The Reaper Grows Grim

[Intro]
Does your future grow dim
As the Reaper grows Grim
(Same mistake… again)

[Verse 1]
The verdict
Of the vindictive
Less perfect
More addictive

[Chorus]
Does your future grow dim
(As the Reaper grows Grim)
Is our outlook mistook
(Since chances are slim)

[Bridge]
[Synth Solo]
(Same mistake… again)
Can’t learn to listen
(Same mistake… again)
Won’t learn a lesson

[Verse 2]
The trial
Of the lifestyle
Resume to consume
Like a vacuum

[Chorus]
Does your future grow dim
(As the Reaper grows Grim)
Is our outlook mistook
(Since chances are slim)

[Bridge]
[Synth Solo]
(Same mistake… again)
Can’t learn to listen
(Same mistake… again)
Won’t learn a lesson

[Outro]
Salute! (Shoot my foot)
Same mistake (intake)

When Your Free is Dumb

[Verse 1]
I voted for a dump
In my backyard
It wasn’t very hard
When your free is dumb

[Chorus]
Will it make my grass
(Greener)
Than on the other side
Will it make my ass
(Meaner)
Donkeys on the slide

[Bridge]
The race of the racist
(How fast is the fascist)
The place of the races
(Behind two faces)

[Verse 2]
I voted for a dump
In my living room
Easy to find gloom
When your free is dumb

[Chorus]
Will it make my grass
(Greener)
Than on the other side
Will it make my ass
(Meaner)
Donkeys on the slide

[Bridge]
The race of the racist
(How fast is the fascist)
The place of the races
(Behind two faces)

[Chorus]
Will it make my grass
(Greener)
Than on the other side
Will it make my ass
(Meaner)
Donkeys on the slide

[Bridge]
The race of the racist
(How fast is the fascist)
The place of the races
(Behind two faces)

[Outro]
I voted for a dump
(’cause my free was dumb)

Reclaims chains
Once they could see
Now deaf and dumb
Happily

Victory in Reality

[Verse 1]
When you’re ahead in the race
Don’t pause to turn your face
Keep the rapid pace
The poise and the grace

When you’re ahead in the race
Don’t let it end in disgrace
(No) No about face
To the finish leave no trace

[Chorus]
Victory in reality
Is where we want to be
(Where we’re gonna be)
History in totality
In the rear-view we’ll see
(Where we use to be)

[Bridge]

Maybe just as well
(Time will tell)

[Verse 2]
When you out in the lead
Don’t pause to concede
What it is we need
Is for all to be freed

When you’re leading on the track
(No) There’s no looking back
To the top of the stack
There’s nothing that you lack

[Chorus]
Victory in reality
Is where we want to be
(Where we’re gonna be)
History in totality
In the rear-view we’ll see
(Where we use to be)

ABOUT THE SONG
What Can I Do? There are plenty of things you can do to help save the planet: stop using fossil fuels, consume less, and love more.

Love has the transformative power to save the world in numerous ways:

  1. Fostering Connection and Unity: Love brings people together, transcending boundaries of race, religion, nationality, and ideology. By fostering a sense of empathy, compassion, and understanding, love promotes unity and solidarity among diverse individuals and communities. When people come together in love, they can work collaboratively to address shared challenges and create positive change on a global scale.
  2. Promoting Peace and Harmony: Love is the antidote to hatred, conflict, and violence. By promoting forgiveness, reconciliation, and mutual respect, love can help heal deep-seated divisions and promote peace and harmony within and between societies. When individuals and nations choose love over fear and hostility, they pave the way for peaceful coexistence and cooperation.
  3. Inspiring Empathy and Altruism: Love cultivates a sense of empathy and concern for the well-being of others. When individuals act out of love, they are motivated to alleviate suffering, promote justice, and advance the common good. Love inspires acts of kindness, generosity, and selflessness, creating a ripple effect of positive change that spreads throughout communities and across borders.
  4. Protecting the Environment: Love for the natural world motivates individuals to protect and preserve the planet for future generations. When people recognize their interconnectedness with all living beings and the delicate balance of ecosystems, they are inspired to adopt sustainable lifestyles, promote conservation efforts, and advocate for environmental stewardship. Love for the Earth compels us to take action to address climate change, protect biodiversity, and ensure a healthy and sustainable future for all.
  5. Empowering Social Justice: Love is inherently egalitarian, valuing the inherent worth and dignity of every individual. When people act out of love, they are committed to promoting social justice, equality, and human rights for all. Love drives efforts to dismantle systems of oppression, combat discrimination, and create inclusive societies where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. By standing up for justice and advocating for marginalized communities, love can help create a more just and equitable world for future generations.

In summary, love has the power to save the world by fostering connection and unity, promoting peace and harmony, inspiring empathy and altruism, protecting the environment, and empowering social justice. When individuals and communities choose love as their guiding principle, they can create a world where compassion, understanding, and cooperation prevail, paving the way for a brighter and more sustainable future for all.

