Nature's Revenge Lyrics

weather
turning
towards a storm
broken down road
continue on
coexistance
imitating paradise

unlike any seen
moist has been dancing
crazy overcast
ash grey wording

constantly pushing
pulling
pushes away

drew back
a rusty knife
guilt ladle
pour it on
understand
i burn inside
how to get out of here
how do you get out of this
nature's revenge
nature

cage craving wonder
the worth of it
scream at the top of your lungs
so many times
tried not to wonder
so many times
tried not to wonder
so many times
tried not to wonder

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.

The planet Earth is finally seeking revenge on mankind. Apparently in the form of severe weather. The end refers to how humans try to reject the idea of completely ruining the planet it finally happens.

We "tried not to wonder" what it'd be like for too long and our excess led to our own downfall

I think this song is about married life, and how one person ends up wanting to kill the other. Guilt, anger, fear, arguments... this kind of relationship in the framework of this song can also be attributed to our destroying of the Earth as the person above this comment has stated...

I agree, jejh. SP were truly great in the 80's and early 90's but now they just plain suck. Their latest albums aren't up to their old standards at all. I miss Duck.

oh, and i forgot to say this is a f***ing amazing song by a band that as of 2007 just isn't as good as they were in the 1990s. they were the most incredible band in the world at that time, and yet very few people know about them or understand them.... what a shame.... i would honestly compare their importance to that of the Beatles. -- dont laugh, it's really true if you listen to SP very closely and read ALL of their lyrics. just an amazing amazing band. incredible lyrics and true "artists". too bad they aren't what they used to be anymore.
