Beaches make the sand white
Make the sand all romantic and shit.
Palm trees, branches, imagine them
Green light and shining with pride
Oh arrogant island being buried in humility
Like the beaches were buried in ash.
Who will remember you now?
Billows and billows see the smoke rise
Smoke stack for every sin
But did they believe that
At the center of the island was a volcano? Oh no.
Oh no
Who will remember you now?
You're dead and gone.
We came here on a plane,
Just a couple of scientists
Among the ruins and remains
This island could have been saved,
But some people just choose death
And can't see a way out
Till their bones are all that's left,
Their chests were hollowed out
But some people never know,
Too caught up in the beautiful
But their heart's a volcano.
Make the sand all romantic and shit.
Palm trees, branches, imagine them
Green light and shining with pride
Oh arrogant island being buried in humility
Like the beaches were buried in ash.
Who will remember you now?
Billows and billows see the smoke rise
Smoke stack for every sin
But did they believe that
At the center of the island was a volcano? Oh no.
Oh no
Who will remember you now?
You're dead and gone.
We came here on a plane,
Just a couple of scientists
Among the ruins and remains
This island could have been saved,
But some people just choose death
And can't see a way out
Till their bones are all that's left,
Their chests were hollowed out
But some people never know,
Too caught up in the beautiful
But their heart's a volcano.

"We came here on a plane, Just a couple of scientists, Among the ruins and remains
This island could have been saved"
Two biologists die from the descoloda virus, which is the virus that keeps the natives alive... their daughter calls Ender, who is the SPEAKER OF THE DEAD to speak on her parents behalf... I am sure there is more meaning than just that...
make the sand all romantic and shit
palm trees, branches, imagine them
green, naive, and shining with pride
oh arrogant island being buried in humility
like the beaches were buried in ash
who will remember you now
billows and billows see the smoke rise
smoke stack for every sin
but did they believe that
at the center of the island was a volcano oh no
oh no
who will remember you now
you're dead and gone
we came here on a plane
just a couple of scientists
among the ruins and remains
this island could have been saved
but some people just choose death
and can't see a way out
till their bones are all that's left
their chests were hollowed out
but some people never know,
too caught up in the beautiful
but their hearts a volcano
These are correct lyrics.
we came here on a plane,
Just a couple of scientists
Among the ruins and remains
This island could have been saved,
This is obviously referring to Jurassic Park, the evil is that the scientist cloned
the dinosaurs to show them off basically.. Trapped in the beauty.
I agree with Sparty about Pompeii
Beaches make the sand white
Make the sand all romantic and shit.
Palm trees, branches, imagine them
Green light and shining with pride
Oh arrogant island being buried in humility
Like the beaches were buried in ash.
And I also agree with Spatt
with "green light" referring to the great gatsby
In the great Gatsby jays love affair drove daisy to kill someone basically.
But some people just choose death
And can't see a way out
Till their bones are all that's left,
Their chests were hollowed out
But some people never know,
Too caught up in the beautiful
But their heart's a volcano.
this part of the song i think sums everything up basically stating a lot of people
try to kill or choose some sort of evil because they think theres no way out. Or that
they wont accept something and go for the good you know? "too caught up in the beautiful"
but they're being greedy "their hearts a volcano"
Just a couple of scientists
Among the ruins and remains
This island could have been saved"
Thats a reference to Jurassic Park, most definitely.
