Shiny Object

You look at t he sky
And see a bright shining light
Is it a star
Or just a satellite

Man and his trickery
It chills me to my bones
It’s pretty sad
That we will never know

We’re the only ones
On this god-forsaken earth
Who destroy the only thing
That gives us birth

We build machines
That make skyscrapers and malls
The same machines
That destroy it all

Get yourself
Get yourself together
The only way to save this world
Is to make yourself better

It’s the year 3000
And a world without trees
Just steel and concrete
We breathe through machines

No forest playgrounds
No tropic paradise
Just a concrete jungle
To live our lives

CHORUS

The sound of thunder
Mutters promises of rain
That’s Mother Nature’s way
Of cleaning the stain

What’s the shiny object
Beside the moon
A star or a planet
Or spaceship ruins
