On The Burial Ground Lyrics by Incubus

On The Burial Ground Lyrics

    Die by violence in this world
    Is nothing strange for us
    With all those chemicals, wars and destructions
    We do not know mother nature has in store for us
    The race for economy makes people forget
    The lives around this planet
    As men become more egoist
    Pretty soon 
    there will be nothing in this world
    For men to spare

    [Pre-chorus:]
    Stupidity, causing pain
    And sickness
    To our world
    Suffer

    [Chorus:]
    On the burial ground
    Is what this planet is all about
    It's where we are right now
    We might not have any future to be found
    On this burial ground
    We have nowhere to hide
    Death is laughing at our cries

    And now we are feeling the effects
    That the forces of nature has brought
    The droughts, Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions
    It's gettin worse than even before
    We can see the revenge of this planet upon us
    As we keep hurting the sea
    The soil and the air
    Sometimes some catastrophic accidents happen
    Causting death rate and we wounder from where
    People are dying in civilization of different lands
    Because of the drought
    Occurences of flooding everywhere
    Killing innocent people and leaving others in despair
    Abomination because people fear that all these events
    Happen without any warning killing unexpectedly
    Men subjugate the forces of nature
    But we don't know that it's destroying us slowly

    The animals are becoming extinct
    Seas and rivers polluted by toxic waste
    Combustible smoke
    Factories are creating acid rains
    That is burning our skins
    Damaging plantations
    And soon it will bring us to death
    Air pollution is disintegrating our atmosphere
    Allowing the ultra-violet rays to burn the earth
    And to provoke us fear

    [Repeat chorus]
    [Lead]

    Soon some of the lives on this planet
    Won't exist anymore
    Because we won't be able to recreate
    Some of the beauty thta we had before
    Nobody seems to care
    About the future of our children's civilizations
    We better act now
    So they won't have a life of torment and frustration

    [Repeat pre-chorus, chorus]

    Cursed by men this world has become
    We are building our own tombs
    By eliminating our source of life
    When blindly we continue the destructions
    There's no future
    Day by day we are reaching the end of our lives
