Obsidion - Arid Lyrics

Water, water everywhere
And not a drop to drink
Desiccated and desperate
There's fire in our sinks
Bid out the aquifers and ration supply
Locked up and carted away
While smoke fills the sky
Blood trickles forth from a dry cracked throat
Tracing lines in your esophagus
A blood filled stomach swells and groans
Pulse races as Your heart runs dry
Capillaries explode in your eyes
What A maddening state we're in
The juice of life tainted with poison
We treat the clean like a rarity
Supply demands artificial scarcity
Nine decade contracts doled out
When will you see we've been sold out?
Can't trust the taps
You don't know the origin
Lead-lined? Not mine! It's so much worse
Flint was just the tip of the iceberg
The hills burn brighter than before
Another drought, a firestorm
Waiting on a miracle
No god here, only capital
Burnt crops, livestock, and the evergreens
Rainforest thinned to a Savannah's scene
They'll let it burn down to a windswept dust bowl
We'll settle this on Fury Road
400 gallons stolen each minute
The water wars have started and they're winning
I'd like the break Brabeck's neck
Let's take this water back
The hills burn brighter than before
Another drought, a firestorm
Waiting on a miracle
There's no god here, only capital
Five years on
Five years gone
They may as well be dancing for rain
Five years on
Five years gone
They may as well be dancing for rain
Panic
Let's overthrow
Frantic
Go for their throat
We're last defense against this extortion
Let's put an end to privatized resources
Five years on
Five years gone
We may as well be dancing for rain
Five years on
Five years gone
We may as well be dancing for rain
