There Is No Business To Be Done On A Dead Planet Lyrics

Depleting the need of thieves to care
They rise on Degradations wings
I've seen, we've all seen
We have seen the coming price for our
Self-righteous greed
A cry from earth for changes
A silent plea
Deciphered in a manner
Lost in failure
We've left in-numerous numbers
Failing into tears
They've lost their lives
We're on a killing spree
Killing spree
The blood of tortured souls stains us
The blood of tortured souls stain me
I can't bear it
We must see where this life's leading
Kill these deadly habits
We must see where this lies leading
Then we'll listen, then we'll listen to a cry from earth for changes
A silent plea
Deciphered in a manner
Lost in failure
We've whored this world for riches
And we soon shall see
We've lost our lives
What good is all their money when
There's nothing left to buy?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I think this song is about how our want and greed for material possessions and money and what not is slowly destroying and leaving is with "a dead planet". Something like that. It's fucking awesome though. ASP kicks major ass =D.

I think Power_Hold37 has got the meaning of this song pretty well. I'm so glad these guys are from Oakland ^__^ meaning they'll probably come to san jose again! Can't wait, these guys are talented :)
