The Tragedy Of The Commons
To another commotionTo another disruptionTo another explosionI raise my glassTo another investmentInto the future of wastelandWell here's to pulling the waistband
I know at least I thought - At least I fightAt least I know at least I triedI know I thought - I know I'll fightTonight I kiss the world goodbye
We are one and one is allThrough self-destruction we fallClose your eyes to darkened skiesOur ignorant demise
To another obsessionOver another possessionAnother deal well madeWell I raise my glassAnd to the blissful ignoringThat the unclaimable objectsDecide our pitfall or prospect
I know at least I thought - At least I fightAt least I know at least I triedI know I thought - I know I'll fightTonight I kiss the world goodbye
We are one and one is allThrough self-destruction we fallClose your eyes to darkened skiesOur ignorance in demise
This will lead to personal gainBut I won't feel any personal painAll the global implications in vainYes the price is high but so are the stakesThis belongs to all of us soReally this belongs to no one at allWhen it comes to owning up to our fallBetter to brace yourself for the end of it all
At least I thought - At least I fightAt least I know at least I triedI know I thought - I know I'll fightTonight I kiss the world goodbye
We are one and one is allThrough self-destruction we fallClose your eyes to darkened skiesOur ignorant demise
