about

There is no planet B.

lyrics

Ancient drums are 
Pounding, sounding an alarm
Poison in the soil 
Festering in forests and farms
Invisible ills ooze into our bones
A sweet child smiles
While decay claims her home

The earth turns
The sky burns
Ashes block the sun
The ice melts
The seas swell
Threatening everyone

Hearts are dark
Wildfires light the night
We choke on smoke
Eyes aching and blind
In this deadly dream
A hand muffles our mouth
Running as we scream
But there's no way out

The earth turns
The sky burns
Ashes block the sun
The ice melts
The seas swell
Threatening everyone

A child drops a seed
deep into the earth
A child tries to hea
everything we've hurt

Weather wanders
A rude intruder who is lost
Storms grow stronger\
With catastrophic cost
Are we listening now
While disasters rise
How can we allow
What we see with our own eyes

The earth turns
The sky burns
Ashes block the sun
The ice melts
The seas swell
Threatening everyone
