Who Died And Made Us King? Lyrics - If Hope Dies

through pure arrogance 

mankind has staked its claim 

it's left its mark upon 

all that surrounds us 

there is a darkness rising overhead 

shadows that are converging and closing in 

we've set forth to conquer 

every last inch of land 

burning down and plowing over 

everything in our path 

 

our numbers explode 

six billion lives 

that this world can't hold 

 

like a plague of locusts we spread 

from one side of this earth, to the next 

heedless, of the destruction 

wrought by our hands 

we continute to subjugate 

the land 

 

in the name of selfishness 

in the name of greed 

we have ignored our impact 

on this planet's longevity 

 

we look to the heavens 

for the drawing of our paths 

forsaking all that's present 

for empty promises 

never once have we stopped 

to question the assumption 

that we have the knowledge 

to dictate what lives and dies 

 

what lives and dies 

 

never have we 

stopped to question 

the assumption 

of man's dominion 

 

there is a darkness rising overhead 

enshrouding us 

shadows that are closing in 

bearing down 

the long ignored prices 

of progress 

 

for love , 

of this world 

for the future, 

of mankind 

we've got to turn 

back this tide
