'Dead in the Water'


Dead in the water
There's no coming home
This world is forgotten
Past the danger zone

We warm this earth with sorrow
Cool our dread with fear
What price our tomorrow?
So many won't be here

Dead in the water
Drowned in our fate
Choosing the horror
We know it's too late

Dead in the water
Washed up as one
Humanity's daughter
Fighting destiny's son

We hurt ourselves for riches
We bleed our friends for gold
Burn the ancient bridges
Shame the honour of the old

What right have we to murder
Each life within our grasp
To brutalize and burden
Every creature in our path

Where is the life we could have had?
Where is the world we should have had?
Where is the peace in every man?
We are a stain on a ruined land...

Dead in the water
These yesterday lives
Plastic and poison
The silence of lies

Dead in the water
Too little too late
We listen to orders
And die while we wait...

We hurt ourselves for riches
We bleed our friends for gold
Burn the ancient bridges
Shame the honour of the old

What right have we to murder
Each life within our grasp
To brutalize and burden
Every creature in our path

  • I posed a question on September 10 2005 to an immensely experienced engineer of renewable energy resources...the question was as thus;

    "The oil and gas industry, should we be aware of its existence, and if so, in what way?" The answer, in a nut shell was..."Seduction and massive addiction of humanity to the wonder drug of cheap oil, and the difficulty of imagining our existence without it."

    I think in the long run, we are all responsible...to each other, The Earth and all living creatures!

  • This disaster is so immense it is hard to put into words the sadness and disbelief that we feel witnessing the photographs of what is happening. It is heartbreaking...

  • The ships that are supposed to be cleaning this toxic mess up are dead in the water! They could be doing more to clean it up more quickly. I guess there is a reason for everything and there better be a good one for this disaster!

  • What's really sad about this is that they had perfected the electric car forty years ago. People were allowed to lease them only. They loved them so the oil companies had them confiscated and crushed. People are pure evil.

  • Humans are so awesome!!11

  • And 1/3 of the Earth's oceans shall turn red and 1/3 of the its fish will die. There will be war, famine, and plague. Fire will reign down from the sky. Christians will be pursecuted and a single currency will become the world's new money. -The Bible

    Look at the world and its oceans. 2012 around the corner. Believe in Christ or coincidence your belief will be respected by man, but our souls don't answer to man for all of eternity. If I'm wrong I've lost nothing.....

  • I can't believe this is happening. I am so glad it hasn't made it to Clearwater yet. If it does I will be prepared with buckets and soap to help these poor animals.

  • A Warning to all Beings: Our Father is coming! He will restore this Earth, we will be present in The New Jerusalem. He will rid us of the spirit of greed, the spirit of hate, the spirit of ignorance, and the spirit of lies. He is coming, to lift up his loving creation! Don't give up hope in Him! We will see Terrible things! Don't give up hope in Him!
