Lyrics Napalm Death

Napalm Death

On the Brink of Extinction

Born between chaos and hatred - a lottery of fate

We sit on the brink of extinction

The world lies in wait

Just a scratch on the surface

Of time that will wash away

We delude ourselves with the notion

That we are here to stay

As life starts to shrink

An impending state of neurosis

Will we awake from this negligent narcosis?

On the brink, the brink of extinction

We're on the brink, the brink of extinction

Locked together in a mindless campaign

It's only now we see

Appreciation is the one redemption

For all that lives and breathes

Like a virus it's conscious - impure

We have farmed disease

It's time now to step back

And find an inner peace

As life starts to shrink

An impending state of neurosis

Will we awake from this negligent narcosis?

On the brink, the brink of extinction

We're on the brink, the brink of extinction

Will we avoid a natural selection?

Do we have the right to survive the failures?

Nature, its force - the scales unbalanced

What's the next step? How do we evolve?

Can we avoid a natural selection?

Do we have the right to survive the failures?

Nature, its force - the scales unbalanced

What's the next step? What can we resolve?
