Lyrics of Artist: Yawning Earth
  1. [Lyric] Life Inside the Biosphere (Yawning Earth)

    Endless empty rooms The panic setting in Water in my lungs Behind the beat again Exist outside of time Outside society Exist beyond the reach Of gravity Every city street A monument Every shopping mall A tomb Born for no grand scheme No great works to save Namelessly interred In the mass grave The carpenter's hands In concert with the...Learn More

  2. [Lyric] Lungs of the Earth (Yawning Earth)

    Sulfur and salt Sublimate the ecosystem Roaring pyre The high art of capitalism Sweep away the ashes To leave me with nothing Seize the cinder-covered plots Accelerate the engine Never deny The march of progress Never deny The first and spear of man Glut the stomach Titillate the hedonist urge Damn the expense Damn thе sacrifice The world and...Learn More

  3. [Lyric] Passing Yekaterina Bridge (Yawning Earth)

    I saw the gallows and I walked Put my head inside the lion’s jaws I put the sickness in my heart And I laughed as it ate me alive With my blood a pact was signed And the world burned all around me But it was safe here in this womb From the darkness I carry with me My organs decompose My eyes roll over white My consciousness compromised Days to...Learn More

  4. [Lyric] Thralldom (Yawning Earth)

    Pounded into place, molded to this disgrace Unshielded from all of the horror Daughter of the concrete, son of the strip mall Grist for the poverty mill Shackled by circumstance, The odds were never on your side Pray at the altar but your admission denied Give shelter to the snake that envenoms your heel A thrall to the oligarch From the day you...Learn More

  5. [Lyric] Abscondis (Yawning Earth)

    A legacy of blasphemy Shrinking window for the age of man Watch him slide into the primordial sea No hand to aid, the afflicted and the afraid Shrouded god in the blind citadel averts its gaze No master plan, no grand design No fate but what we deign to make No watchful eye to track our deeds Hide not your head, turn not your eyes Be here right...Learn More

  6. [Lyric] Lyceum (Yawning Earth)

    Closer than blood can tie us Bound by the yoke of control Arm in arm against their advance Our fate in the crucible Shall some giant step the earth To crush us at a blow? No force born in hatred Armed to detain and suppress Shall ever hold high power Not while we draw breath If destruction be our lot We must be its author Too many children born...Learn More

  7. [Lyric] Profiteer (Yawning Earth)

    Subsist A tick on the ear of mankind Foul harvester Turn the blades of the combine Shredded husks Of lives, bodies, souls Eject from the blades And float to earth Their blood is my nectar My sacks engorged Larger than nations Older than sin Open the floodgates Let the plague descend In the name of endless Exponential growth All is profit Every...Learn More

  8. [Lyric] Rise to the Fight (Yawning Earth)

    How much more heartbreak Can a nation stand? How many more bodies have to drop Before you can't tune out the violence anymore? How many executions Constitute a genocide? Become more than blissfully ignorant Make your stand The world turns, the nation burns Break the weight of state control Oligarchs keep you content Overcome the tide of hate How...Learn More
