lyrics

Music: N. Da Silva
Lyrics: N. Da Silva

Goodbye blue sky
A wasteland in sight
When we run dry
We’ll bring the decline
Of life

Thirteen thousand in an hour is the destiny
Brutal killings and displacement in conformity
Take advantage now to “better the economy”
See the government fuck the majority

Dig for gold and hijack society
Turn the land into a corporate colony
All to “better Western prosperity”
While we cheat and fuck all humanity

All these lies will kill millions of lives
The 1% that play out our eventual demise
All these lies destroy our future ties
Ignoring all the values that will keep us alive
Goodbye blue sky, a wasteland in sight
When we run dry we’ll bring the decline

When did we lose our connection to the Earth?
The devastation we create must be reversed
Open your eyes and wake up your minds
Open your eyes before it’s too late

Dig for gold and hijack society
Turn the land into a corporate colony
All to “better Western prosperity”
While we cheat and fuck all humanity

Take a stand and we can fight politically
Fight for what is right environmentally
Their morals lack responsibility
Apocalyptic reflection of reality

All these lies will kill millions of lives
The 1% that play out our eventual demise
All these lies destroy our future ties
Ignoring all the values that will keep us alive
Goodbye blue sky, a wasteland in sight
When we run dry we’ll bring the decline
Of life

When we run dry
We’ll bring the decline
