lyrics

Where are your Gods when you need them most?
And what kind of world will you leave?
One that floods and burns to its innermost
Riddled with Man’s cruel disease?

Your endless desire for profit and for greed
With water more valued than gold
Only the rich could ever sate their need
The Earth is bought and controlled.

Where are your Gods, have they looked away?
Did they turned a casual blind eye
To your precious corporate priorities?
“We’re only matching demand with supply”

And the water systems that you pollute
Are lapping under your feet
With your modern-day version of King Cnut
Drowning in your own conceit

You had the resources to change it all
Instead, you sought rockets and wings
Maybe you’re still trying to find your own true God
And your place amongst legends and kings

So where are your Gods, have they looked away?
Are they showing you their disrespect
At your egotistical and selfish acts?
“We’re not fuelling the greenhouse effect”

So where are your Gods when you need them most?
And what kind of world have you left?
A world that’s rising off its knees
Or one lying barren, bereft?

Where are your Gods when you need them most?
