Tear it down

The situation isn’t what it was

and it’s never gonna be it again

cuz we got nothing prepared for what is coming up

when the dollar is the focus of men, and you know

all the solutions we don’t talk about

cause we’d rather talk about ourselves right now

and if WE are what’s killing US

we take the form of the storm up ahead, now follow me

I’ve seen the water rising,

it’s rising all around

and I’ve seen those roots, they’re ripping

and they rip out from the ground

and I’ve seen this world is changing

and it’s right in front of our face there’s something happening here,

in this little human race

CHORUS:

it’s coming coming coming on down,
down the waters literally rise now

it’s coming and it’s coming on down, down

and the (heat) index rise every time around

it’s coming, it’s coming on down, down

and we can tear every little thing down

and we will, just look around

and you can watch us tear it down


the situation’s coming down to this:
what matters to us all in the end? And you know

total de- struction is on the horizon, if you are

standing on the out looking in.

and our congress and president never ever mention it,

can’t even figure out same sex marriages-

while we kill each other every day,

and while we kill our earth in every way,
t’s coming down.

We’ve got this love inside us, and we’ve got this hatred too

We’ve got this battle raging,

and we’ve let the soldiers loose

We sit and watch and wonder

possible outcomes

will what we NEED deep inside

become what we WANT before...


it’s coming coming coming on down, down

the waters literally rise now

it’s coming and it’s coming on down, down

and the (heat) index rise every time around

it’s coming, it’s coming on down, down

and we can tear every little thing down

and we will, just look around

and you can watch us tear it down

down, down now

tear it right down to the ground

we gonna tear it down, down, down now

tear it right down to the ground
