Lyrics
When our ri-vers run dry and our crops cease to grow
And when our sum-mers grow lon-ger and win-ters won't sn-o-w
From the banks of the o-cean and the ice in the hills
To the fight in the de-sert where pro-gress stands still
When we've lost our will
That's how we'll kn-o-ow
This is not a test, oh no-o-o
This is car-di-ac ar-rest
Of a world too proud to ad-mit our mis-takes
We're crash-ing in-to the ground as we all fall from grace
When the air that we breathe be-comes air that we choke
When the marsh fe-ver spreads from the swamps to our ho-omes
When your home on the range has been torn down and paved and
The buff-a-lo roam to a slaugh-ter-house grave
What more will it take
For us to kn-o-o-ow
This is not a test, oh no-o-o
This is car-di-ac ar-rest
Of a world too proud to ad-mit our mis-takes
Kiss-ing the ground as we all fall from grace
This is a cha-nce to set things straight
To bend or break the rules back in-to place
There is no mid-dle ground, no com-pro-mise, we've drawn the line
With per-fect aim, we stand back and throw
Glass win-dows break and it's all a-bout to bl-ow
Lights go out as we pass the torch a-gain
In hope that it stays li-i-it
Oh-oh-oh
Neu-tra-li-ty means that you don't real-ly care
Cause the strug-gle goes on e-ven when you're not there
Blind and un-a-ware
That's how we'll kn-o-o-ow
This is not a test, oh no-o-o
This is car-di-ac ar-rest
Of a world too proud to ad-mit our mis-takes
We're cras-hing in-to the ground as we all, yeah we all, all fall from grace
