Lyrics

Here on Forest Green
 Everyone knows that the life is so serene
 And what's not to love
 Under the sky and the shining stars above
 Stars above
 A subterranean life
 I don't get out, don't see much daylight
 I guess the air is sweet
 Familial ghosts come and haunt me in my sleep
 In my sleep
 But I...
 Only stay here for survival
 Every day is like the one before, it seems
 On Forest Green the lights go dim
 The awful night was creeping in again
 In again
 It's something that you've known since birth
 You understand this place is cursed
 It is cursed
 And it feels like home
 It's in the landlord's smile
 The satisfied gaze of the rank and file
 We got the sea and the sand
 We got colonial days on stolen, stolen land
 Stolen land
 Farewell to Forest Green
 No more oasis in the Anthropocene
 Only flat black glass
 Under the waves and gone at, gone at last
 Gone at last
 And we...
 Only stay here for survival
 Always room for new arrivals on the scene
 On Forest Green the lights go dim
 The awful night was creeping in again
 In again
 It's something that you've known since birth
 You understand this place is cursed
 It is cursed
 But it feels like home
 Feels like home
 And I can't stay long
