Testament

Procrastinating
Pretending to worry
Solving problems by pushing them aside
Wasting time like we've all the time in the world
Deliberation instead of solution
Another term for blatant lies
Biding time like we've all the time in the world

I'm not the only one who thinks we're trying to say,
to the heavens and all who hear us :
Behold all we have made!
We bring destruction we bring war without an end
and then we live in hope that tomorrow never comes
We conquer paradise just to burn it to the ground
And we build a future to honour pasts we've left behind
We bring destruction we bring war without an end
and then we hope that tomorrow never comes

The problems get worse before they get better
We find excuses to divert our eyes
Let tomorrow deal with what we could have done
And if you think we're the future that we build tomorrow,
when was the last day without a war?
We speak of greatness that we have never been

It's just you and me now
It's just you and me against the world
