Lyrics
Life In Ruin
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Wandering this blasted landscape that we once called our home lost amid the ash and wreckage, we wonder how this came to pass it's been a long time coming the hour of
man's descent from our lofty seat of power to it's conclusion in cement this is the consequence of an administration of arrogance ages without intervention and success before our governance the cracks have grown into fissures oversights exposed as deadly errors now it's so easy to see where we went wrong we've worked hard at untying the knots that hold it all in place the balance
all too fragile that allowed for our mistakes the facade
of control has worn away it shows what we've suspected
that we have lost our way this is an object lesson of a life in ruin
