How Did We Let Things Get to This Point Songtext

von Red Lights Flash

We missed the chance,
We missed the train
The biggest market failure
Of modern economics
I wonder what will all those people say in 30 years
That denied the facts
Of the past decades
Remember, today still is yesterdays morning,
So tomorrow will be our mourning
But you kept taking the words of
Amateurs over professionals
And new amateurs over their predecessors

All our communication seems like
An act of jugglery
Too briefly means for too short a while
Their caused confusion and denial bear fruit
We can't see the wood for the trees
And people stop to believe
Our end-of-the-pier stories

But while we should keep a sharp eye on the discussion,
We should keep a keener one on their impacts
(They are) still joining legal loopholes
Right through the backdoor
And we keep watching like congratulating a hunter on the kill
Never forget, we are motorist, consumer, creature, animal
In one person
We cannot cast our role and behave for the most convenient solution

Stop getting dressed for the part,
Stop all this aiming for the stars
Stop closing your eyes to make all change
For the worse
And you leave me back in wonder:
How did we let things get to this point?
How did we let things get to this point?
How did we let things get to this point?
How did we let things get to this point?
