From the recording Still We Try
Lyrics
A billowing smoke stack, a heart of coal,
The willows quit weeping for our tarnished souls,
Spilling out blood black, lost control,
Never been so broken, never be made whole
Idle by idle by, we raze the land and slay the sky
Idle by idle by, its a slow burn suicide
Barrelling blindly, a famished beast,
A harrowing nightmare at a ravaged feast,
The arrows will find me when i expect it least,
I swear I been sweating in this savage heat
Idle by, idle by, we raze the land and slay the sky,
Idle by, idle by, its a slow burn suicide
Idle by, idle by, we raze the land and slay the sky,
Idle by, idle by, its a slow burn suicide
Idle by, idle by, it stains our hands and drains us dry
Idle by, idle by, we might be damned but still we try
