The fake news age is the time in which
Science doesn't mean more than just opinion
We have more and more climate change deniers
And those deniers are our rulers

Eradicated diseases are coming back
Because of the anti vaccine movement
Amid deaths, deforestation, extinction
And inequality, billionaires get richer

There are microplastic particles in the oceans
Forests are burning in fire for cattle to graze
The skies in cities are filled with carbon dioxide
And still, we pretend nothing is happening

Now people need to know what is science
We have to show that science saves lives
Science is structured on method, on logic
And it's the best tool we have to understand

So we walk holding hands
Into our own extinction and destruction
There will be no meteor to kill us
Our murderers will be ourselves

We aren't blind but we can't see
That the future is coming
And soon we'll have no turning back
And darkness will be our final fate

Now human rights are being put in check
Because the privileged care only for their own rights
They want to make a country for the majorities
They want the minorities to bow or disappear

Black people persecuted and killed by police
Women earning lower income in the same jobs
Homossexuals attacked by religious fundamentalists
Refugees being separated from their children

So we walk holding hands
Into our own extinction and destruction
There will be no black hole to kill us
Our murderers will be ourselves

We aren't blind but we can't see
That the future is coming
And soon we'll have no turning back
And darkness will be our final fate

Democracy is on the brink of death
Fascists are defending military intervention
Hate groups grow all around the world such as
The far right Movement orchestrated by Bannon

Voters receive fake news on Whatsapp or Facebook
And they believe more in social media than experts
Or even more than their own family and friends
We are on the age of post truth and alternative facts

So we walk holding hands
Into our own extinction and destruction
There will be no black hole to kill us
Our murderers will be ourselves

We aren't blind but we can't see
That the future is coming
And soon we'll have no turning back
And darkness will be our final fate

So we walk holding hands
Into our own extinction and destruction
There will be no star collision to kill us
Our murderers will be ourselves

We aren't blind but we can't see
That the future is coming
And soon we'll have no turning back
And darkness will be our final fate
