Artist's Notes

This pseudo-psychedelic rock song was originally inspired by environmental themes around climate change, forest fires & other natural disasters.

Lyrics

Wake up in the mornin'

look out the window

hopin' for better...

but what I see

is more of the same...

all over again..

and again...

 

Still, no rain

 

and a whole lot of pain

 

Still, no rain

 

They bring out the fire brigade

building burnin'

people screamin'

people tryin' to help

people runnin' away...

fear...

anxiety...

stress..

and the pain...

 

So many days...

no rain...

forest fires

lightning

and a whole lot of pain

 

(check it)

 

You're dry, you're high

yeah you're not breathin' anymore

you cry, you'll die

but you won't be grievin' anymore

 

(that's right)

 

So stop pretendin' it's ok

to watch the suffering, the pain

it's more a pain to just admit

the pain is really just a pain

 

So you'll be watchin'

from your living room

the pain can entertain

and let the fires burn away

as long as you don't feel a thing

 

Until the wind that blows the fire

knows you're gonna have to run

and you begin to change your mind

you know the cat has got your tongue

 

And then that man you called a pussy

now you wish you hadn't done

and cause the pain to see the fires

burnin' up your wall for fun

 

And now you wish you had more water

but you drank up all the rain

and now you're drowning in yor sorrow

and your paddle's up the stream

 

And you remember bein' thirsty

but when you were just a flame

but it's too late it's hit you hot

and there's no rain to drown the pain

 

(yeah)

 

But then there's something deep within me

like a mother giving birth

and I'm aware of all the dangers

I could end up in a hearse

 

But there's a light inside the life

it's who we are until the Earth

when it grows so long inside you

you can recognize the verse

 

It's always singin' in the distance

a faint voice in the dark

it's like a light without the flame

yeah you can only see the spark

 

But you can feel it, no resistance

like a beaver chewin' bark

so throw some dirt over you heads

and let it wash away your heart

 

(yeah)

 

There was a time when the Earth was lush and green

fertile, beautiful, full of life...

then came humanity and scorched the Earth

revolution, industry, progress

all made it more difficult to breathe

 

Still, no rain

 

we must protect all life

and make the Earth whole again

 

Still, no rain

 

Still, no rain
