Threshold - Consume To Live lyrics

Your rating:

living in the greenhouse growing crops that we can't eat

making money out of poverty turning forests into meat

we got our fingers on the trigger of some suicidal gun

the population's getting bigger underneath a dying sun

there's a fire in the furnace and there's nothing left to burn

buried waste has reached the surface is there nothing left to learn?



every day ozone getting layered every way life is getting worse

everybody's lung is getting cancer everyone has something more to lose

every country armies are rising every gene splitting into two

every breath monoxide getting stronger every sea whales are beached



economies are growing subsistence life is dead

we can't sustain this growth and things are coming to a head

we gotta learn to climb down the ladder of success

with two feet on the ground we gotta clean up all this mess

there's a fire in the furnace and there's nothing left to burn

buried waste has reached the surface is there nothing left to learn?



every life extinction is forever every town riots in the streets

every sky greenhouse is affecting every tree dying in the breeze

every plant chemical pollution every song relying on the beat

every lake water getting shorter every heart aching for release



surviving in a world of mass production we must all consume to live

our working lives to give and join the unemployment lines

when confidence is low



a man must try to sell his labour to the highest bid

keep his anger hid and try not to get pulled into

the vicious undertow



but even in the middle classes they fall into that hole

aspiring to that goal of rising from the yoke of

such an exploitative state



consume to live
