The heavens above open up in our mind
eating away at who we are
I ask myself how could we be so blind

Warning after warning
we still ignored
And all that's left is a world in mourning

Nothing left but the land
no trees, no plants, no life at all
All that remains is sand

The sea rose
Homes, businesses and lives destroyed
But this is the path we chose

Industry ripped life from the Earth
The atmosphere turned toxic
We found out what we were really worth

Sand and seas
but no trees

Could life restart
or could we survive
Maybe if we're smart
