Edison's Children - The Tempest

THE TEMPEST Light up the sky the tempest erupting And everything else will be washed away. Collect up all your earthly possessions, The rest of the world has been reclaimed. The waves will eclipse the tallest buildings, Everything in its path will surely drown. The world will descend to a watery graveyard, It's time to head to higher ground. We've modernized our infrastructure At the expense of our own resource Evoking the wrath of Mother Nature, Now she's come back to reclaim it all. Look to the sky, the tempest is spinning, Look the sea, the surge will flow, Look to the earth, the tremors are rumbling, Look out humans, we're on our own. Category 5's are churning up A path of destruction on the Gulf Stream. F5 tornadoes attacking our cities Till there's nothing left of society. The oceans temperatures are rising Making super-cell hurricanes Causing overwhelming destruction To the point that they've begun to annihilate. We've modernized our infrastructure At the expense of our own resource Evoking the wrath of Mother Nature, Now she's come back to reclaim it all. Look to the sky, the tempest is spinning, Look the sea, the surge will flow, Look to the earth, the tremors are rumbling, Look out humans, we're on our own. Mother Nature has come to purge us Removing the virus to which she gave birth Putting an end to human existence And restoring the balance to Planet Earth.
