Lyrics
Human Strain
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.
Illness, infected born mutilated strain
Issue transfusion no one left to blame
Nature's way of thinning out the human fucking herd
Disease, to war to fear his own kind
The human strain, returning plague
Drink the tainted blood
From the only child
Cities, increase speed population rise
Dying, the future process in the genes
Death stalking man as he embraces the absurd
Through peace, through life, the hatred of himself
The human strain, returning plague
Drink the tainted blood
From the only child
Death stalking man though peace, through life, though hatred of himself
Death stalking man, as he embraces his crucifixion
Skinless resurrection, from the bodies of the dead
Sickness is increasing, as the oceans turn red
Apparatus for self destruction, day of judgement is now at hand
Decayed memories haunt vaccinated minds
Risk contamination mechanism of death
Anyone left alive scorch turn to ash
Disease, war black death touching man
The human strain, returning plague
Drink the tainted blood
From the only child
