My last song for FAWM! But I think I'm gonna keep writing anyway :)
No more screaming trees
Another killer disease
God is dead and gone
Ain't no cause for alarm
Some uplifting plea
For humanity
Outgunned and starved
Strung out on the boulevard
And when we want a break they'll let us eat cake
And when we burn it down they'll wish they never been around
A field of burning trees
A dust bowl spin
Round and round it goes
Towards you and me
Running water thin
Burning scared ground
Here it comes again
To tear us down
And when we want a break they'll let us eat cake
And when we burn it down they'll wish they never been around
A rumble in the wind
A single drop
Something grows again
Ready or not
Ready or not

Well said. "And when we want a break they'll let us eat cake / And when we burn it down they'll wish they never been around". Yup. Eff the man. Nice steady groove you set it to, too.
