Ryan Amador - False Alarm

All the tired leaves are falling like before
Every day, just like it’s Autumn
But it’s not at all
 
Look around, What is the season?
Remember that?
Lost it all and what’s the reason?
[That] Everyone left
 
All in all we’re feeling hopeless
Bound to our bets
What are we supposed to do now
But wait for our debt?
 
This earth is still crying
And everyone’s acting like nothing’s wrong
Our kids keep on tryin
Cause they know the battle has just begun
 
But we treat it like false alarm
We treat it like a false alarm
We treat it like
 
They’ll say that we were too divisive
And couldn’t react
Saw the water start to rise 
Too late to get back
 
Could we not take any notice
When it first got bad?
But still had kids of our own to hold it
All in their hands
 
Idly watching through the window
As the air started to bleed
Anxious all the time
I cut the noise
Right out from my screen
 
This earth is still crying
And everyone acting like nothing’s wrong
Our kids keep on tryin
Cause they know the battle has just begun
 …
But we treat it like false alarm
We treat it like a false alarm
We treat it like
 
When the Record breakers
Fire setters
Storm instigators 
Paid no attention
To the warning 
And warming  
Now the desert needs a sweater
And the rivers dried up in the rhythm of forever
the oceans upturned 
The sun sunburned 
In the shape of no return
And the clouds cloudburst 
Now the children look around to only see the curse  
lost in the cost 
of everything satisfying 
You saw it coming 
future headfirst submerged 
When the waters died of thirst
Debted and rehearsed 
Holding to the promise
Of everything good
Wish that i could tell you 
That I stored it in my nooks

I'm the arctic melting
look at my ribcage, caving
crying every river of tear  
stored in my belly is the record of the year
fever high
evil eye
either i
stay alive
or the rest of you
can simply say goodbye  
to the memories untold
in the beauty of the sky

plastic, mystic 
poet, cystic
money, artist 
climate, harvest
north pole, 
teacher
the rarest of creatures
gone

I'm the fires burning 
to rotate the learning
make you discerning
there might be a yearning
born of the hurting 
allow for a returning 
of souls unburdened 
of souls unburdened          
of souls
