We're Here For A Cause 03:08
lyrics
Defend the cause and spread the word Defend the cause, make your voice heard Moral and mental progress can be judged by the way We treat animals – that's our cause, we do as we say The voice of the world's conscience, that's what we are However you may try to suppress it, you surely won't get far At the mercy of mankind with no chance to fight Who's the one to show the world how to treat them right? All have their role to play and their place, there is no doubt None is futile or harmful, they all balance out We're here for a cause, laying down the law Moral and mental progress can be judged by the way We treat animals – that's our cause, we do as we say Haven't you learned your lesson in eco-ethic yet? Come and get a closer view now, the closest you can get We're here for a cause, laying down the law

Steal To Breed 03:06
lyrics
Bred in the dirt, loaded in trucks by the thousand, In boxes piled up Living consumer goods, hungry and thirsty Some won't live to see the end of the journey Steal to breed Cripple and kill Steal to breed Luxury pastime or dog fight – As long as it pays it's all right Dished up or used in labs How cruel fate can get? Nothing matters but multiple profit Steal to breed Cripple and kill Steal to breed Buy out of pity or stupidity – Extend and multiply The breeding stock's misery Soulless profiteers If ever get caught No punishment would be harsh enough Steal to breed Cripple and kill Steal to breed

Plunderers Of The Earth 02:43
lyrics
Do we, human beings still have any conscience? Corporate power has no moral sense: Its one and only aim's to devour As much as it can, at anyone's expense Wrong way Dead-end Too late To mend Doesn't it make you wonder My fellow plunderers? We're all going under My fellow plunderers Plunderers of the Earth The Earth's living systems are all in decline now, Natural resources are wasted away And only the message of a sustainable economy Is what we can convey Wrong way Dead-end Too late To mend Doesn't it make you wonder My fellow plunderers? We're all going under My fellow plunderers Plunderers of the Earth

Hyrcanian 03:08
lyrics
Noble yet untamed, A feline known by many names Bright pelage, cinnamon stripes, Predominant in size Caucasus southeast The Caspian sea, As far as the Altai – This is where his race reigned supreme Hyrcanian – rang a solemn tone Hyrcanian – until overthrown The biggest of his kind Out of sight, not out of mind Amu-Darya his last retreat, Then his extinction was complete Claims of him being sighted still No-one proves, no-one will Reckless abandon, Colonization, Habitat waning – All this led to extermination Hyrcanian – rang a solemn tone Hyrcanian – until overthrown The biggest of his kind Out of sight, not out of mind

Altamira 02:42
lyrics
Symbol of fertility, ritual of plenty Life itself is at stake – That's when the choice is made Altamira Inception and preservation, The highest form of art creation The universal treasury of spirituality Altamira All signs have been given, Even for the age we live in With brightness shining, got to let the light in So that life can evolve Otherwise it's going to dissolve Altamira All signs have been given, Even for the age we live in All sings given... All signs given... ...In Altamira

Dog Abuser 02:49
lyrics
Going home, what's that you see? Wouldn't it make anyone angry? There's a man... and his hound held on a short leash, kicked around You read about it every day, you shrug your shoulders and look away What does it take to make you see that idleness is complicity? Violence is breaking loose – animal abuse And now it's on the news – stand accused You don't have any respect for animals at all You don't have any respect for life at all Trembling, whining, bleeding but there's no sign of conceding On top of this, a cigarette being put out on the dog's back You read about it every day, you shrug your shoulders and look away What does it take to make you see that idleness is complicity? Violence is breaking loose – animal abuse And now it's on the news – stand accused Apologies profuse – there's no use Being a bastard is no excuse – stand accused Guilty as charged You read about it every day, you shrug your shoulders and look away – I won’t stand for you and this society of ignorance and cruelty That’s able to patiently endure such senseless torture so rest assured Cries of protest will not be drowned, what goes around always comes around Violence is breaking loose – animal abuse And now it's on the news – stand accused You don't have any respect for animals at all You don't have any respect for life at all
7.
Indirect Genocide 03:57
lyrics
The Indians relied upon and hunted the buffalo for thousands of years. It provided them everything they needed. Not the smallest part of it was wasted: Skin and flesh, sinew and bone... truly gave them all they owned. Their food, clothing, shelter, the center of their belief – They could have lived with the bison for eternity Hold on to pride and tradition Or else you will face expiration Then, with the arrival of the white man, started the gradual process of the buffalo massacre that reached full momentum in the 1870s. Decimated the buffalo, the Indians' spirit crushed also Sustenance extinguished, indirect genocide Today as a necessity exemplified Hold on to pride and tradition Or else you will face expiration

Overfishing / Gone By 2048 02:27
lyrics
Coastal waters, estuaries, open seas – Fishing grounds depleted through centuries Barely twenty-five percent still intact Needs increasing, no-one seems to react Set it out at night, pull it in at dawn Scoop them up by the ton No matter how much seafood's sold The by-catch will be hundredfold Unrestrained and out of control Overfishing is taking its toll What will survive from days of old? Nothing but slime and water mold Unrestrained and out of control Overfishing is taking its toll Bottom trawlers scraping the ocean bed Frail habitats crushed and left for dead Driftnet vessels making their foray Catching and killing all that gets in their way No matter how much seafood's sold The by-catch will be hundredfold Unrestrained and out of control Overfishing is taking its toll What will survive from days of old? Nothing but slime and water mold Unrestrained and out of control Overfishing is taking its toll Set it out at night, pull it in at dawn Scoop them up by the ton What will survive from days of old? Nothing but slime and water mold Unrestrained and out of control Overfishing is taking its toll Fading at an alarming rate – All gone by 2048 Unrestrained and out of control Overfishing is taking its toll

The Last One In The Wild 08:43
lyrics
Gunshots inside the fence, leaving no chance No chance at all for resistance Death by torture impends Marking the end of a wretched existence Bred in a state of disconnection, Only got killed for trophy collection Tumbling down… Struggling up… Thrashing around… Exitus Showing no repentance or shame, Another big game has just been overpowered Feeling so courageous, the one who carries the gun – Yet such a gutless coward Fire one more shot, watch him bleed to death Pose for a picture, make sure you won't forget Tumbling down… Struggling up… Thrashing around… Exitus Stop! Cease canned hunting Stop! No compromise! Stop! Cease canned hunting Stop this cruel and pointless demise The last one in the wild A lonely roar echoes across the plain, unanswered His kind wiped out, he alone must safeguard his own survival Just one bullet Striking center mass Then bleed the kill quickly Sever the head and shoulders A trophy on the wall Let a painted trail of blood Greet dinner guests within the hall The corner of smiling lips Stretched and stitched around the back That smile would last forever If only the animals could shoot back Drain lifeless veins Replace your eyes with glass The game will change forever When the animals shoot back Tumbling down… Struggling up… Thrashing around… Exitus
