When the lakes have dried and leaves have rot As we choke upon the air we breathe In anguished cries, shall we ask "Where have we got?" "Is this really how man will leave?"
As the waters rise and drown out our screams When acid falls from clouds above With swollen fish floating down the streams At what point will we say enough?
As the animals die from poisoned bile From the ground in which they fed We shrug and scoff, "That won't happen for awhile" Nestled comfortably in our beds
When the world is grey and full of dust When the last living things are us From the gutters, disease approaches As we spread across the world like roaches.
