Embracing Extinction - Misery Index

We process the facts, and choke on the math

Yet we can’t come to terms with ourselves

Gorge belly up to the table of wants

It’s «all you can eat» after all!

Embracing extinction, what higher form of life

Destroys his creations… how far we’ve come to fall

Diet of all things, consumption run amok

Dionysian days undone

We open the earth, to shit in our graves

We rest on our laurels attained

Bacchanal feasts, long out of date

For two-legged beasts unrestrained

Embracing extinction, what higher form of life

Destroys his creations… how far we’ve come to fall

Diet of all things, consumption run amok

Dionysian days… undone
