No Other Life, No Other World

Carbon in the atmosphere, poison in the soil
Islands made of plastic far from shore
Dawn of the Anthropocene, water's on the boil, we know
But still the vow's untaken

No other life, no other world
Commit to it now, commit yourself
No other life, no other world
Commit to it now, commit yourself, commit yourself

Now they want to tell us our future's in the stars
Out beyond the vastness dark and cold
Dream if you want to dream, but let the truth take hold
It's yours, take the mantle up, defender of creation

No other life, no other world
Commit to it now, commit yourself
No other life, no other world
Commit to it now, commit yourself

Past the point of prevention, with the clear eyes of hope
Observe the signs
All the emergent perfection
Can you bear the losses?
Awaken, behold
Now we know
And the work begins

Denial, distraction, make way for love in action
Ignite the chain reaction
So may it be

One planet, all human, same hopes and shared confusions
Unite in resolution
So may it be, so may it be

No other life, no other world, no other world
One planet, all human
