Lyrics
Who has the means to save us from ourselves

To pull us from the vicious cycles feeding back again

Consume and feed, degenerate

We damage just to liberate

Bought and sold before we could even breathe

I feel like we’re falling

A lifeline just out of our reach

I feel our collapsing

The arrogant numb to our needs

You’re a catastrophe

The one who’s come to devastate

Catastrophist

You stole our innocence

You’re a catastrophe

The one who’s come to devastate

Catastrophist

We never had a chance

How far along before we fade away

So deeply out of focus but it seems we never cared

Deflect, deny, what flows inside

The poison springs internalize

Bought and sold before we could even breathe

I feel like we’re falling

A lifeline just out of our reach

I feel our collapsing

The arrogant numb to our needs

You’re a catastrophe

The one who’s come to devastate

Catastrophist

You stole our innocence

You’re a catastrophe

The one who’s come to devastate

Catastrophist

We never had a chance

Never had a chance

Never had a chance

Who has the means to save us from ourselves

To pull us from the vicious cycles feeding back again

Feeding back again

The bringer of our devastation

You stole our innocence

Bringer of our devastation

It’s you, catastrophist

Consume and feed, degenerate

We damage just to liberate

Deflect, deny, what flows inside

The poison springs internalize

I feel like we’re falling

A lifeline just out of our reach

I feel our collapsing

The arrogant numb to our needs

You’re a catastrophe

The one who’s come to devastate

Catastrophist

You stole our innocence

We never had a chance

You’re a catastrophe

The one who’s come to devastate

Catastrophist

We never had a chance

Never had a chance

The bringer of our devastation

You stole our innocence

Bringer of our devastation

It’s you, catastrophist
