Description
This song uses two separate themes, global warming and heart break, as metaphors for each other. The lyrics lament the lack of connection between two people as a result of their fear of love. The end of the world is not far off, why should we deny ourselves love?
Lyrics
Carbon By Havilah Rand Copywrite 2009 There’s a deep dark ocean There’s a big blue sky You can dive down under But baby I wanted to fly So many people on the street So much carbon in the air You’re the only thing that I see When you say good bye good bye good bye There’s a voice in my head There’s a demon in my heart I know you don’t wanna go there So we let it fall apart So many people on the street That sun’s shinin way too bright I want to kick down all of those doors But baby I’m too tired to fight verse (Chorus) Like a cavern neath the stone Fill the space up all alone Then leave me flooded in the darkness I didn’t mean to startle you Now we’re howlin to the moon Its silly and its tragic The way we dance around Lookin over our shoulder Staring at the ground When there all this love to make The silence just feels fake We have fifty years or less Before we all sink in to darkness (Chorus) Like a cavern neath the stone Fill the space up all alone Then leave me flooded in the darkness I didn’t mean to startle you Now we’re howlin to the moon
