A song from our album 'Wayward Songs' 'Dead in the Water' Dead in the water There's no coming home This world is forgotten Past the danger zone We warm this earth with sorrow Cool our dread with fear What price our tomorrow? So many won't be here Dead in the water Drowned in our fate Choosing the horror We know it's too late Dead in the water Washed up as one Humanity's daughter Fighting destiny's son We hurt ourselves for riches We bleed our friends for gold Burn the ancient bridges Shame the honour of the old What right have we to murder Each life within our grasp To brutalize and burden Every creature in our path Where is the life we could have had? Where is the world we should have had? Where is the peace in every man? We are a stain on a ruined land... Dead in the water These yesterday lives Plastic and poison The silence of lies Dead in the water Too little too late We listen to orders And die while we wait... We hurt ourselves for riches We bleed our friends for gold Burn the ancient bridges Shame the honour of the old What right have we to murder Each life within our grasp To brutalize and burden Every creature in our path © Maria Daines/Paul Killington 2009 https://www.maria-daines.com https://www.facebook.com/MariaDainesBand/ Thanks to Zach Reiner @Unsplash.com for the great photograph #NoPlanetB #SaveThePlanet #ClimateChange