ABOUT THE SONG
The Book of Daniel in the Bible contains prophetic visions and stories that, in various ways, can be seen as analogies to the climate crisis and the challenges humanity faces today.

Daniel in the Lion’s Den (Daniel 6:1-28)

Daniel’s survival in the lion’s den symbolizes hope and resilience under threat. This can be seen as an analogy for those working to address climate change, as they face great odds and opposition. Just as Daniel remained steadfast, people dedicated to climate action continue their efforts against powerful industries and interests resistant to change. This story reminds us that resilience, commitment, and faith in solutions are crucial, even in the face of overwhelming adversity.

The Book of Daniel’s themes of warning, resilience, and responsibility provide powerful metaphors for the climate crisis. They encourage reflection on humanity’s role in either contributing to or averting disaster, as well as the courage needed to make meaningful changes.

The Statue

[Intro]
One of those
To strike a pose
The statue…
Could happen to you, too

[Verse 1]
Nebuchadnezzar
(How bizarre)
Far out dreams
(Radical scenes)

[Chorus]
On your own
Struck by a stone
Disintegration
Of your nation

[Bridge]
The statue…
Happening to you, too
Vulnerable to collapse
(Prolapse)

[Verse 2]
Gold and silver
(Smash and sliver)
All of our peace
(Falls to pieces)

[Chorus]
On your own
Struck by a stone
Disintegration
Of your nation

[Bridge]
The statue…
Happening to you, too
Vulnerable to collapse
(Prolapse)

[Chorus]
On your own
Struck by a stone
Disintegration
Of your nation

[Bridge]
One of those
To strike a pose
The statue…
Happening to you, too

[Outro]
Will your dreams
Pull at the seams (Seems)
Scenes

ABOUT THE SONG
The Book of Daniel in the Bible contains prophetic visions and stories that, in various ways, can be seen as analogies to the climate crisis and the challenges humanity faces today.

The Vision of the Statue (Daniel 2:31-45)

In this vision, King Nebuchadnezzar dreams of a statue with different parts made of various materials: gold, silver, bronze, iron, and clay. Each section represents a kingdom, which eventually collapses when struck by a stone. This statue’s disintegration can be likened to the breakdown of our environmental “kingdom” due to climate change. The progressive weakening of the statue, from solid gold to fragile clay, mirrors how the climate crisis weakens Earth’s systems—oceans, air, soil, and ecosystems—which, like the statue, are interconnected and vulnerable to collapse.

The Writing on the Wall

[Intro]
Belshazzar’s feast
(Overindulgence)
Mark of the beast
(Arrogance)

[Verse 1]
Embodied
By the disembodied
A warning for all
The writing’s on the wall

[Chorus]
Belshazzar’s feast
(Overindulgence)
Mark of the beast
(Arrogance)

[Bridge]
Consequences
(Of unchecked consumption)
Hindrance dance
(Man’s malfunction)

[Verse 2]
Disregarded by humanity
Man’s insanity
A warning for all
The writing’s on the wall

[Chorus]
Belshazzar’s feast
(Overindulgence)
Mark of the beast
(Arrogance)

[Bridge]
Consequences
(Of unchecked consumption)
Hindrance dance
(Man’s malfunction)

[Chorus]
Belshazzar’s feast
(Overindulgence)
Mark of the beast
(Arrogance)

[Bridge]
Consequences
(Of unchecked consumption)
Hindrance dance
(Man’s malfunction)

[Outro]
A warning for all
Written on the wall

ABOUT THE SONG
The Book of Daniel in the Bible contains prophetic visions and stories that, in various ways, can be seen as analogies to the climate crisis and the challenges humanity faces today.

The Writing on the Wall (Daniel 5:1-31)

In this story, a disembodied hand writes a warning on the wall during King Belshazzar’s feast, ultimately signaling the end of his kingdom. This is often interpreted as a warning about overindulgence and arrogance. Today, the “writing on the wall” could signify the scientific warnings and climate models predicting the consequences of unchecked consumption and environmental neglect. Like Belshazzar, who chose to ignore the warnings, humanity has often disregarded climate science and now faces consequences that threaten stability and survival.

(Of revision)

ABOUT THE SONG
The Book of Daniel in the Bible contains prophetic visions and stories that, in various ways, can be seen as analogies to the climate crisis and the challenges humanity faces today.

The Vision of the Four Beasts (Daniel 7:1-28)

Daniel’s vision of four great beasts arising from the sea represents chaotic and destructive forces, often interpreted as symbolizing oppressive empires. Similarly, climate change can be viewed as a “beast” born of unsustainable practices, industrialization, and overconsumption. Each beast could symbolize the destructive aspects of modern industry, pollution, deforestation, and the greenhouse gas emissions fueling climate disruption. The vision reminds us of humanity’s responsibility to tame these “beasts” by reshaping our relationship with nature and managing the destructive forces within our control.
