On Silent Wings

One morning, I opened my eyes to see
That the earth had nothing more to offer me
Serenely awaiting the end
I'm biding my time, sedating myself

Trying to fly
With broken wings
Leaving me frustrated
In pure agony
Won't you take me away
On silent wings
Instead, I'm condemned
Sedating myself

I am dead, yet somehow I'm still alive
Rotting away from the inside

Trying to fly
With broken wings
Leaving me frustrated
In pure agony
Won't you take me away
On silent wings
Instead, I'm condemned
Sedating myself

I can hear the earth scream
As parasites devour her and pick her bones clean

Our future's been taken by thieves
Consumed by our fathers, devoured by greed
Their fodder we are to receive
As they reap the riches of our misery

We are welcomed into the world
With shackles bound to our limbs
And they will say to us
Welcome to slavery
Creation has dealt me lackluster existence
On silent wings, take me away
Take me away
