A second song here by The Fixx. Amazing band, btw. If you don't at least watch the video, click the first spoiler and read the lyrics. It really makes you stop and think.

Driven out by thieves

I watch them pillage the planet

Fueled by a fattening greed

Trees fall to the hatchet
Chopping against the grain

Our spirits in a vacuum

Sadly ignore the pain

End arrives, we all lose, we all lose
Hope it comes, it comes, it comes around

Driven out, holding out, day by day survival

Castaways have silent lives

With the strength to rival you
I've been driving in my car

I used to be able to walk this far

Now I turn on the light

Used to be able to sleep at night
Cooking with microwaves

Warm up my food it's not seen the soil

Plugged into my TV, yeah

I'm used to the lies they're telling me, they're telling me
I hope it comes, it comes, it comes around

Driven out, holding out, day by day survival

Castaways have silent lives

With the strength to rival
Driven out, holding out

Know this will take up my best time

Driven out, holding out

With the strength to rival you
I've been hoping that we'll find

More to life than meets the eye

Can we escape the grind

And build a life that's more worthwhile?
Be rid of this empty pride

Full of selfishness inside

Bathe in a turning tide

Until then we all hide, we all hide
I hope it comes, it comes, it comes around

Driven out, holding out, day by day survival

Castaways have silent lives

With the strength to rival
Driven out, holding out

Know this will take up my best time

Driven out, holding out

With the strength to rival you

To rival you

Push, push, push it away

How are we treating the planet now?
