The last leaves have fallen
The last vine has withered
The ocean has boiled for so long
Choking our breath with fetid steam
We claw for shelter from the heartless sun
Which cracks our skin and dries our wells
So great is the debt we have incurred
So too will we wilt and fade into dust
We’ll pay with the ashes of our humanity
And cease to walk upon this earth
And the earth will forget our name
The last vine has withered
The ocean has boiled for so long
Choking our breath with fetid steam
We claw for shelter from the heartless sun
Which cracks our skin and dries our wells
So great is the debt we have incurred
So too will we wilt and fade into dust
We’ll pay with the ashes of our humanity
And cease to walk upon this earth
And the earth will forget our name
