Unnatural
The Cross Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There was once life in this forsaken land
A corrupting excretion oozes out of a gash
We've cut too deep into Earth's flesh
This wound sheds a thick poisoned blood
Unhealed, it became an unstoppable flood
That squeezes all life out of it's path
It spreads well beyond what we can see
Far reaching threat, we'll never be free
It has rotten more that we will ever know
Our brothers, past, our hopes are burried below
Burried below the mud
Breathing the poisoned blood
Eons will pass
Slowly... through a mud hourglass
For us to helplessly watch this manmade
Disgusting scar never fade
So, have our hearts too been stained?
Our rage withered. Our will drained
Have it carried along our will to fight?
Will we ever find a way to overcome this blight?
Why have we turned our blind eyes
To this deluge of filthy lies?
The lyrics of The Cross's song Unnatural paint a vivid picture of a world that has been ravaged and destroyed by human greed and negligence. The opening lines describe a once fertile and vibrant land that has been reduced to sludge and sand, highlighting the stark contrast between the past beauty of the environment and its current desolate state. The imagery of a corrupting excretion oozing out of a gash in Earth's flesh signifies the deep wounds that humanity has inflicted on the planet through its reckless exploitation of natural resources.
As the lyrics progress, the focus shifts to the consequences of this environmental degradation. The metaphor of a thick poisoned blood flowing from the wound represents the toxic impact of human activities on the planet, leading to an unstoppable flood that destroys all life in its path. This metaphorical flood symbolizes the destructive power of environmental degradation, crushing everything in its sluggish wrath and spreading beyond human comprehension.
The song's portrayal of the far-reaching threat posed by our mistreatment of the planet serves as a stark warning of the irreversible damage that has already been done. The mention of buried hopes and past brothers hints at the legacy of destruction that we are leaving behind for future generations, emphasizing the urgency of addressing the environmental crisis before it is too late. The haunting image of breathing the poisoned blood and the reference to eons passing through a mud hourglass drive home the idea of time running out for humanity to reverse the damage we have caused.
The final verses of the song question the moral and ethical implications of our actions, challenging us to confront our complicity in the destruction of the environment. The lyrics suggest that our hearts have been stained by our indifference and inaction, our rage and will to fight worn down by the overwhelming scale of the problem. The plea to open our eyes to the deluge of filthy lies reflects a call to awareness and accountability, urging us to acknowledge the consequences of our actions and take responsibility for the future of the planet.

Although all you see now is sludge and sand
Despite the current desolate appearance of the land with its thick polluted layers and debris
There was once life in this forsaken land
This area was once thriving with life before being abandoned and neglected
A corrupting excretion oozes out of a gash
A harmful discharge slowly seeps out of a wound in the earth
We've cut too deep into Earth's flesh
We have dug too far into the earth, causing irreversible damage
This wound sheds a thick poisoned blood
The wound releases toxic substances, causing further harm
Unhealed, it became an unstoppable flood
Without proper healing, the situation escalated rapidly and uncontrollably
That squeezes all life out of it's path
The contamination eliminates all living beings in its way
Crushing everything else with it's sluggish wrath
Destroying everything with a slow but powerful force
It spreads well beyond what we can see
The contamination extends far beyond what is visible to us
Far reaching threat, we'll never be free
The danger extends to a great distance, and we may never escape its grasp
It has rotten more that we will ever know
The harm caused is even greater than we can comprehend
Our brothers, past, our hopes are burried below
Our ancestors and dreams are buried beneath the destruction
Burried below the mud
Hidden beneath the contaminated earth
Breathing the poisoned blood
Suffering from inhaling the toxic substances
Eons will pass
Many ages will go by
Slowly... through a mud hourglass
Time passing slowly like grains through a contaminated hourglass
For us to helplessly watch this manmade
We are left to witness the consequences of our actions
Disgusting scar never fade
The repulsive mark on the earth will never disappear
So, have our hearts too been stained?
Have our souls also been tainted by our actions?
Our rage withered. Our will drained
Our anger has faded and our resolve weakened
Have it carried along our will to fight?
Has it affected our determination to combat this problem?
Will we ever find a way to overcome this blight?
Is there a solution to this devastating plague?
Why have we turned our blind eyes
Why have we chosen to ignore the evident issues?
To this deluge of filthy lies?
To the overwhelming flood of harmful deceit?
