Everything to Lose

Temperatures rising at an alarming rate
A generation of early sealed fate
Ice caps melt and oceans rise
Out of sight and out of mind
One day we will look behind
All vain sense of normality
It's all just a fucking guise

The door is closing fast
Locked, forever from the inside
Life on earth will be a thing of the past
We've only got everything to lose

He's just a child, 10 years of age
Aware that he's trapped inside a boiling cage
Sleepless nights of nihilism
Infects his psyche with pessimism
All his hopes and aspirations
Chronically threatened by extinction
Spends his time awaiting doomsday
As glaciers and his future melt away

The door is closing fast
Locked, forever from the inside
Life on earth will be a thing of the past
We've only got everything to lose

Burning fever rises
Attack the cancer at its roots
But our inaction will not suffice

Terminal disease
Burning fever rises
Attack the cancer at its roots
But our inaction will not suffice

Terrestrial vitality is hanging by a thin hair
But it seems nobody cares
Nobody gives a single shit
This threat attacks indiscriminately
Apathetic cosmic catastrophe
We spend our time time awaiting doomsday
As glaciers and our future melts away

The door is closing fast
Locked, forever from the inside
Life on earth will be a thing of the past
We've only got everything to lose

The door is closing fast
As we tie our own noose
The air is getting thinner
Your petty squabbles will have no winner

The door is closing fast
As we tie our own noose
Life on earth will be a thing of the past
We've only got everything to lose
