Story Behind the Song:



Lyrics

Less is more/even tiny little waves erode the shore/we've talked about the matter so much before/it's happening now/the oceans rise/and the sun shines in/but we love to drive/so how would we live if the rain could fall/and poison us all/we're acting kind of funny/no it's nothing at all

We're feeling numb when it's out of sight/we'd like to help/but we hardly try/we talk or talk/but we walk no lines/and meanwhile time just passes by/time just passes by

Is this the end?/we fought our way here, son/but not again/we're sending over brothers to die, my friend/and it's happening now, now, now

There's a war at home/and the poor will fight/in the streets we roam/ will we sleep tonight/if the rain could fall/and poison us all/either searching for a moment, man/or nothing at all

But we'd like to try/where do we go from here?
