We Were Not
We'll be okay
I promise, my darling, we'll be okay
There may be fire
There may be war
There may be death on every doorstep
But you and I, we'll be okay
The water is rising everyday
The fire is hotter every night
Our skin is scorched every second
There's no room on this planet anymore
They're taking it back, they're taking what belongs to them
And we cannot stay here
But we'll find a way
You and I, we'll be okay
We always find a way
Always
Our leaders have stopped caring
They know they were wrong
They know they didn't do enough
They know it was too late
It was always too late
We were doomed
We're running out of food
And you're running out of life
But I swear, we'll be okay
We have to be okay
Somebody has to pick up the pieces
Somebody has to start a new civilization
So we can start destroying again
And the water gets higher
And the fire gets hotter
And my skin is so red, so scorched
But we have to find a way
Darling,
I don't think we'll be okay
