about

On mountaintop removal and climate change denial.

No Cat As Nourishment

lyrics

Hang onto your idle
hands that hang low
This mountain, it will crumble
A valley below

Minor solutions
Attempt to calm our thoughts
Incremental change
Where only time is bought

A small drop of acid
Burning like fool’s gold
Quickening our blood
No chance to grow old

Lay us down on concrete
Bury us in mud
Don’t make us lose
The comfort that we sought

We all need to see
We all need to hear
We all need to find this
Fading choice we’ll lose

Feel this giant rise
We’ll all feel it coming
Sixteen Billion hearts
Will see a different morning

This unseen destroyer
Will become more clear
All these wrong decisions
Leave us less than 50 years

As our coastlines crumble
Our reservoirs dry
The storm that will awaken
The behemoth of our time

We all need to see
We all need to hear
We all need to make this
Fading choice we fear

Bring on the storm
Bring on the waves

When water fills our lungs
We’ll learn from our mistakes

We all need to see
We all need to hear
We all need to find this
Fading choice we fear

Water fills our lungs
