Lyrics
Woke up this morning feeling kind of bad
So many talking heads say this earth is dying
First thought I have is I'm gonna pack my bags
Take my people to a safer place
Then I think how crazy is that
Where can I go to miss the ravage that's coming
Some friends might laugh as I change my ways
Tell me I'm going through a guilty phase
I hear it's left vs right
Some say it's fiction while others believe
We're still alive but there's no harmony
And all I see in my dreams Is blood on the trees
I start slowly and drive a little less
Try to use again what I'd always thrown away
Tear down my hypocrisy despite
Empty promises politicians make
My passion grows when I head out of town
Breathe the mountain air and touch the sacred ground
Ain't no religion like a clear rushing stream
Then it all crashes down
With blood on the trees
I know you'll bring this war
It's only common sense when this rock is crying
I know we deflect the blame
It really doesn't matter anyway
Blood on the trees
We'll never stop fighting, we'll never stop fighting
Blood on the trees
