about

This song was written originally about Syria and the human civil war disaster unfolding, as being shown through the various media sources/

People tweet and post about how dreadful it all is, but soon move on to the next post/tweet on the latest entertainment gossip etc. Governments pay lip service but do nothing either, because, as the song bridge mentions, it's all about that black gold!

The song also asks when people 'weep' for these war torn people through media statements - does this help them at all? Or are ultimately they just statistics, passed over.

lyrics

And When They weep for you
Do you feel something?
Does it do something for you?
So many eyes unscrewed
They seeing nothing
Want to see nothing

HEY are you screaming?
We say goodbye to you
We say goodbye to you
HEY are you dying?
We wave goodbye to you
We wave goodbye

Statistic that you are
What is your number?
Are you a number?
And Fate she played her card
Child you went under
You fell right under the machine

Hey are you screaming?
We say goodbye to you
We say goodbye to you
HEY are you dying?
We wave goodbye to you
We wave goodbye to you

Black gold in the ground
Makes you valuable, makes you so valuable
Images flash round
circle the world
circle the world.

Turning Off
Switching Out
Closing Down
Turning Around
Goodbye to you

Hey are you screaming?
We say goodbye to you
We say goodbye to you
HEY are you dying?
We wave goodbye to you
We wave goodbye
