The 6th Wave Lyrics by Stornoway

You Don’t Know Anything

2013

Conquerors of this world
We rule the land and seem so superior
To beast and bird drive them out
Unless they make us richer

What's it got to do with the rivets on an airplane's wing?
Well there's only so many that we can't fly without
What's it got to do with a library of unread books?
Well we don't know what we're losing as we throw them out

Commanders of the future:
We plan to save the world while we
Clear the trees and plunder the luxuries
We're stealing from our children

What's it got to do with the rivets on an airplane's wing?
Well there's only so many that we can fly without
What's it got to do with a library of unread books?
Well we don't know what we're losing as we throw them out

What's it got to do with the frog in the tree in Ecuador?
It's the morning indicator on your car dashboard
What's it got to do with the dog on the lead on the woodland walk?
Well if you find you're attached to the rest of the natural world you care!

You care
You care about the 6th wave and you're scared
You care about the 6th wave and you're scared
You're scared
You care about the 6th wave and you're scared
You care about the 6th wave and you're scared
