lirik lagu meteors – the songwriters circle
there is a son
spends all his days outdoors
says that he doesn’t wanna look at the news anymore
there is a daughter
has many dreams for when she grows up
knows that the world may not last and she’ll watch it burn up
ragged and old
from the bold steps
we try to take
‘oh, they’re just kids
they’ve got nothing to miss’
nothing but sleep as we lie awake
praying that something, someone might
swoop down and help us out, might
tell us there’s nothing to worry about, right?
‘the adults will figure it out’
but they’re not
they’re just fighting
the meteors fall to the earth
and we watch the world dying
we cover our ears
the bombs we don’t want to hear
we cover our ears
their screams we don’t want to hear
they try to run
their tears mark the path the sharp noses hunt
dragging them back by their ankles
they’re forced to give up
but instead of slaughter
they get to watch what they’ll become
elbows and fists from the mouths filled with unbridled emotion
ragged and old
from the bold steps
we try to take
‘oh, they’re just kids
they’ve got nothing to miss’
nothing but sleep as we lie awake
praying that something, someone might
swoop down and help us out, might
tell us there’s nothing to worry about, right?
‘the adults will figure it out’
but they’re not
they’re just fighting
the meteors fall to the earth
and we watch the world dying
we cover our ears
the bombs we don’t want to hear
we cover our ears
their screams we don’t want to hear
and you wonder why
we want to die
all the time
there’ll be nothing left for us
sixty seconds to doomsday, drawing nearer
while we’re helpless
watching the politicians with fear
‘did you hear the news?’
has become an obsolete phrase
nothing to look forward to
simply passing the days
how long has it been since we got some good news?
how long has it been since they put themselves in our shoes?
