Faded Plastic

[Verse] What will people say about today When everything we've left behind decays? [beat] Nothing we have now will truly last In ways things used to from the past. [Verse] Things from not so long ago falling apart To see this waste around me breaks my heart [beat] Now we make more low quality stuff When the planet's just had about enough Whoa-oh-oh [Verse] Things from not so long ago falling apart To see this waste around me breaks my heart [beat] Now we make more low quality stuff When the planet's just had about enough Whoa-oh-oh Whoa-oh-oh [beat] [pre-chorus] And we point back at our forefathers We inherited their curse [beat] Denying that we're even worse In a climbing exponential curve [Chorus] Sure, we did not ask for any of this But how much of us would cast a wish To return the plastics we grew up with [beat] Those treasured trinkets will all be dust Among the wastelands we built out of lust For the satisfaction of buying useless junk Whoa-oh-oh [beat] Woe [beat] Woe [beat] Woe [beat] [pre-chorus] And we shout back at our forefathers We will blame and we will curse [beat] Denying that we're even worse We could survive but will we learn? [Chorus] Sure, we did not ask for any of this But how much of us would cast a wish To return the plastics we grew up with [beat] Those treasured trinkets will all be dust Among the wastelands we built out of lust For the satisfaction of buying useless junk [beat] Woe [beat] Woe [beat] Woe [beat] [pre-chorus] And we shout back at our forefathers We will blame and we will curse [beat] Denying that we're even worse We could survive but will we learn? [Chorus] Sure, we did not ask for any of this But how much of us would cast a wish To return the plastics we grew up with [beat] Those treasured trinkets will all be dust Among the wastelands we built out of lust For the satisfaction of buying useless junk [beat] Woe [beat] Woe [Spoken Female Narrator] This is the way the world ends. Not with a bang but with glitter.
