lirik lagu behold the curse – clearxcut
we are encircled by skyscr-ping headstones
in the graveyard of modern urbanity:
a m-ss grave crowded with grey concrete caskets
we like to call our society
we can never see the sun, because a skyline of grey twisting towers
swallows all light; colors everything black
we grew accustomed to live in cities – hostile to life
like a morbid kraken they corrupt the surrounding land
fields displace forests. untamed rivers become waterways
wilderness vanishes. agriculture dominates
animals are degraded to beasts of burden
native communities are wiped out
we’ve become thralls of religions and drugs, slaves to the supermarket
servants of authorities, always kept on a short leash
the neverending stream of ragged figures that marches into factories
with minds altered by the numbing routine of the 9-5
we will work until we die from cancer or loneliness
alienation devoures fulfillment. isolation redefined
“every civilization is defined by hubris. it is defined by its denial that it lives in a natural world
as a matter of fact every civilization in its founding lies:
elevates itself above nature and claims that it is the controller of the whole world.“ – aric mcbay
the wires clutching gaia‘s neck
the chains holding emanc-p-tion back
the spear in the heart of a free humanity
the prison of hope. our great misery
behold the curse of industrial society
civilization. our great misery
