We see it on tv we get calls on the phone By the prophets of doom they won't leave us alone The planet is dying and there's no time to spare They spend all our days sowing seeds of despair We get enough bad news to harden our hearts This fear what we feed on is what's keeping us apart To say that we doomed is just an obvious remark And it don't make you right it just keep you in the dark I don't want to live angry I don't want to live scared I don't need no more prophets crying 'brother beware' Just put some work in my hand And give me a dollar to spare And don't let me sow those seeds of despair Well this earth is a graveyard it will swallow our bones It was here long before us it will be here when we're gone And it's a vain generation that looks for a sign Don't you think we could make better use of our time Yeah, the air could be cleaner and the water could be too But what we do to each other are the worst things that we do And we can treasure our freedoms behind our locked doors But god speed the day when we're lonely no more I don't want to live angry I don't want to live scared I don't need no more prophets crying 'brother beware' Just put some work in my hand And give me a dollar to spare And don't let me sow those seeds of despair AstraLyrics
