Prophecy Of Misery
Music: Nathan Da Silva and Paul Gillespie
Lyrics: Nathan Da Silva and Daniel Da Silva

Living in a world that’s taken for granted
Pushing every limit without a thought
Veer your eyes around and see the violence
But you bury your head in sand with silence

We can help each other but we’re in denial
Some might say that we will never be saved
If you fear in hesitation, you’ll be left in desperation
Knowing that our existence will be our death

The more I think about this life, the more I tend to wonder
If what I see around me will be gone before we know what’s wrong
Imagine all our focus driving us toward a way to rebuild
Unless we learn to change, our prophecy of misery will be true

Our desire for power is out of control
Funding total corruption and conduct of war
Give your love to the world ’cause she’s forsaken
Turn to those before you and reawaken

The more I think about this life, the more I tend to wonder
If what I see around me will be gone before we know what’s wrong
Imagine all our focus driving us toward a way to rebuild
Unless we learn to change, our prophecy of misery will be true

We are the ones who create (ones who create)
This downward spiral we try to berate

I dream a dream
Where everything is withered and decayed
We’ll live that dream
‘Cause everyone is misery we sustain

Taunting
Every thought about this world is
Haunting
What I hope to see

The more I think about this life, the more I tend to wonder
If what I see around me will be our last chance to prevent misery
Prevent misery
Prevent misery

Hear the message, see what’s really happening
Can’t you see that this is your own misery (x2)
