Queen and the Witness
Where's the witness now if nothing's gonna change?
Watch the trees tick we'll need a smaller frame
Oh there's no need to worry, they'll just avoid the blame
The witness still has enemies who block the way
I'll tell you what
We'll count up our paper to make us feel safer
If we don't live in a gold house in the hills
There's no way we'd feel greater
But that is much later, we don't have much later
When we think of future
Will it be without nature?
It can't be our fate, might be at this rate though
People using fire should be digging their graves
But it's a hoax he said
How can you sleep at a time this red?
Come on, it's a defenceless case
But there's no way you'd ever let a white flag be raised
Cut them down so we can eat
Make it rain so the fires can deplete
Will admiring your treasure be much of a pleasure
When you're struggling to breathe?
March on, the rebels still have a long distance to go
Stay strong, the worst thing now would be to give up hope
Why aren't we devoted?
It's a motive to wake up
Stay asleep or plant a seed, it would benefit us
If it was you and me
Would you watch in disbelief?
Why don't you take a leaf?
Realise it was once letting you breathe
Doesn't it seem weird?
It does to me
How we're continually burning the same things
That are letting you breathe
There's open space, no maze, it's grey
Where's the diversity in that?
No brains, insane, how can we live
When there's no diversity in that?
Whilst you sleep, diversity weeps
But only the witness can see that
How can we win
When people don't know that they're killing diversity? (stay back)
But it's a hoax they said
How can you sleep at a time this red?
Come on, it's a defenceless case
But there's no way you'd ever let a white flag be raised
Cut them down so we can eat
Make it rain so the fires can deplete
Will admiring your treasure be much of a pleasure
When you're struggling to breathe?
March on, the rebels still have a long distance to go
Stay strong, the worst thing now would be to give up hope
Why aren't we devoted?
It's a motive to wake up
Stay asleep or plant a seed, it would benefit us
Entertain my hope, we rely on change
Entertain my hope, people need to change
Entertain my hope, we rely on change
Entertain my hope
Need something to tackle the hunger
These homes don't come in abundance
You see the anger in the thunder?
Why doesn't it make you wonder how on this earth we would survive?
Doesn't it signify the importance of nature's collective life?
She looked us dead in the eyes
So we rebel
Rebel against lies
Rebel against people that say it's not wise
Greta started a rebellion
Are you all listening?
We will make things right
We will make things right
We will make things right
We will make things right
We will make things right
Watch the trees tick we'll need a smaller frame
Oh there's no need to worry, they'll just avoid the blame
The witness still has enemies who block the way
I'll tell you what
We'll count up our paper to make us feel safer
If we don't live in a gold house in the hills
