Death March

by Nick Cicola

/
1.
A presence of unease in the air A hint of paranoia in me You feel it too inside your chest What is all this building up to Well we won't be here when it falls Said fathers and their fathers too But it is catching up to us We will be the first to see it A fire spreads across the land No one can stop its concrete spread It will be us that puts it in The final nail in the coffin
2.
Watching the world safe from a bedroom Away from obligation To help us change and to save us We all deserve to face the repercussions of the new age We had to have it so fast We had to get it cheaper I see it everyday now We've all forgotten what happens In our race to the top of the hill I stagnate look on and say Come and get us Come and get us Get off the race now Can't you see where it ends It's really poetry where greed will take us Come and Get us Come and Get us
3.
Get off your feet We leave now Stop messing around It's time now Go get your love Or leave it This is no drill Believe it Faces and places Passing by Bones and muscles getting sore Botched to the clock Nine to Five Hold on to love Don't go stale

Ripples 04:32
After a while something changes inside me I'm trying not to show it or to grow it Believe me I don't know why it's like this Why it always happens to me Half a day is okay It's a maybe I can't explain I am so very sorry for the nights I can't even talk And I have trouble looking you in the eye anymore I will not let this fade away like others before Deal with me for a little Because I promise sweet feelings will return
5.
Rubble 07:03
It is so fallacious in our craniums We are a danger to our own existence Like a dog eating itself to death Our bask in riches will be so short lived It's hard to be optimists at the tipping point You can sense it in the air Everyone has given up We are letting the machine wash over us like a wave We were going to go to mars Now we're only going to war Change your locks now and get inside Things are different now a changing tide We cannot ignore this a minute more You're not the problem now it is the Earth We are burning and everyone can tell The plants are dying and dust is in the air Leaders are hiding and the poor are dying Every war we fight is just for food Could I ever bring a child to this To reap the consequences of the mess Two hundred thousand years and we've not learned I can't imagine the horror to come We are losing the only place that we have ever known Only the worst of us will make it out of this alive There's a vacancy in hell big enough for all of us We will burn to death The lifespan of a fly We choke on the air Bacteria kills Our medicines fail Our resources gone We burn as the sun punches through the atmosphere wall We don't only die We all suffer first These humans were born into this An innocent's death It should have been us with blistering skin Centuries of Earth are reset The silence deserved With buried rubble The end of the world The march to our death
6.
Savior 05:16
Watch the snake eat its tail I've seen our fate Buried rubble Come to terms and understand Mortality and legacy There's only one cure for me To swallow my pride and have no fear I'll stick with you if you stick with me Together we'll watch the storm Something so small can feel so large Our perspectives are unchanging and blind What can you do but hold onto you It's such a mess A march to our deaths
7.
Love March 07:28
Antithesis full of fire A nemesis by design Flip the switch and cut the line Breezing through the warning signs Past the point of no return A thousand lessons left unlearned With the line erased we're all on one side The soon to come crimson sky Antithesis full of light The greater good out of sight Keep me close and hold me tight Take it on with no fight Fly away in the mind It won't matter when I die Existence held up by so many bones sacrifice Love can get tiresome It doesn't ever feel the same But what else do we have A forward line to the end Anthesis full of life The end of all will come in time Raise your head up so high And forever call you mine I'll never let you go I love you more than you could know We'll never let it sink too low We have to make it so A world that is on fire A crazy place for you and I Uncertain death down the line The pros and cons of living life Are we a love march you and I Are we a love march you and I Are we a love march you and I Are we a death march you and I
