[A5][Am][G5][A5][G5]
[A5]
[Am]Born[A5] between chaos[Eb5] and[D5]

[Verse 1]
[B5]hatred [C]- a[G5] lottery[A5] of fate
We sit on the brink of [Eb5]extinc[B]tion
[A5]The [G5]world[A5] lies in wait
Just a scratch on the surface
[B5]Of t[A5]ime t[G5]hat w[A5]ill
[Am]wash away[C]
[Am]We delude [A5]ourselves with the notion
[G#5]That w[A5]e are here to stay

[Verse 2]
[G5]As l[E5]ife s[Eb5]tarts [B]to sh[B5]rink
An im[E5]pending [D#5]state [D#m]of
[B]neurosis[B5][D#m][D#5][B]
[B5]Will we awake [E5]from this negli
[B]gent [D#m]nar co[B]sis[B5]?

[Verse 3]
[D#5]On the[B][B5][A5][Am][Eb5]
[Ebm]brink, the [B5]brink of [D5]ex t[A5]incti[G5]on
[C]We'[Eb5]re on [B]the[B5] brink,[A5]
[Am]the [Eb5]brink of extinction[A5]
[Am][A5][Eb5][B][G5][G#5][A5]
[Am][A5][D5][B5][C5][G5][A5]

[Verse 4]
[G5]Lock[E5]ed to[A5]gether in a mindless campaign[C5]
[G5]It's [A5]only now we see
[E5]Apprec[A5]iation is the one redemption
[Am]For [G#5]all th[A5]at lives and breathe[C]s
[A5]Like a virus it's conscious
[G5]- impure
[A5]We have farmed [Am]disease
[E5]It's [A5]time now [Am]to s[A5]tep ba[Am]ck
[G#5]And find a[A5]n inn[G5]er peace[Eb5]
[B]As

[Verse 5]
[B5]life starts to shrink
An impending [B]state [Ebm]of neur[B]
[B5]osis[B#][Eb5][B]
[B5]Will we awake from this [E5]negli
[D#5]gent narc[B]osi[B5]s?
[B#]On the[D#5]

[Verse 6]
[B]bri[D5]nk,
[A5]the [Am]brink[Eb5] of ex[B]tinc ti[B5]on[A5][Am]
[G5]We're on t[Am]he br[Eb5]ink, t[B]he brink of extinc[A5]tion[Am][Eb5][A5]

[Verse 7]
Will [D5]we avoid a natural selec
[F#]tion?
[Ebm]Do we have the right to
[B]survive the failures?
[D5]Nature, it's force - the scales
un[F#]balanced
[A5]What's the next [D5]step? How [Cb]do we [Eb5]evolve?[Ebm]
[Ebm][Ebm][D5][B5][Ebm][A5][D5][Eb5]
[F#]

[Verse 8]
[Cb]Can we avoid a nat u[Gb]ral selection?
[Ebm]
[Cb]Do we have the right to
survive the [Gb]failures?
[Eb5]Nature, [Cb]it's[D5][Eb5][Gb][D5][A5][D5][D5]
[D5]forc[Am]e - t[B]he scales unbalanced[B]
[D#m]What's [B]the next s[B]tep? What
