Tragedy - In Formation lyrics

They juggle their numbers, they examine their charts The sum of our ignorance, they submit their reports Year after year, information is suppressed After years of toil and strife and decades of debate The equation is solved correctly, all scientists Finally agreed, happily report their findings Too late to turn back now happily report Report their findings: all life will cease to be The defeat of mankind lies not in their answers But in the question that we never asked in The arrogance of our waste, in the knowledge we refused To retain and when the waves hit again, with baffled Blankness they'll stare, clutching their possessions to their Watery grave, destruction no technology could save Nature's final lesson: no one shall be spared
