Angry Planet

Lyrics

I live on an angry planet, amidst the crowds and the endless noise
 In the debris of the broken families
 And the cracks in the grand designs
 And all the vengeful gods are back
 Gathering strength as the continents collide
 Some live by the bloody sword and die by the bloody swors
 Some by beauty and desire
 I live in the shadow of the great volcano
 I live by the good soil and the fire
 Yes of course I know that the days are numbered
 But we will go down to the wire
 And the pressure moves the mountains, seven billion and counting
 As the monkey tribes advance across the bleak terrain
 All sown with seed of mono-culture
 Wind and rain and revolution coming
 But we know it isn't personal - we just live on an angry planet
 They say that we're all kings and queens in the new world
 Except for those who aren't
 They say we can follow our dreams to the very top of the tree
 Except for those who can't
 They say that the meek shall inherit the earth
 Except that they shan't
 And the pressure moves the mountains, seven billion and counting
 As the monkey tribes advance across the barren land
 All sown with seed of mono-culture, war and rain and revolution coming
 But you know it isn't personal
 And the pressure moves the mountains, seven billion and counting
 As the monkey tribes advance, all in a rush of blood
 The jet stream blowing figh above
 The zombie hordes all banging war drums, raising flags
 As the pressure moves the mountains, seven billion now and counting
 As the monkey tribes advance across the ruined land
 All sown with seed of mono-culture, war and rain and revolution coming
 But I know it isn't personal
 I just live on an angry planet
