Lyrics

Oh, sweet people

Addressing people affectionately

What have we done?

Reflecting on collective actions

Tell me what is happening?

Seeking understanding about current events

For all that we've built

Referring to achievements that are collapsing

Tumbles and is gone

Describing the downfall of those achievements


Oh, sweet people

Repeatedly addressing people compassionately

Have you no love for mankind?

Questioning empathy towards humanity

Must you go on killing

Questioning the purpose of destructive actions

Just to pass the time.

Asking if violence is for mere entertainment


The message is so true

Recognizing the authenticity of a warning

The end is really near

Perceiving an imminent end

All these feelings take me down

Emotional turmoil caused by these realizations

It steals the things so dear

Loss of cherished things due to these feelings

Yes, the message is so real.

Affirming the stark reality of the warning

Don't turn all the earth to stone

Advising against making the world lifeless

Because, because, because

Repeating "because" to emphasize reasons

This is your home

Asserting the Earth as everyone's habitat


Oh, sweet people

Reiterating address to people affectionately

what about our children?

Concern for the welfare of future generations

In theaters and video games

Highlighting negative influences on children

They watch what we send to ruin

Impact of destructive content on young minds


Oh, sweet people

Continuing compassionate address to people

What senseless game

Labeling ongoing actions as purposeless

Have we all been playing?

Questioning the meaningfulness of collective behavior

No one but you to blame?

Attributing responsibility to those involved


The message is so true

Reaffirming the imminent end in the message

The end is really near

Stating the proximity of a significant conclusion

All these feelings take me down

Emotional impact of these warnings

It steals the things so dear

Loss of beloved things due to these emotions

Yes, the message is so real.

Reiterating the authenticity of the warning

Don't turn all the earth to stone

Advising against lifeless transformation of the world

Because, because, because

Emphasizing reasons for preserving the world

This is your home

Affirming Earth as a shared dwelling


This is our home.

Reasserting Earth as the collective home
