The Pariah - Silent Birds

Still we decline our liability so please don't ask me how we've got this low
Did we ever make a move to change where this was leading from the start
We're not doomed but yet we won't plead guilty
And all I see is us, marching towards the end

We've dug this hole all by ourselves
Deep enough to scratch the surface of hell
Sad thing we didn't realize that no one will ever be able to escape

And the birds have stopped to sing so long ago
We are so blind with greed we didn't miss the sound
Air runs short, I can hardly breathe
We choke but we won't stop to seek
Until there's nothing left to take from this earth

Face the darkness, where we navigated to
Face the silence down here
Scratch your eyes out
Till we can see what we've done
We will all remain blind
It's us who took our sight

Would you rather be wiped out or sit and watch us slowly fade away
It's the one and only choice we got
So think fast and close this coffin like a book
That wasn't worth to be read to the fucking end of it

And the birds have stopped to sing so long ago
We are so blind with greed we didn't miss the sound
Air runs short, I can hardly breathe
We choke but we won't stop to seek

We've dug this hole all by ourselves
Deep enough to scratch the surface of hell
We inhabit a grave
That no one will ever be able to escape
