Apology to nature

[Ebony]

When the sun sets sail
and the moon dives deep.
When friends start to bail
and mothers weep.

When dams don't hold the waters
and wars are raging on.
When we lose our brothers
and all our hope is gone.

That's when we realize
that we were the issue,
were never that wise
should not have cut that, that grew.

But now it's too late
for an apology to nature.
So this is our fate,
the consequence of our behavior.
