about

Howling winds sweep down the vacant plains. Resources are scarce. The Earth has dried up while the prosperous quench their thirst in a looming oasis. Hydraulic Empire. Even just a taste could awaken salvation. Abandonment beckons to those who can afford it.

lyrics

Even just a taste could awaken salvation
Humming in my brain the dehydrated tongue
Other than the flames what gives you the right to complain
That the Earth is out of date as it reaches for the sun

Funny what a waste when the dollar sign's defaced
Suddenly the taste is stripped beyond despair
Funny how the habitat devolves into a smoking act
The path to salvation is a breath of fresh air

Feel the flame cause liberty is on the brightest shore
Fuel the flame and infiltrate manifest destiny (etc.)

Out in the solar system searching for the next industrial haven
Chained to this prison planet where The American Dream spontaneously vanished
Out in the solar system searching for the next industrial haven
(Out over the horizon good fortune is waiting for you)
Chained to this prison planet where The American Dream spontaneously vanished
(The sun disappears with a token but this bondage can never be broken)
Forced into suffocation
(Hear the impending explosion)
Abandoned by the chosen for a luxury vacation
(A once in a lifetime promotion)
250,000 years our species has resided here
This is day one of the next evolution
