Canary In The Coal Mine

You refuse to see dawn
Under light so strong
A battle uphill
You refuse to move on, to move on, to move on, to move on

So trying, how fitting
That we can’t look away

Long walk, deplete
Salting the Earth beneath our feet
Part and parcel left to fend
We watch the cycle come again
Slow down, and take a look around
Slow down

So trying, how fitting
That we can’t look away

Long walk, to repeat forevermore
Silence as we see what we’ve displayed
Jaded bones come knocking at our door
Silence as we blink and we fade
Slow down, and take a look around
Slow dance for eternity
Slow down, and take a look around
Slow down, slow down

You refuse to see dawn
Under light so strong
A battle uphill
You refuse to move on, to move on, to move on, to move on

Remind me it’s working
Who’s really in the way?
So trying, how fitting
That we can’t look away
