My Planet
My planet,
Third planet across.
My planet,
My planet’s lost.
Look to the past and see the one consistent force,
Man’s focused aggression is the legacy of ghosts.
Who can say that violence never solved a fucking thing,
And when did wishful thinking become the universal king?
My planet,
Third planet across.
My planet,
My planet’s lost.
No rising sun that I can see.
I’ve got a hunger down inside of me.
Long have I lusted, long have I starved.
Drought is eternal,
And nothing grows where ground is hard.
But this new yearning, I just can place,
Feels so familiar, so intense.
The constant pulsing, the throbbing pain,
My hands feel something, desire pain.
A new and potent emotion,
Dissatisfaction and a sense of envy.
No cure, no going back,
One small step toward humanity.
Primitive Dawn,
Life moves on.
Life moves on,
Primitive Dawn.
From suns to gods, and sons to kings,
One naked force rules everything.
My fists solve problems my head can’t face.
Embrace the bloodshed,
And now I know I need the taste.
Where did it come from, this urge to fight?
Defining factor of humanity yet constant plight.
I understand it, I feel its force,
Yet cannot name it, or know it source.
You and I, we lust for war,
You and I, we cannot deny its power.
Deny its energy, the kiss of Mother Death,
The Rule and the Dominion and all that comes with it.
Profiles our futures, dictates our pasts,
The beginning and the ending, the first and the last.
I can’t deny it; no one can fight it,
Inherit in the first man born.
So lose yourself in the fog of war,
The Primeval Night and the unholy Primitive Dawn.
Life moves on,
Primitive Dawn.
Live moves on,
Primitive Dawn.
My planet’s lost in the Primitive Dawn.
