5°C

Burning skies iron lungs
Extinctions have begun
Deadlines pass no choices left
Inhaled in every breath
Wildfires rage endlessly
Diamonds falling into the sea
Silence is deafening
When no one hears the screams

All you hold close
Won't be for very long
Like secret fears and exiles
Flooding at your door
The stadiums are hospitals
The empty boarded stores
Atrocities come easily
When nothings on the shelves

Now is the time for goodbyes

The rest of us the best of us
Made ignorant by force
Divided by sciences
Muted from discourse
The maligned hide from reality
The benign by narrow inquiry
Turning a blind eye

All we've learned
Soon will be gone
When waters rise and flow
The fields no longer grow
And no one to remember those
Who brought this upon themselves
They sold the world for a pittance
Of what she was really worth

Now is the time for goodbyes

If only one remains, no one digs their grave
If only one remains, no one digs their grave
When only one remains, no one digs their grave
When only one remains, no one digs their grave

Now is the time for goodbyes
