Climate Change LSC Songwriting Challenge
So the end of the world is nigh,
and there's nothing to stop you leaving,
and if you wanted to question why,
you should've done more than stare at the ceiling,
in your life,
you have cried,
it won't happen in my time,
in your time
it's alright,
we committed the same crime
and its too late to build that ark,
as the sun leaves you in the darkness,
and the children with broken hearts,
are left with nothing that they can harvest
and the oil that sits on the sea,
is the legacy that your leaving,
and if you wanted to question me,
you should've done more than stare at the ceiling,
in your life,
you have cried,
it won't happen in my time,
in your time
it's alright,
we committed the same crime
And the money that you have made,
is just as worthless as how you made it,
and as the sunlight begins to fade,
well, there isn't a way you can save it,
So make you way to the one you love,
and say your sorry for killing the planet,
and then pray to the world above,
It's a world that you can no longer inhabit,
you've been bad,
and that's sad,
as you seemed such a bright boy,
just like your dad,
and his too,
but there's no telling any of you
