[Intro]
Seems we just let things burn
When will we ever learn not to be scared
[Verse 1]
Of what the future might bring
It’s easier to play it safe
But we have to do something
That something cannot be nothing
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Cannot live like old days
All of it’s gone away
[Chorus 1]
The longer you leave it, the harder it’s gonna get
We haven’t accepted it yet
What’s next?
We already know the effects
[Verse 2]
As I walk outside
No, the troublе doesn’t end therе
When people can’t breath the air
Living everyday in fear
Tomorrow that could be you, so you should care
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Cannot live like old days
All of that’s gone away
[Chorus 2]
The longer you leave it, the harder it’s gonna get
We haven’t accepted it yet
What’s next?
We already know the effects
There’s still time left
[Chorus 3]
The longer you leave it, the harder it’s gonna get
We haven’t accepted it yet
What’s next?
We already know the effects
[Chorus 4]
The longer you leave it, the harder it’s gonna get
We haven’t accepted it yet
What’s next?
We already know the effects
There’s still time left
[Chorus 5]
The longer we leave it
The closer the path to regret
It won’t work out for the best
It’s our planet (I can’t stand this)
None of this has to be set
It’s not too late yet
