Paroles de Demeter's Reckoning
Once upon a time...When I seeped with wisdom
Nestled deep in your earth
Nurturing mankind from its birth
Your weeds have borne steel
And I weep for your hunger
As your forces grow stronger
It is I who remember your crimes...
Ignorant...
To the blasted fields and wilted air
Complacent...
To a fallen future and a fate laid bare
And you would gouge your own Mother from within
To beget dust and skeletons.
I watch you betray yourselves...
And She is too withered to care.
Once upon a time...
They beseeched me for guidance
Groveled on their knees
For the wisdom of trees
Now I reap their disease!
Their pitiful defiance
These dregs of science
In sorrow and hatred entwined... And rue in millennia of Reckoning
