Life in the greenhouse
There's something in the air
Do you feel burning in the stratosphere
This is what you get they told me
This is what you get
When you ask for too much
When you ask for too much
Oh life in the greenhouse
It doesn't get better than this
It doesn't get better than this
Oh life in the greenhouse
There's something in the air
Do you feel burning in the stratosphere
Oh life in the greenhouse
Oh life in the greenhouse
There's something in the air
Do you feel burning in the stratosphere
They told me it's my fault
That they'll clean it up in days
But it's been years and still nothing's changed
Yeah still nothing's changed
Oh life in the greenhouse
It's better you stay away
You better stay away
You better stay awake

Use Me Once

Use me once and throw me away
Watch all the bottles drift into the bay
Disregard every word that I say
Use me once but I'll be around forever
Even after 10,000 years of weather
I'll crown the pile of everything you've neglected
What will I tell my grandchildren when they ask me what I did
Will I be proud of how I stood up
And tried to change something?
Or will I cower behind my words and leave the action to someone else
Someone else
Use me once as you count dollar bills
Watching birds choke on ringpulls
Place the blame on the ones who do your dirty work
Use me once and then cast me aside
At least I can say that I tried
Now tell me you have nothing to hide
What will I tell my grandchildren when they ask me what I did?
Oh could I have done more than shift the blame and sulk
I sit surrounded by plastic and just watch it unfold
Place the blame, use me once
That's what I've been told
Place the blame, use me once
Shift the blame use me once

Nine Daughters

Glaciers melting
Seas are rising
Everybody shouts into the void
We're gonna drag you down
We're gonna drag you down
Under the salty waves, the salty waves
Warming
Pull the plug
Cooling
Watch me fall apart
We are the nine daughters
Waves that work against you
Storm sisters
We come to meet you
Weaving foam and current together sweep you under
Billowing and flecking, rising and falling we come to meet you
But you don't see this as a meeting of minds
You take and think nothing is lost, how could nothing be lost?
These are our names
These are our names
These are our names

Birds wheeling up in the sky
Peacefully branches collide
The forest works with me not against me
Gently in balance
Even the fastest brush of a knife
The human hand could unbalance its life
The forest works with me not against me
Gently in balance
Oh can't you see
The world is bigger than me
Oh can't you see
The world is bigger than you and me
Open your eyes to what we do wrong
Or everything you know and love we're gonna lose
Take me away
The world isn't big enough for your greed
The world isn't big enough for your greed
For your greed
Birds screaming, shout their goodbyes
Trees crashing out of the sky
The forest cries, falling all around me
I've come unbalanced
Oh can't you see
The world is bigger than me
