Black, The Lyrics
Unknown substance
A putrid cloud
Choking all within
Results of progress
A noxious waste
Floating in the air
Living free? Chemically
So now our world is fading
into slowly burning out
Prime Wealth? Toxic Health
Advancing towards extinction
is the way it's turning out
Foul Air? Do you care?
Is cleanness where you live
Going against your common believe
Too much slime, insufficient time?
In a suffocated future
will you find the time to breathe
Jammed in one place
Blind in haste
Progress can't wait
A life in waste
Tending towards - Technology
Reverse of: life's biology
Chemical comatose
Radiation overdose
Burning, melting flesh
Leaking slime of dissolving waste
Overflowing blackness of death
Creation is being torn down by abuse
Infringement of the substance and our use
Elements decomposing, dilution is too slow
Every contribution to the evolution
Its bad gets worse; deathly course
Swallowed in Black
Faced with reality?
Search your memory
Nothing dead ever comes back
The Black
A putrid cloud
Choking all within
Results of progress
A noxious waste
Floating in the air
So now our world is fading
into slowly burning out
Prime Wealth? Toxic Health
Advancing towards extinction
is the way it's turning out
Foul Air? Do you care?
Is cleanness where you live
Going against your common believe
Too much slime, insufficient time?
In a suffocated future
will you find the time to breathe
Blind in haste
Progress can't wait
A life in waste
Reverse of: life's biology
Radiation overdose
Burning, melting flesh
Leaking slime of dissolving waste
Overflowing blackness of death
Infringement of the substance and our use
Elements decomposing, dilution is too slow
Every contribution to the evolution
Its bad gets worse; deathly course
Search your memory
Nothing dead ever comes back

Like most of Sadus' songs on this album (Swallowed in Black), it's about the environment.
That's interesting. I guess I should pay more attention to Sadus; they're a great band. M'thinks you're right about this song. The deterioration of the environment.
Yeah, its all about pollution. I heard that they were inspired by Kreator's "Toxic Trace" to write and create environmentally concerned tunes. Its good stuff though. I much prefer this style of technical deathrash to Athiest's work. Both are good, but Sadus still can write SONGS and be super technical.
