Red Tide |
Nature has some new plague |
To run in our streets |
History some new wrinkle |
We are doomed to repeat |
Fugitives at the bedroom door |
Lovers pause to find an open store |
Rain is burning on the forest floor |
And the red tide kisses the shore |
This is not a false alarm |
This is not a test |
Stay out of the sun |
It only burns my skin |
Sky full of poison |
And the atmosphere’s too thin |
Bless the sun, the rain no more |
River running like an open sore |
Black wind falling to the ocean floor |
And the red tide washes ashore |
THIS IS NOT A FALSE ALARM |
THIS IS NOT A TEST |
Nowhere we can fly away |
Nowhere we can rest |
The party is disrupted by |
An uninvited guest |
Deadline approaches |
For the weary land |
It used to be something |
But we let it run down in our hands |
Too late for debate, too bad to ignore |
Quiet rebellion leads to open war |
Bring a sea-change to the factory floor |
As the red tide covers the shore |
Now’s the time to turn the tide |
Now’s the time to fight |
Let us not go gently |
To the endless winter night |
Now’s the time to make the time |
While hope is still in sight |
Let us not go gently |
To the endless winter night |
Let us not go gently |
To the endless winter night |
THIS IS NOT A FALSE ALARM |
THIS IS NOT A TEST |
Nowhere we can fly away |
Nowhere we can rest |
The party is disrupted by |
An uninvited guest |
Let us not go gently |
To the endless winter night |
Let us not go gently |
To the endless winter night |
Let us not go gently |
To the endless winter night |
And the red tide kisses the shore |
And the red tide kisses the shore |
