Permian: The Great Dying

Eyes on the water
 Between the continents
 This is Laurasia
 It smells so different
 A strong breeze blows out here
 The ocean is pitch black
 Let's not seek shelter
 I wanna freeze and smell your neck
 ♪
 Soon every one of us will be dead
 In the great scheme of things
 It makes no difference
 It's all the same
 But let's not get sentimental
 Eyes on the water
 Between the continents
 This is Gondwana
 It smells so different
 A cold wind blows out here
 The sea's already dead
 Let's get in the water
 Let our bodies be the last
 Feel the cold
 Feel the night
 Creep up to me
 Let's stop and wait
 Until we freeze together
 And rest like this forever
 Creep inside my bones
 Where you have lied
 Since the day that we were born
 Since the day that we were born
 Sea level rise
 We'll be among the 5 percent
 We'll survive the Great Dying
 There is no denying
 As the chosen few
 Because that's all we've got to know
 And that's all you gotta know
 ♪
 I am not here, but you can
 Still write me
 Like in the beginning
 You're no longer next to me
 But this is
 How it's always been
 You were a ghost
 Before you became real
 That's how we got to know
 That's how we got to know
 ♪
 Now that you are not here
 Now that we no longer talk
 I can't stop to remember
 How you've been offended
 When you realized
 That I'd kill to relieve a load
 Yes, I'd kill to relieve a burden
 Feel the cold creep inside
 I am losing you to your fears
 Grown way out of scale
 Yes it's true what they say
 I don't love humanity
 Not a bit
 But I do value empathy
 While retaliating iniquities
 Sea level rise
 It's the beginning of the Great Dying
 Soon it will be over
 Long time to recover
 30 million years
 Yes, I'd kill to relieve the load
 Yes, I'd kill to relieve a burden

 I am not here, but you can
 Still write me
 Like in the beginning
 You're no longer next to me
 But this is how it's always been
 You were a ghost
 Before you became real
 That's how we got to know
 That's how we got to know
 Contemplating, trouble making
 Even now, the air is getting hot and dry
 Sticking to your skin and your open wounds
 The sun burns us alive
 That's how we got to know
 That's how we got to know
 That's how we got to know
