[Verse 1] Plastic crowns On a landfill throne Shopping carts Rusted to the bone Got a full plate Scraped straight into the trash While the river Runs black like ash [Pre-Chorus] Breathing in the bargain fumes Flash sale in a failing room We keep counting what we own While the ground shakes under our home [Chorus] We eat the world Then we ask why it's gone Empty shelves Heavy skies rolling on We burn it up Then we curse at the smoke Over and over We choke on the joke We eat the world We eat the world [Verse 2] Billboard glare Says "you need more" Piled-up boxes By the back door Got a new god In a branded bag While the oceans Drown under the swag [Pre-Chorus] Every click another cut Every glow another gut We keep buying time on loan While the storm comes carving our names in stone [Chorus] [Bridge] [low vocal register] When the last tree falls Who we gonna blame? (who you gonna blame?) When the last light flicks Will it feel the same? (still playing the game?) [full band kicks in] Are we proud of the mess That we leave behind? Or just scared to look up From the checkout line? [Chorus]
