lyrics

Letter to the Last Generation
by Simone White

first we weren't sure
then we ignored
all the way down
what doesn't bend
breaks in the end
hi ho
now we know

by the time you find this
it might be too late
all the signs were there
we simply did not
could not
would not
care

you'll never see
the blue in the sky
oh no
you'll never understand that we tried
no no
you'll never know

by the time you find this
it will be too late
why did we wait
all the signs were there
we simply did not care

no one could be blamed for the lies
everyone was named at the trials
those hollow hollow hollow hollow hollow
hollow
promises

first we weren't sure
then we ignored
all the way down
what doesn't bend
breaks in the end
hi ho
now we know

by the time you find this
it will be too late
why did we wait
all the signs were there
we simply did not care
please take care
