Devouring Resources

Man is alarming devouring all of earth's resources

When there's nothing left we will be feasting on our corpses

But that would not suprise me that's the way that man is

Ignorant to everything with uncaring survival instinct

So arrogant and blind to other options we could choose

We could be the nurtures not the ones guilty of abuse

We could harness so much more that is sustainable

But money, greed and corruption

Is the scenario on which we repeat

When we've continued to polluting all the seas

When we have finally cut down the very last tree

Will we acknowledge this as our responsibility

Or will we look to pass the blame off

And be saying this future could not be seen

Because if in fact we try to use this as an excuse for what we've done

That would simply be obscene and completely wrong!
