Solastalgia Lyrics


Does the fall

Of our world

Have now got

Ineluctable for real?

Like a slope

A tide you cannot swim upstream?

I don't know, my God, I don't know what to do now

The vivid colours and the smiles

Hide the storm that's to come

We prefer false hopes and denial

But we can't get away

No we can't get away

To hell with it

I just don't have the strength to find

The right path through these maze of contradictions

A sword of Damocles hangs over my mind

And I can't think of any solution

The road is long there is no time

And some fools claim everything's fine

I wish they're right to my dismay

(Be)cause we can't get away

Just fear and disarray

Sure, let's close our eyes and take a nap

As mankind is wiped off the map

I won't forget to turn off the tap

It’s your most valuable contribution

I'll only live once, that's a fact

Does what I do have an impact

On our chances to survive?

(Be)cause we can't get away
