Napalm Death - On The Brink of Extinction

Track number four from British Grindcore band Napalm Death's newest studio album, Time Waits for no Slave.
Lyrics:
Born between chaos and hatred - a lottery of fate
We sit on the brink of extinction
The world lies in wait
Just a scratch on the surface
Of time that will wash away
We delude ourselves with the notion
That we are here to stay

As life starts to shrink
An impending state of neurosis
Will we awake from this negligent narcosis?

On the brink, the brink of extinction
We're on the brink, the brink of extinction

Locked together in a mindless campaign
It's only now we see
Appreciation is the one redemption
For all that lives and breathes
Like a virus it's conscious - impure
We have farmed disease
It's time now to step back
And find an inner peace

As life starts to shrink
An impending state of neurosis
Will we awake from this negligent narcosis?

On the brink, the brink of extinction
We're on the brink, the brink of extinction

Will we avoid a natural selection?
Do we have the right to survive the failures?
Nature, its force - the scales unbalanced
What's the next step? How do we evolve?

Can we avoid a natural selection?
Do we have the right to survive the failures?
Nature, its force - the scales unbalanced
What's the next step? What can we resolve?

[kepone405]

The best part of the song is from 0:00 - 3:30

[2122Hellfire]

Those last couple of lyrics before the last chorus are so true.

So empty without Jesse.

I fucking salute Napalm Death's being. They know what's going on. Mark "Barney" Greenway never gives up.

[Meepeth]

Napalm Death have to be one of the most consistent bands ever. Even their 'worst' albums are just a little boring, not flat out terrible.

OMG.  Napalm death still belting out kickass albums!! YES!!!

[Vampirsch]

Saw them 2 months ago here at Brasília, Brasil. This song played live is sooo much faster than the original one. I still have some bruises from that show! Br00tal as fuck.
