We've managed to decipher the ancient files from Earth Sir
Excellent, play them immediately
April twenty three 2117
Consumed by our accomplishments in technology
We've forgotten amidst our greed
The proper use of our energy
Was meant to be accomplishments in humanity
The only thing we remember is how to breathe
The only thing we remember is how to breathe
The only thing we remember is how to breathe
Where did you say you found these files ?
They were just out there in space Sir, floating

We pleaded with them to stop fighting
But they wouldn't listen
It's like they couldn't see what they were doing
Or they just didn't care
Why did we create it all just to destroy it all
Why did we create it all just to destroy it all
What were we trying to achieve, was there any point at all
Why did we create it all just to destroy it all

It ended up as to much for us to take
As for the strong surviving, that was never the case
They just left us to suffer for their mistakes
But if you had enough money you could buy a place
And join them on their journey to that brave new world
With promises of all of this becoming a blur
As they boldly celebrate another planet infested
And they sing in triumph as the flag is erected
All we have left now is a desperate prayer
That somebody has mercy on us up there
'Cause what we've got left down here is beyond repair
It's just a matter of time before we reap the despair that
We've sowed upon this planet for centuries
Now it's time for this big dog to scratch her fleas
We've known it many years now that we pushed her to far
But enough is enough, this bitch is gonna do way more than bark

The Last File ?

The people turn to the ones that they love
And cherish every second
I heard a voice crying out for forgiveness
As their soul was beckoned
I ran through the streets searching for home
I should have known the way but my mind was gone
And my body was weakened
I found a quiet corner to sit and listen to that ominous humming
Of the land vibrating, clearly stating that something
Was coming
I have to try and leave something behind
With the hope that someday somebody will find
This desperate explanation behind
The extinction of mankind
I don't hold out much hope for these files
Ever surviving but I have to try
There's so much more I gotta tell ya but I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
I'm running out of time
Drop the mic, drop the mic
Does it really matter ?
What did you tell them ?
Not enough, not nearly enough
Hand over the files
Shush, listen
What the fuck ?
It was just a dream
Maybe people would pull together
If they'd seen what I've seen
Was it really just a dream ?
Come on people pull together
You'd know what I mean
If you'd seen what I've seen
Was it really just a dream ?
Just a dream
Just a dream
No
Fools
