Set Your Goals - Gaia Bleeds (Make Way For Man)

I have chosen this track as my pitch as I believe it offers a poppier alternative to our groups first choice of Architects. Set Your Goals are a Californian pop/hardcore band who specialise in being rather catchy but with a hint of heaviness remaining. The band has two vocalists, but that doesn't necessarily mean we would have to, but does provide the alternative. The song is about how we are destroying our planet which means we could have lots of lovely atmospheric scenery shots or we could create our own meaning. I still believe we need a similar interior location for the performance as we would have for 'We're All Alone'. Here is the song with the lyrics below. Enjoy!




Oh!
Stand down
Manifesting a destiny of unavoidable doom
Black wolves are gnashing at our heels
Fangs of accountability all unforeseen or intentionally neglected?

Oh!
The degradation of a home
Humanity sits on its throne
Cover your eyes and ears and know
We can't escape the consequence

And now the rising of septic tides as refuse litters the Pacific Gyre
We continue to drown the ocean in its own waters
Stand down, stand down
Time's out now
Kill like we know how
Killing like we're allowed

Oh!
The degradation of a home
Humanity is so lost
Cover your eyes and ears and know (without remorse)
We can't escape the consequence
And everything's ending

Make way
A failed culture makes its mark existing only to destroy what came first
With no regard for creation
Men play God
Drop unstoppable bombs
All institutions are wrong, but none of them will ever stop

Make way for man (x4)
Bombs away (x3)
No escape

Now turn the other cheek and pretend
Full speed to hatred forcing life against its will
Full speed 'til we're dead
We can�t escape the consequence

Oh! (Bombs away)
The degradation of a home (Bombs away)
Humanity sits on its throne (Bombs away)
Cover your eyes and ears and know (Bombs away)
We can't escape the consequence
No escape
