about

A song that thinks about the fragility of the world on which we depend.

lyrics

The ice is melting
The rivers are rising
Summer and winter
Are changing places

People are frightened
Politics confounded
Business is gleeful
There's money to be made

The trees are falling
As land is cleared
The seas are full of
Our plastic waste

Creatures are dying
Soon to be extinct
Plant life is dying
We're killing the Earth

Who will pay
The price of our contentment
Who will pay
The price of our greed
Who will pay
The price of our blindness
Not me or you

The Earth is waiting
Patient in its suffering
For the human race
To wake and to act

Future generations
Will judge our humanity
Based on the world
that they inherit

Are you a citizen of the Earth
Are you prepared to fight for the right
Of those who will come in the future
To live in peace and security

Who will pay
The price of our contentment
Who will pay
The price of our greed
Who will pay
The price of our blindness
Not me or you
