let's go down to the lake and take a swim in toxic waste
|
i dive in the buildings, soar so high i cannot see the sky
|
there's something strange about this big city
|
i think i can do without this big city life
|
i'll move to the mountains and build my own log cabin
|
and enjoy being alone all by myself
|
instead of feeling lonely on this crowded train downtown
|
perhaps it was the industrial revolution that led the way
|
to the pollution of our planet
|
that and the evolution of technology
|
perhaps it couldn't have been avoided
|
the paradox of technology is that it may save what we've destroyed
|
but who really cares about having cleaner air
|
factories roar everyday and poullute the air away
|
and what about the landfills and the toxic waste
|
bringing disease to our children, water, and land
|
when i ride the train sometimes i get a stare
|
rarely do i get a smile
|
people are so concerned with their identity
|
no cares enough to talk as human beings
|
but how can we find a solution without communication
|
if it's become too late for our generation
|
let's go down to the lake and take a swim in our mistakes
|
