- Pollution
(Song by me)
Earth is not dying
It is being killed
But for us it is gratifying
As we continue to build!
Playing in flower fields
Laying in dead chamomiles
Hoping the truth will not get revealed
After all, we are stuck here for a while
My ears hurt, the world is too loud
Contaminating the peaceful nature
Are you not at all proud?
We are creating new cultures!
Earth is not dying
It is being killed
But for us it is gratifying
As we continue to build!
The flowers cannot grow
There is too much light
No problem, we can edit photos
To hide the suffering sight
I cannot see the stars on the sky
Only unnatural colours
Perhaps it is time for a goodbye
We need a new home to get discovered
Earth is not dying
It is being killed
But for us it is gratifying
As we continue to build!
Mass death wiping out important trees
Does not matter, we can plant more
Killing important insects, especially bees
We hide that fact in our folklore!
Too many people, too many resources
New life is killing us all
Coughing has made my throat hoarse
Greed will be our downfall
My lungs feel so heavy
Now at day even, we cannot see the blue
Every day, we have more people to bury
We must overproduce every breakthrough
My breathing pipe is swollen
They are no longer clean
All of Earth's innocence we have stolen
And we paint our waste in green
Earth is not dying
It is being killed
But for us it is gratifying
As we continue to build!
My vessels are clogged
My blood getting me sick
Everything is covered in a fog
Of course, we hide that in our politics
