When our rivers run dry and our crops cease to grow
|
|
And when our summers grow longer and winters won't snow
|
|
From the banks of the ocean and the ice in the hills
|
|
To the fight in the desert where progress stands still
|
|
When we've lost our will
|
|
|
|
That's how we'll know
|
|
This is not a test, oh no
|
|
This is cardiac arrest
|
|
Of a world too proud to admit our mistakes
|
|
We're crashing into the ground as we all fall from grace
|
|
|
|
When the air that we breathe becomes air that we choke
|
|
When the marsh fever spreads from the swamps to our homes
|
|
When your home on the range has been torn down and paved and
|
|
The buffalo roam to a slaughterhouse grave
|
|
What more will it take
|
|
|
|
For us to know
|
|
This is not a test, oh no
|
|
This is cardiac arrest
|
|
Of a world too proud to admit our mistakes
|
|
Kissing the ground as we all fall from grace
|
|
|
|
This is a chance to set things straight
|
|
To bend or break the rules back into place
|
|
There is no middle ground, no compromise, we've drawn the line
|
|
With perfect aim, we stand back and throw
|
|
Glass windows break and its all about to blow
|
|
Lights go out as we pass the torch again
|
|
In hope that it stays lit
|
|
|
|
Neutrality means that you don't really care
|
|
Cause the struggle goes on even when you're not there
|
|
Blind and unaware...
|
|
|
|
That's how we'll know
|
|
This is not a test, oh no
|
|
This is cardiac arrest
|
|
Of a world too proud to admit our mistakes
|
|
We're crashing into the ground as we all, yeah we all, all fall from grace
|
