Until It's Gone Lyrics

Buildings will replace the trees
Pollution will replace the air we breathe
I'm close to the mountain, just miles away
But I can't see the hills from here today
We can't just let it pass us by
And as I look into the sky
Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long

Take a picture of this place cos extinction is not so far away
Our skin will fry like a steak well done
When there's nothing between us and the sun

We can't just let it pass us by
And as I look into the sky
Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long
Until it's gone - Until it's gone
Until it's gone - We'll never miss it until it's gone, gone, gone

All the efforts seem to fall
With cars and cans of aerosol
I feel so guilty, then my pride will die
When I see the grey, self-created sky
Until we find a better way
We'll have to learn from all our big mistakes
Something in the atmosphere is telling me it won't be here for long

Until it's gone - Until it's gone
Until it's gone - Until it's gone
You'll never miss it until it's gone, gone, gone

Seems like a letter that we cannot send
Fells like aluminum we cannot bend
Tastes like a mixture that we cannot blend
But we must change the course of the recipe to the end, to the end
