So this is the end of the story Everything we had, everything we did Is buried in dust And this dust is all that's left of us
But only a few ever worried Though the signs were clear, They had no idea You just get used to living in fear Or give up When you can't even picture your future
We walk the plank with our eyes wide open...
Some people offered up answers We made out like we heard, but they were only words They didn't add up To a change in the way we were living
And the saddest thing Is all of it could have been avoided But it was like to stop consuming Is to stop being human And why would I make a change if you won't We're all in the same boat, staying afloat For the moment
And we walk the plank with our eyes wide open, we.. Walk the plank with our eyes wide open
With our eyes wide open we... Walk the plank, we walk the plank
