War of Oceans - The Unguided

We put our trust

In the future and in its technology

Radioactive waste and other problems

Yet unsolved by man

What if our future selves

Are refugees on the run

Scavenging for food, chasing shelter

To hide from the sun

Control your fate

Before it’s too late

The war of oceans rages on

But not for long

And once we’re gone

The waters won’t miss our kind

Coming generations

They’ll have enough of their own problems

It’s naive to think they’ll also solve the ones

Selfishly handed down by us

Why can’t we stop ourselves

From polluting the water on which we depend

Wallace Hartley will play with his men

While we sink towards our bitter end

Nearer, my God, to Thee

That’s what they’ll sing

Can’t you hear?

Oh, yes I hear it

The war of oceans rages on

But not for long

And once we’re gone

The waters won’t miss our kind

Two hundred years of abuse

Too late for truce

And whoever wins, we will lose

Nearer, my God, to Thee

That’s what they’ll sing

Can’t you hear?

Oh, yes we all hear it

For the seven oceans

For mankind

If it’s war that it takes

We are ready to wage it

For the seven oceans

For mankind

If it’s war that it takes

We are ready to wage it

The war of oceans rages on

But not for long

And once we’re gone

The waters won’t miss our kind

Two hundred years of abuse

Too late for truce

And whoever wins, we will lose

We will lose

The war of oceans

And once we’re gone

From this world

Once we’re gone the water’s will not miss our kind
