Midas's touch turned everything to gold
Only water could save his children, we're told
So when water's gold what do you do
Take a sip and you're for sale too
Corporate kills and bottled life and rub salt just to hurt
Inflate irrigation and pay the farmer dirt
No murderer if the judge sees green
The victim is the killer, threw her water out to sea

We flail our arms and gasp for a cough
Smoke obscured and the flame won't stop
Our voices grow fainter with each shout
And each reply is just be loud
Privileged parents thinking in two shots
Sailing around ocean fires in a new yacht
Private jets and city fume masks
That's all your choice, your Levittown gas

Blame it on the citizens
Conserve your water, watch your carbon footprint
Watch our world slowly end
Scream and claw as the walls close in
Reaching for more hope than there's left for us
No private jets or heat, just the distrust
Plastic blood, why not just sink
The quicksand's slowing but it's paid to drink

Summer stings and winter doesn't anymore
Why is it I ruin everything I touch
We're told as children to stay careful
But there are rules we follow and others we don't as much
A modest proposal, a billion lives
Make a dollar and it's fine
Each day goes, know there's no light
Burn it down and try to breathe right

Cars piled up on a lifeless road
Can't split clouds from factory smoke
Earthquake drills for black gold faults
Eight cars and an acre of asphalt
The great frontier of ten-lane streets
Burn coal to make gold, an offering to a thief
Wait long enough; everyone's unique plan
Buy a miracle and get swindled by the businessman
