserve

Rehash the poisons you breathe in the air
Tear down what you say your father created
Constructing buildings over buildings
Conceal history like a shameful scar

This world has lived for a million
Years with more to come
It's only a matter of time until
You choke on your indifference
Struggling to breathe as the
Water fills your lungs
Trying hard to scream as it
Rises into your throat
The reckless, the careless
Will reign until the oceans rise

Flood, drown the earth
Flood, drown the earth

It's what we deserve it's what we deserve
It's what we deserve it's what we deserve
It's what we deserve

This world has lived for a million
Years with more to come
It's only a matter of time until
You choke on your indifference
Struggling to breathe as the
Water fills your lungs
Trying hard to scream as it
Rises into your throat

Wake up and save yourself
The sea will reclaim what it worked to create
Wake up, save yourself pick up the pieces
Ask for forgiveness
