The document discusses the impending changes to the Earth and humanity's failure to address the signs of environmental damage. It describes how people were once idealistic about changing destructive ways but are now resigned to the inevitable consequences of inaction. The future is uncertain as fertile lands disappear and a species lives in fear of what they have helped create.

1. D N A

2. Earth Changes come
We all stand there stunned

3. Like we didn’t see it at all

4. But how many times

5.  And how many signs

6. Did they leave written on the wall

7. Don’t tell me you don’t think about it

8. Don’t tell me you don’t want to hear about it

9. Don’t turn a blind eye towards me

10. Don’t give me the deaf ears

11. I know that you can hear

12. I remember when I was young
We were gonna change all our ways
Hands held above
We spread peace and love
All over this place

13. But now I’ve come down
I’m so earth bound
So sober and straight
Now I guess
I’m just like the rest
We all knew it was too little
too late

14. I taste the fear in my lover’s mouth
The way she looks when there’s a child about
Fertile women now refusing to bear
All they give is a soft prayer

15. FOR A SPECIES RUNNING SCARED

16. OUT BEYOND THE WARMING SUN
WHERE SAINTS AND ANGELS DARE NOT COME

17. WHERE NOTHING GROWS
NO WIND BLOWS
ALL HORIZONS ARE ONE

18. RUNS A RIVER RED
FROM ALL OUR BLOODSHED
AND WITH THE SALT FROM OUR TEARS
IT RUNS COLD WITH ALL OUR HATES
AND DEEP WITH ALL OUR FEARS

19. AND ON THE BANKS
ALONG BOTH SIDES
SITS ALL THE DREAMS
WE HAD FOR MANKIND

20. SPAWNED IN POOLS OF WET CEMENT
BY DAWN THEY’VE COOLED INTO
MONUMENTS

21. TO A SPECIES THAT CAME AND WENT

22. I TASTE THE FEAR IN MY LOVERS MOUTH
THE WAY SHE LOOKS WHEN THERE IS A CHILD ABOUT
DON’T TURN A BLIND EYE TOWARDS HER
DON’T GIVE HER THE DEAF EARS

23. SHE KNOWS THAT YOU CAN HEAR

24. SPECIES RUNNING SCARED
