Boneyard

Leave your troubles for a while
They’ll still be there when you come back
Time is always too short, for those who really need it

Where no ghost is holy, only dead
I’m just a soul attached to a corpse

All species are equal
But some just seem a bit more equal
Even if it’s just the same debris
But different protein structure

Black knight satellite
How long have you silently
Observed our self-destruction

Keep telling yourself
Heaven is worth the waiting
We are all stuck here
On this boneyard of our own making

Each day you live your life the exact same way
And for some reason
You still expect different results?
Different results, different results

Keep telling yourself
Heaven is worth the waiting
We are all stuck here
On this boneyard of our own making
It takes life to create life
What do we do when it’s all gone?
Aren’t you proud of this
Boneyard we call earth?

Tried to change the world only to find out
It’s the people we need to change
The people need to change

The healthy have a thousands wishes
The sick have but only one
Listen to our planet’s screams
She only wishes to be healed

Keep telling yourself
Heaven is worth the waiting
We are all stuck here
On this boneyard of our own making
It takes life to create life
What do we do when it’s all gone?
Aren’t you proud of this
Boneyard we call earth?
