Scorched Earth

[Verse] Sky's on fire air tastes like regret Fields once green now brown and dead Sweat drips down faces lifeless dread Breathing heat despair spreads [Verse 2] Rivers dry up fish turned skeletal Sun a hammer smashing skulls City streets melt asphalt puddles Concrete jungles crumble tumble [Chorus] Scorched Earth we're falling apart Planet's heart beating no more Rising flames tearing us down From ashes we scream no sound [Bridge] Ice caps melting oceans rise Thick smoke choking blue skies Sludge replaces clear streams Dreams shatter into broken beams [Verse 3] Forest fires glow in the night Wildlife running no safe flight Cyclones come crush dreams Man-made monster relentless schemes [Verse 4] Desperate for breath bitter truth Seeking hope in hearts of youth Guitar screams our last plea From this furnace set us free
