about

Our world’s on fire - the blaze raging in Yosemite, global warming’s rapidly approaching point of no return, incendiary human rights violations, and much, much more. It’s time we stop waiting for someone else to do something. It’s time to eat less meat and packaged foods, drive less and walk more, avoid single use plastics, vote for representatives who share these values, and encourage your friends and family to do the same.

We wrote this song as a reminder to humanity that Mother Earth is our only home and we need to take better care of her. Please share this song and use it as a way to talk with people in your life about what we can do to save our planet. All Bandcamp proceeds will go to American Red Cross’ Wildfire Relief.

lyrics

World's on fire
We don't know who lit it
House of cards
And we all livin' in it
I'm home
There's no place I'd rather be
Getting dire
And we won't admit it
We fly higher
As we sinking in it
I'm home
There's no place I'd rather be

Our world spinnin round
abusing our ground
We're losing our gravity
Too close to the sun
What will become
Is a distant memory

Our world's on fire
Where do you want to be
Misery loves company
There's no place I'd rather be

Can you imagine
Is your dream vivid
We are the famine
Why aren't you livid

Our world spinnin round
abusing our ground
We're losing our gravity
Too close to the sun
What will become
Is a distant memory

Our world's on fire
Where do you want to be
Misery loves company
There's no place I'd rather be

Even with hearts on fire
Even with dark desires
We're home
There's no place I'd rather be
