Save the World

Lately I've been feeling like there's nothing we can do
When everyone around us denies our impending doom
Read the room
Our boomer politicians they don't work for me or you
We wanna runaway
But its everywhere
What's the takeaway
People cover their ears
They don't wanna hear
The lack of empathy it's killing me
Why can't they see

All I wanna do is save the world
At least my corner of it
Say we will
But I'm kinda torn about it
Can we still
Make a difference and
Save the world
I try to point my finger at myself
My faith in others is trending down
Feeling hopeless now
Can we still
Make a difference and
Save the world

Global pandemic
They won't even wear a mask
Show respect to my grandma is all that I ask
3 million souls buried in the ground
Doesn't sound like a common cold
Like Fox News told you
Climate change
But behavior doesn't
Can't look away
The planet dies, close your eyes
It's all over, well we tried
Can't deny it, say goodbye
Why can't they see

All I wanna do is save the world
At least my corner of it
Say we will
But I'm kinda torn about it
Can we still
Make a difference and
Save the world
I try to point my finger at myself
My faith in others is trending down
Feeling hopeless now
Can we still
Make a difference and
Save the world

Call me a pessimist
But I'm tired of the bullshit
Oceans rising we know it
God can't save you if you're too dead to pray
What's he gunna say
When you get through his gates
And you tell him
This gift you gave us
It's aflame and we're to blame
Could've stopped it
But we didn't
What a shame
But not our problem
We damn our children not ourselves
We deserve a special place in hell

All I wanna do is save the world
At least my corner of it
Say we will
But I'm kinda torn about it
Can we still
Make a difference and
Save the world
I try to point my finger at myself
My faith in others is trending down
Feeling hopeless now
Can we still
Make a difference and
Save the world
