"To Keep The World We Know" lyrics

Haze hangs over hills
Bright in the morning breeze
It's warm in the endless sunshine
Not so good to breathe

Smoke of a thousand fires
Filling up the sky
All around the great wide world -
Forecast: warm and dry

Hills of California
Romania and France
Algeria, Australia
Siberia's expanse

The countryside of Greece and Spain
The Amazon the same -
From the tundra to the tropics
Our world's gone up in flames

Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey

Even up north in Iqaluit
Where there's not a tree for miles
Fire shoots out the kitchen taps
Apocalyptic style

Waters rise, grassland dries
Mother Earth, she weeps
Willful ignorance and greed
Prevail while reason sleeps

There are people who live to believe
In the good we all can make
There are people who live to believe
In how much they can take

Ashes and mudslides all around -
Is this any way to go?
Got to think past your bank account
To keep the world we know

Hey hey hey (Takvatuak silarjuak)
Hey hey hey (Tamnatuummat silarjuak)
Hey hey hey (Unatuummat silarjuak)
Hey hey hey (Taamnatuummat silarjuak)

There's a drive to live at the heart of things
Gotta sink a pipe into that spring
And let it water everything
To keep the world we know
There's a drive to live at the heart of things
Gotta sink a pipe into that spring
Let it water everything
To keep the world we know
To keep the world we know
To keep the world we know
