A Drop in the Bucket
Water under the bridge
Out of the clear blue sky
Won't heal us now
The riverbed is dry
Needless to say
We were all desire
The future was looking bright
The future was on fire
Half the time I hate it
Half the time I lie
I don't see how we can make it
I only wish we'd try
When I'm feeling anxious
You prove all isn't lost
Not 'til the fires outflank us
If they won't try to save it
You won't let it die
Truth has no say it
Has a battle cry
Hope is a dare
A voice in the choir
A drop in the bucket
That's putting out the fire
Cripple it with greed
Bury it alive
Hope is a seed
One drop and it will thrive
That's why it leads
Back into the fire
Back into the fire
And it won't be the same
If we make it out
The ink was dry
Long before the drought
When we betrayed our nature
We betrayed ourselves
And as much as compassion saves
Disinformation sells
Clocks are ticking fast now
But you still give me pause
Salvation's in the struggle
That carries the lost cause
Grief might still engulf us
But we're more than a drop
Our future is upon us
If they won't try to save it
You won't let it die
Truth has no say
It has a battle cry
Hope is a dare
A voice in the choir
A drop in the bucket
That's putting out the fire
They'd wither it with greed
They'd bury it alive
But hope is a seed
It only needs one drop to rise
Go where it leads
Back into the fire
Back into the fire
Out of the clear blue sky
Won't heal us now
The riverbed is dry
Needless to say
We were all desire
The future was looking bright
The future was on fire
Half the time I hate it
Half the time I lie
I don't see how we can make it
I only wish we'd try
When I'm feeling anxious
You prove all isn't lost
Not 'til the fires outflank us
If they won't try to save it
You won't let it die
Truth has no say it
Has a battle cry
Hope is a dare
A voice in the choir
A drop in the bucket
That's putting out the fire
Cripple it with greed
Bury it alive
Hope is a seed
One drop and it will thrive
That's why it leads
Back into the fire
Back into the fire
And it won't be the same
If we make it out
The ink was dry
Long before the drought
When we betrayed our nature
We betrayed ourselves
And as much as compassion saves
Disinformation sells
Clocks are ticking fast now
But you still give me pause
Salvation's in the struggle
That carries the lost cause
Grief might still engulf us
But we're more than a drop
Our future is upon us
If they won't try to save it
You won't let it die
Truth has no say
It has a battle cry
Hope is a dare
A voice in the choir
A drop in the bucket
That's putting out the fire
They'd wither it with greed
They'd bury it alive
But hope is a seed
It only needs one drop to rise
Go where it leads
Back into the fire
Back into the fire
