Lyrics
[Verse 1]
First tree—felled.
You didn't see... didn't wanna know.
They say:
If a redwood falls
And no one hears...
It don't exist.
Or just a cabbage left on my list?
[Chorus]
And you kept on...
Unpunished, immune, exempt...
In your gilded den.
[Verse 2]
Forest—gone.
Fire ate it all. Guilty man—handed in.
That's the point,
Damn sun—devours.
Why now?
You didn't ask... Holy innocence!
Coincidence?
You said: "I don't know."
Followed your law—
To live better.
"I don't know, and I don't wanna know."
[Chorus]
And you kept on...
Unpunished, immune, exempt...
In your gilded den.
[Verse 3]
Rain drowned the city.
Prayed for the rich man's property.
Sea swallowed the shore.
Screamed: "Run from the stingray's roar!"
[Bridge]
Jungle—now a wasteland.
Relief.
You weren't there.
Explanations.
Demands.
Oh, children—
Always want to play.
You said: "I don't know."
Followed your law—
To live better.
"I don't know, and I don't wanna know."
[Chorus]
And you kept on...
Unpunished, immune, exempt...
In your gilded den.
[Verse 4]
Now the sun won't rise...
Dust chokes the skies.
Black decor, your face—
Oh! It's a new race?
Greenhouse burns the world.
Your ice cream—melted...
And you think you're through?
[Verse 5]
Don't know if it's dawn...
Or if it's dusk... The heat burns.
Now you know
What you didn't wanna learn—
After the ice cream drips...
You're the one who melts.
[Outro]
No one blames you...
No one explains...
No one asks...
Just begs—
To live.
But all you need to know...
You can melt now...
Exempt...
In the wreckage...
Of your gilded den.
