The Quality Of Life Is Gone
The Quality Of Life Is Gone
The water is not clear
The food tastes terrible
The air stings the eyes
The fires are many
The arid lands are multiplying
The days and nights are getting hotter
The diseases are many
The cures are a few
The faithful are without a prayer
The parents are no longer able to protect
The children have nowhere to turn
*
For the love of Earth
What did we do to deserve this
For the love of Earth
It is what we didn't do
