The light is fading out so slowly 

It's hard to even notice 

But this drought is only the beginning 

Moving forward pushing aside 

The subtle warnings we chose to deny 

Seem so far away now 

But if we could go back 

Would we change it? 

Or just stay on the same path 

Hoping to avoid this total collapse 



But now there's no going back 

You sold us out 

You thought it would be better this way 

But now you're drowning in doubt 

So drive the nails in deep 

As we act on your demand 

Just hope that you can sleep 

With our blood on your hands 



It's burning faster now 

It's only moments from stalling 

And the devout have slowly stepped back 

Moving backward pulling inside 

The blaring alarms we chose to deny 

Seem too close to hear now 

But if we could go back 

Would we change it? 

Or just stay on the same path 

Hoping to avoid this total collapse
