No Looking Back -

textures and palettes
designs and patterns
flashlights and lanterns
a million babies mangled
nobody turned thier head
and soon came a million more
strwn about amongst the dead
it's a brave new world we live in
wrought with lust and desire
spreading fruitful across the land
leaving behind drought and fire
we flock together
not a care in our world
never looking back
at our happy roots
pretending we don't have a clue
of the paths we've just chewed
maybe we'll travel into space
find more planets to desolate
or hopefully kill ourselves off
keep our future's loving grace
fuck this place.
