'ENTANGLED WILDLIFE' LYRICS

Entangled wildlife
Here in my mind
The adults go blind
When they grow up
They saw the signs
That's when they went blind

I start to think
that the only way to do this
is going for it 

Another day,
another day wasted
And the day,
not the only thing I wasted
Have a say
Have a say
cause they made it

Out of greed
We will not see life
swimming free
Out of greed
We will not see life
flying free

BEHIND THE SONG

June last year (2019), I had a dear friend over. While talking, he suddenly says: ‘also, I was thinking to look into the zero waste movement’. Those words were like electricity that tingled my brain. I remember that moment as if my eyes opened a bit more, just like when you see something that surprises you. From that day, I started looking into how to get rid as much as possible of plastic or unnecessary things. As the typical millennial, I enter a rabbit hole of videos about the topic. On 5th June 2019, I watch a TEDx by Lindsay Miles, ‘The non-disposable life’. She says: “The plastic we use today will outlive us.. it’s strong and it’s lightweight, it floats, it blows in the wind, it gets into the environment.. it entangles wildlife”. The last two words fill my heart with pain. I stop the video, I pick up the guitar, and a new song poured out in just 10 minutes.
