lyrics

I’m burning up
Between the sea and the shore
Gotta see to be sure
It’s obscene, to be sure

At the bottom of it all
With bad-faith good intent
if you want a wall
You’ll be first against it

Time enough to live
Time to trade
Eggs for bricks

Oh an awful mess
But still a way to live
Run while you can
I don’t think there’s time

Oh, it’s an awful wreck
Seas are rising
Ever higher
Rifle in hand
There might still be time for us

Burn the white flag
Burn the ships, don't look back
Black and red
For everyone I've ever loved

Burn the white flag
Burn back to grey ash
black and red
I love you

Ohh you,
Did you did you did you
Feel it too

Forecast is not looking too good for human life
All you
You sound so much better when we can’t hear you
Better luck next time


What kind of ‘rational free thinker’ won’t even read a book
Ohh you
Being dumb’s not wrong but you’re a dick

We’ll shift and grift and it will
Be so very civil
All you
You sound so much better when we can’t hear you
Just close my eyes

Sky may fall
Sea may rise
Sky may fall
My new life


At the top of the world
I can see my house from here
And I can see hope
And I can see more than 60 fucking years
So do what you can
Do it for each other
Our world entire
Just call your mother
Call your mother
