Anthropocene Lyrics by Peter Oren

Anthropocene

2017

[Verse 1]
Where will I go when I don’t want to be?
With idle hands awaiting catastrophe
Here, here, here in the Anthropocene
Here, here, here

[Chorus]
How will we escape this hell we made?
How will we escape this hell?

[Verse 2]
Is it a park? Is it a plaza? Where do I need to be?
Is it a pipeline? Is it some refinery?
Well change ain’t coming down from above
I’ll no soonеr hold office than a Molotov

[Chorus]
How will we escapе this hell we made?
How will we escape this hell?

[Verse 3]
Pick your poison or pick your pride
Soon there’ll be nowhere left to hide
Well soil is cleaner than money
We need bees for more than their honey

[Chorus]
How will we escape this this lunacy?
How will we escape this hell?
How will we escape this hell they paved?
How will we escape this hell?
How will we escape this this hell we made?
How will we escape this hell?
