Lyrics

Auntie posts a meme and says – This is truth
Uncle hearts a rant – he thinks it's proof
Neighbors raising voices – across a fence
Each convinced they are – making sense

We build our walls, we draw our lines
Ignoring all the warning signs

Scrolling through the noise – that never ends
Echo chambers filled with – ambiguous friends
Facts are bent to fit – the chosen side
Logic takes a backseat – for a bumpy ride

Jobs are lost – trade wars rage
Markets turn another page
Tariffs climb
Supply chains break
Inflation eats
What's left of a living wage

Caps-lock on, the fury – starts to grow
Empathy replaced by – an ego show
Debates have become – shouting matches
Bridges are burned, leaving – only ashes

We build our walls, we draw our lines
Ignoring all the warning signs

Opinions hurled like darts – in the dark
Missing every time, but – leaving marks
In this storm of voices – none are heard
Each convinced theirs is – the final word

Seas rise, forests burn
Lessons we haven't learned
Heatwaves surge
Ice caps melting
Everywhere
Solutions blocked at every turn

We build our walls
We draw our lines
And quickly we are
Running out of time
