“Yesterday” - Original Song by Athena
Copyright © 2025 Athena

[Intro]
No one knows why the world fell.
But it was obvious, we just weren’t paying attention.

[Instrumental]

[Verse 1]
People say the world went to shit, the day the virus hit.
But that’s just it, they’re wrong though.
I’d know I was there, in the place we call before.

[pre chorus]
Money, drugs and candy stores.
Pointless sex, and Snapchat scores.
Politics, Netflix, 9 to fives, & try get rich.
All this fucking pointless shit, for how good we had it.

[Chorus]
99% of the world is dead.
We tried to rebuild but we fight instead.
“Instead of humanity, we chose death”
We lie, deceive. We kill on sight.
No room for a heart, to survive the night.

[Verse 2]
Day by day, on empty stomachs.
Empty streets, that we rummage.
Thieves, killers, virus too.
We’re all so fucked & we’re also doomed.
Take me back to when —

[pre chorus]
Money, drugs and candy stores.
Pointless sex, and Snapchat scores.
Politics, Netflix, 9 to fives, & try get rich.
All this fucking pointless shit, for how good we had it.

[Chorus]
99% of the world is dead.
We tried to rebuild but we fight instead.
“Instead of humanity, we chose death”
We lie, deceive. We kill on sight.
No room for a heart, to survive the night.

[Verse 3]
Survive the night. That’s the goal.
Killed so much, lost my soul.
It’s okay though, so have they.
Because everyone good, died yesterday.

[Chorus]
99% of the world is dead.
We tried to rebuild but we fight instead.
“Instead of humanity, we chose death”
We lie, deceive. We kill on sight.
No room for a heart, to survive
