Until It's Gone

Buildings will replace the trees

Pollution will replace the air we breathe

I'm close to the mountain, just miles away

But I can't see the hills from here today

We can't just let it pass us by

And as I look into the sky

Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long

Take a picture of this place cos extinction is not so far away

Our skin will fry like a steak well done

When there's nothing between us and the sun

We can't just let it pass us by

And as I look into the sky

Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long

Until it's gone - Until it's gone

Until it's gone - We'll never miss it until it's gone, gone, gone

All the efforts seem to fall

With cars and cans of aerosol

I feel so guilty, then my pride will die

When I see the grey, self-created sky

Until we find a better way

We'll have to learn from all our big mistakes

Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long

Until it's gone - Until it's gone

Until it's gone - Until it's gone

You'll never miss it until it's gone, gone, gone

Seems like a letter that we cannot send

Fells like aluminum we cannot bend

Tastes like a mixture that we cannot blend

But we must change the course of the recipe to the end, to the end
