Lyrics
LIFE ON EARTH
Don't say the only world is this one
Don't say we came so far for this
Don't take my blue skies and turn them red
In time we'll all go down for this one
Down into the flames
Sea and sky the same
A purple orange flame
Ground one, I can't locate the signal
Was it all a myth my dad would tell
Such a great disappointment to be alone
Were they here? If they were they didn't stay
Nothing stands today
No one left to blame
Sea and sky the same
A purple orange flame
Now I really want to know
What you did for the last time
And now for what it's worth
I'm resigned to report no life on earth
No one left to blame
Sea and sky the same
A purple orange flame
Now I really want to know
What you did for the last time
And now for what it's worth
I'm resigned to report no life on earth
