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