This is the story of child

The heiress to a broken world

In which she has to recide

She's the product of a bygone time

Before decline

When greed was the only code by which we'd abide

But look, those days are gone now

They've been replaced with the tune of a way more song

How could we let it go this far

We tore it apart

We took the only world we have

And just stripmined it all

Anihilation!

Another species wiped off the face of the earth

Better jot that one down in the margin somewhere

Deforestation!

Acres of land left barren and cold

It's getting harder to breathe!

We take this world that we have for granted

Spend it all and I can't stand it

It falls apart we don't understand it

Look at what is happening

This blood is on our hands

How high a price are we willing to pay?

Maybe that tale was a bit to deep for you to grasp it all

So let me tone it down and get a little bit more personal

You've got a smartphone in your pocket don't you?

With a tablet at home for watching netflix on

And a laptop in your backpack

So let me tack Mac

To the list of all the

Shit that you have stacked

No scratch that

'cause in a couple of months

You'll get a new one

Another cycles begun

And as the next gen is up for release

You'll throw the old one on the pile like the piece of thrash that it is!

Moutains of waste

Growing higher and higher!

As landfills poison the ground

Factories!

Smokestacks spewing fumes into the air

Has it always been this hard to breathe?

We take this world that we have for granted

Spend it all and i can't stand it

It falls apart we don't understand it

Look at what is happening

We ignore all the signs we're given

Desolate the world we live in

We still have time we can make it better

Change the fate of the earth

Consume

Discard

Consume

Discard

We consume and discard

Until nothing remains!

FUCK

This mentality

Where out of sight is out of mind

So we just let it be

I can't claim I'm any better

But at least I try to make a difference

In the world to keep our children alive

We take this world that we have for granted

Spend it all and i can't stand it

It falls apart we don't understand it

Look at what is happening

We ignore all the signs we're given

Desolate the world we live in

We still have time we can make it better

Change the fate of the earth

FUCK

This mentality

Where out of sight is out of mind

So we just let it be

I can't claim I'm any better

But at least I try to make a difference

In the world to keep our children alive
