Everything Everything The Peaks song lyrics

So they came, one by one

There was never any warning

Bled out the stuck pig fields like it was gonna last long

And I saw the whole rise

I saw the whole thing fall, down

And all flesh spun

A lattice of it reachin' out

And I'm left holding my head looking down at every grave

And all millennia pass, just a flicker in a wave

And I've seen more villages burn than animals born

I've seen more towers come down than children grow up

Cross the peaks, cross the marsh, cross your fingers for the last time

And pass out the blame to someone and never step it up side

Nobody's asking "Why is your head bent down so?"

There's trillions lost, I'm dreaming of a different time

I'm left holding my head

Looking down at every grave

And all millennia pass, just a flicker in a wave

And I've seen more villages burn than animals born

I've seen more towers come down than children grow up

I've seen biomass swarm back and forth across the globe

They try all manner of things, just to keep it all afloat

And I've seen more criminals hung than innocents walk

I've seen more horrors made real than dreamers wake up!

Come now, Decider, sit down beside me

Tell me my world is gone!
