Genocide Lyrics by Mark Watt

Planets

2024

[Verse 1]
You all sat there and watched as you withdrew
Their rights to fill your revenue
Their bodies which you left with scars
Yet no one knows that the door was ajar

So let's burst it open
Break it down
Where's your supremacy
Where's your crown
No reproduction
And your excuse?
Is that they are no use

[Pre-Chorus]
Save the spiel I know what you did
You can lie in the tall grass and think you've hid

[Chorus]
Genocide
I don't know what else to call it
Human lives
Devoid of choice just cause you thought that
They didn't matter when they did
And you robbed them of their kids
And it's still happening
Why the fuck is it still happening?

[Verse 2]
They say they're sorry for what they've done
But it's a hollow admission of their wrongs
There's no offspring (obviously)
So there's no money to be repaid

They've done it for years
They tried to cover it up
How would the world feel if they saw the hurt
Look it up, look and see
Research it, read the stories

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You prevented it from happening
Your protective walls are fucking fracturing

[Chorus]
Genocide
I don't know what else to call it
Human lives
Devoid of choice just cause you thought that
They didn't matter when they did
And you robbed them of their kids
And it's still happening
Why the fuck is it still happening?

Justified?
You removed the abnormal
I'm mystified
How you got consent you weren't informed of
You said it was for their best
What if you had been next?
What if you were next?
Would it stop happening?

[Bridge]
Why is this happening?
Why is this happening?
Why is this happening?
Why is this happening?

Did you think that we wouldn't know?
Abomination, what a sight to behold
Found inspiration in the devil you know
You're abnormal, You're abnormal

[Bridge - II]
It's time to give up the ghost
It's eugenics at the core
How do they let you away
The hidden betrayal

Some where likely never to conceive
And yet you still gave them no reprieve
For something they hadn't done
The only monsters were you and what you've become

[Chorus]
Genocide
I don't know what else to call it
Human lives
Devoid of choice just cause you thought that
They didn't matter when they did
And you robbed them of their kids
And it's still happening
Why the fuck is it still happening?

Justified?
You removed the abnormal
I'm mystified
How you got consent you weren't informed of
You said it was for their best
What if you had been next?
What if you were next?
Would it stop happening?
