Dying Earth
EXARSIS Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Earth close to death every day
Show no respect for the environment
Gonna get revenge someday
Spreading the disease
Burning down the trees
This is the place where i live
Nothing will stand
Soon dying earth near the end
Municipal waste the trash on the streets
Pollution by the factories
Animals and plants dying in ignorance
Toxics are filling the seas
Spreading the disease
Burning down the trees
This is the place where i live
Destroyed land
Nothing will stand
Soon dying earth near the end
Earth in crisis, nature turns to hell,
Exarsis, environment is ill,
Greenhouse effect is the warning bell,
The solution is to change our will
The Earth is dying
As sun is shining and we destroy
The nature's bleeding
And lives are leaving dying earth
Spreading the disease
Burning down the trees
This is the place where i live
Destroyed land
Nothing will stand
Soon dying earth near the end
The song "Dying Earth" by Exarsis is a powerful critique of the way humanity has treated the environment and the consequences of these actions. It begins by imploring listeners to open their eyes to the reality of the situation: the earth is dying. The lyrics condemn the lack of respect for the environment, highlighting the various factors contributing to the destruction of the planet. From the trash on the streets to the pollution from factories, the earth is facing a crisis. The chorus is a powerful repetition of "spreading the disease, burning down the trees," which serves as a reminder of the destructive actions of humans.
The second verse of the song focuses on the devastating impact that human behavior has on animals and plants, with the toxic effects filling the seas. The lyrics make it clear that the destruction is not only causing environmental issues but ultimately will lead to the destruction of humanity as well. It ends with a call for change and a warning sign of the greenhouse effect, stating that the only solution is to change our ways. The song ends with a somber tone, with the line “The nature's bleeding and lives are leaving dying earth” emphasizing the harsh reality of the situation.
