Water - Pain of Salvation[00:00:00]
Written by :Pain of salvation/Daniel Gildenloew/Daniel magdic[00:00:01]
I've always loved the sound of rain[00:00:32]
Touching so softly my windowpane[00:00:38]
And then the scent of dew at dawn[00:00:45]
Coming to greet me from my moist lawn[00:00:51]
Home[00:00:58]
I always took it for granted[00:01:21]
I never valued the drops I shed[00:01:28]
I failed to see the relation[00:01:35]
Between myself and world starvation[00:01:42]
Water's for the chosen[00:02:11]
But how come we expect us to be those few[00:02:18]
Me and you[00:02:26]
In this hot desolate timeglass I met this man[00:02:50]
Wearing a worn old flyer's cap[00:02:54]
Every day he had to dig 10 feet down for his daily ration of water[00:02:56]
One poor gallon[00:03:00]
And so he did[00:03:01]
Singing while doing it[00:03:02]
10 feet of sand for the thirst[00:03:03]
But he gave me half of what he was given for a day[00:03:06]
All for thirst and sanity use[00:03:10]
While we use up hundred times more[00:03:12]
What do we do with it[00:03:15]
Pipes and bathtubs sprinklers and fountains[00:03:16]
Freshwater used as a dump for oil and nuclear waste[00:03:19]
Desert people turns humble he said[00:03:22]
They know what they have[00:03:26]
But do they know what they lose when we flush[00:03:27]
And we flush[00:03:31]
And we flush[00:03:32]
But yet sadly he looked up to me[00:03:35]
Felt a need for our greed our freedom[00:03:39]
Said all he really wanted was a car and a radio[00:03:43]
He too failed to see the relation[00:03:46]
Between our lives[00:03:48]
And his starvation[00:03:51]
Water's for the chosen[00:04:13]
Water's for the few[00:04:19]
Life is for the chosen[00:04:25]
Oh but only if we believe it to be true but we do[00:04:31]
But I'm through[00:04:47]
I'm through[00:04:50]
I'm through[00:04:54]
I've always loved the sound[00:05:02]
