lyrics

Everyone I know is depressed
Resistance is a stamina test
Rise up, wonders of the world!
In awe of stars we soar through space, science can save the human race
Believe what's proven to be true
You can't predict where it will start, the rebels guard the national parks -
Hold on to the wonders of the world!
Everyone you loved, everyone you loved was living on this world
Reality show celebrities and grifters run democracy, hello American hypocrisy
And now the school are battlegrounds, thought and prayers won't help us now, goodbye wonders of the world
Everyone you loved, everyone you loved was living on this world!

Machu Picchu, caribou, gibbons, lemurs, Maybe me and you...

Polar bears, the Iberian Lynx, the Everglades, the Barrier Reef
The tropical rainforests of Sumatra and Madagascar Are dying
Our kids are dying, People of color, transgender people are dying, marginalized people are dying
The only things that seem to be thriving are racism, division and inequality
And these are the things we should be killing
We are doomed by ignorance! We are doomed by greed! Everybody’s doomed!

Everyone you loved, everyone you loved, everyone you loved, was living on this world
Everyone you loved, everyone you loved, everyone you loved, was living on this world (in awe of stars we soar through space)
