Lyrics

It's a future where the sky's always red The oceans have risen, and the forests are dead Cities are drowning, in waves of despair And the heat's so relentless, you can't breathe the air The rich live in towers, high up in the clouds While the poor scrape for water, in desperate crowds Borders are closed, there's no place to run The world's now divided, and survival's begun We lost it all, the warnings were clear But we closed our eyes, driven by fear The earth cried out, and we let it fall Now we're left in the silence, having lost it all The crops barely grow, and the soil's turned to dust Every drop of clean water, a matter of trust Wildfires rage, like a curse on the land While storms tear through cities, like a beast out of hand The government's broken, power's gone cold Greed and corruption, left chaos untold People turn violent, for food, for a breath Law and order are whispers, in the silence of death We lost it all, the warnings were clear But we closed our eyes, driven by fear The earth cried out, and we let it fall Now we're left in the silence, having lost it all There's no more winter, no more spring's bloom Just endless summer, and a sense of doom No birds in the sky, no fish in the sea Just the echo of memories, of what used to be Once we had forests, and rivers that shone Now we've got deserts, where life can't hold on Children are crying, the stars have all blurred And we're locked in a world, where no voice is heard We lost it all, the planet's last call What was green and alive, now ashes that fall Traded our future, for power and gold Now we're left in the darkness, where stories go untold If we could turn back, would we change what we've done? Would we listen to reason, or keep on the run? There's still time to rise up, before it's too late But maybe... we can rewrite... our fate...
