Oh can't you feel We're trapped inside this modern-day cliché A lifetime spent with wasted words Instead of helping hands We found ourselves a screen That pictures what we need We're captivated by our blind beliefs We watch the trees burn down We watch the people drown We feast while others bleed Keep pointing fingers while we preach We taste the acid rain Yet we refuse to take the blame The writings on the wall We are no different As years go by Will we wonder every river has run dry So little time is left We need to think and self-reflect We face our own demise and drown in selfishness We need to start and act We are not infinite We found ourselves a screen That pictures what we need We're captivated by our blind beliefs We watch the trees burn down We watch the people drown We feast while others bleed Keep pointing fingers while we preach We taste the acid rain Yet we refuse to take the blame The writings on the wall We are no different Step back We are no different - no How do we manage to ignore Mother earth's desperate wake-up call She's broken and she's borrowed If we don't learn from yesterday We can't safe tomorrow We watch the trees burn down We watch the people drown We feast while others bleed Keep pointing fingers while we preach We taste the acid rain Yet we refuse to take the blame The writings on the wall We are no different
