They Always Come Back - Misery Index

These bastards never die

They just slip and crawl through the fallout filth

Not one will deny

The hairless apes achieved what their god designed

As they wake from seventeen years entombed

Dawn of the Necrocene arrived

Spawn of nuclear waste

Unearthed from ashes they arise

Offal of Earth expelled

Cast right out from her festering wounds

Arc of time beset

This cadaveric discreation

Rise above, the archetype of man

A septic race is born

Bleed and purge, a lesson never learned

Like black, hissing roaches

They always come back

They always come back again

Carved out from ice

Parasites of neo-Neolithic age

Dregs of pestilence

Children of the aftermath

Rise above, the archetype of man

A septic race is born

Bleed and purge, a lesson never learned

Like black, hissing roaches

They always come back

They always come back again

Cryptic life forms and crumbling icons

Ancestors, infected

They spread like viral fire

Embalming, dissolving

The meek inherit nothing

Scumrot humans storming over arctic deserts

A brave new world to conquer

And spread their seeds in virgin waste, end all

Spiral out their dead-end lives as carrion calls echo on

Acid fields, rivers of tar, endlessly

They always come back

They always come back again
