Sequoia Throne

Did you come here to kill, or did you come here to die?

Did we really think that spaceships would descend from the sky?

Bending light and beaming forth across space-time

to see us scared in the reflection of their oil black eyes?

And stalk us as a predator like our movies imply

They're not the ones who come to kill us

Come to fill us full of lead

They're not the ones who hate us

And they are not the ones who mutilate our animals

Or travel through the stars.

They're not the ones who cause us harm - we are!

We are, we are, we are

We are still-life in cold blood and we feel nothing.

We are still-life in cold blood and we feel nothing.

Hell-bent on heaven

Hell-bent on heaven

Hell-bent on heaven

Hell-bent on heaven

While our righteous men are stuffing corpses full of shit and faith,

We are, we are, we are still-life

We are, we are, we are still-life

We are, we are, we are

Still-life

They're not the ones who cause us harm

We are, we are

(Did you come here to kill, or did you come here to die?)

We are still-life in cold blood

We are still-life in cold blood

And we feel

We feel

Stuffing corpses full of shit and faith,

They bloviate about a future beyond the moon.

To bring about another planet's doom

To discover peaceful life and beat our war-drum to its tune

Unless my prayers are answered

Our end is coming soon.
