Here's the next song, everyone! I don't own the band, song, lyrics.
, or video. Enjoy, and thanks for reading!
...........
When our rivers run dry,
And our crops cease to grow.
.......
When our summers grow longer,
And winters won't snow.
........
From the banks of the oceans,
To 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.
We'll know~ 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 you're home on the range,
Has been torn down and paved,
And the buffalo roam,
To a slaughterhouse grave.
What more will will it take,
For us to know~

This is not a test.
We'll know~ 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~.
.........
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 it's all about to blow,
Lights go out!
As we pass the torch again,
And hope that it stays lit~.
........
Whoa~ oh.
........
Neutrality means that you don't really care.
Because the struggle goes on,
Even when you're not there.
Blind, and unaware~
That's how we'll know~

This is not a test.
We'll know~ 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~!
......
