Islands - Humans lyrics
Love bird, you flew into my window 
Now in the sticky love nest sits a widow 
The tree it fell on all the people 
Gathered there to watch it topple 
Now turn around, it's burning down 
The city we live in 
Should we mumble lies? 
Take them by surprise? 
Let them have their way with us? 
Wounds be by old enemies 
Broke my heart to see 
Foundations ripped apart 
And investments fade away 
I guess we got off to a bad start 
No oxygen 
What is the outcome? 
Hungry humans 
We've got to enslave them 
We'll burn those bridges 
When we come to them 
I'm not just their leader 
I'm also one of them
The food supply has been depleted 
The river's ran dry just when it was needed 
The rats come out to take it over 
Singing, squeaking, "We built this city" 
It's hard to breathe 
But we couldn't leave 
Nowhere left to go 
Almost everybody died 
Drank the tears from those who cried 
We shriveled from the sodium 
And a map was found with an X on it 
So we followed it there Islands - Humans - http://motolyrics.com/islands/humans-lyrics.html
And what did we find? 
An underground design 
As we entered in to our surprise 
Oxygen 
Rivers of playgrounds(?) 
The ancients just stayed down 
They never stopped moving 
We stumbled towards them 
But they locked all the barn doors 
So we had to dig deeper 
We had to dig deeper 
And the deep was dark 
I wanted to sleep forever 
Wake up later, maybe never 
We had to build a civilization 
Let the planet focus on the planet's rotation 
We tried, we tried 
We really tried 
But no one could do it 
Happily(?) alive 
Never learned how to survive 
We were humans being useless 
No oxygen 
What is the outcome? 
Hungry humans 
We've got to enslave them 
We'll burn those bridges 
When we come to them 
I'm not just their leader 
I'm also one of them 
We're freed into oblivion 
No traces of civilized living eating the earth 
We're fading to oblivion 
No traces of civilized living eaten by earth
