Tuesday's fire

So little word of you coming
You caught us lying down and relaxing out loud
The world reamed
For the sake of a new solution
That could fade away as quickly as it came

If I could fall asleep, would the world stay on its knees?
Despite your expert touch, there's still no hope for a new solution
Do you recall?

You left a symptomatic warning
In the guise of
Carbon clouds and a renewed sense of doubt
The world ablaze
For the sake of a new solution
That could fade away

I had a friend who live only once in a while on the way back down
From the hill where he left the fruit of his labour,
As it rolled back down
