A doomsday declaration the signs we cannot ignore
The oceans start to boil the dead wash up on our shores
Rivers flow with toxins sickening all in their wake
Swallowing the poison, savor its virulent taste
    
Foolishly we followed our rulers into the abyss
Critical mass no turning back we’ve fallen over the precipice
    
Monolithic ignorance
Devoid of intelligence
Devolved comprehension
Reversed progression
    
Extinction rates growing mankind a pestilent blight
Cancerous, the disease spreads devouring all life
The earth a barren wasteland, sulfurous smoke blacks out the skies
A dead planet now expires before our dying eyes

Those who sought to rule this realm have only meddled with it
The error of their foolish schemes have brought about our ruin
