Desertification Songtext
von Exterminatus

The sands of time violently running, grinding and eroding as of late
Coalescing and converging, leaving this world in a barren withered state
Water trapped in clouds so high above us
Some of which will never feel
The ground and soil that lays beneath them
Planetary fate now bound and sealed

Rivers dry out
Lakes evaporate
Shore lines recede
Judgement awaits

Arid dry winds migrating from the deserts in the east are the cause of extinction, so many dying
No more food, no more peace, no more prosperity, no more global unity to cater to and appease
Like vermin, we play out our last days in the sand
One day soon we will climb to the surface and be met by mother rain, the healer of broken lands

As you sleep the world turns to dust
Catastrophic entropy, this shall be your cross
The end, it has begun
Planetary hierarchy broken and undone


Unearthly transmissions of voices that we have never heard before
Give me your minds and i will grant you life, echoing forevermore
Screaming in tongues foreign to this earth demanding that we must shed our form

As you sleep, the world turns to dust
Little do you know that you are not the cause
Biosphere in complete disarray
The oldest of all beings succumb to this fate

Perish with your world or reinvent yourselves for new life

Gone are the days of green permeance
The desert sands become the devil incarnate
Stripping flesh from bones, no matter which way you face
You face a desolate world, you face extinction

The computer minds in charge printing preprogrammed orders to humans
Stay inside, lest you die
Perhaps those that can travel between stars will hear our feeble cries
But in the end, death is nigh

Buried under the erosion, in the A.R.C. humans shall remain
Until those who from the heavens, descend down into our plane

The sands of time violently running, grinding and eroding as of late
A monolith descends down upon us, to reveal to us our cosmic fate
