Life Is What - Time We All See

What is life like - After we Kill the Planet – That’s Us

When After All is Said and Done 
There is nothing left as it has all gone
Nothing to say or do
No need to watch the news
We had our time 
We had our say
We just never found a way
Why was that I ask
Did we never grab the task?
We had the world to look after
But we left it even further abused
Then we had found it in the news
No wonder we will no longer exist
Time to leave nature to it

Bleak but powerful, I like that Done and Gone, rhyme by letters but not by sound. I might try that.
