We ran through winter snow,
April brought the showers,
And in March your winds did blow.
Content with simple pleasures,
Our future safe and sound,
Now you're taking back your treasures
For I have taken you for granted,
Closed my eyes and blindly followed,
I promise, I promise to play
I'm hoping my promise is not too
Now you're gleaming white riches
They're crashing to the sea
And your angry winds are spinning
where they're not supposed to be
And the skin that should protect us
is now rotten like old leaves
And the virus that is killing you
And I have taken you for granted,
Closed my eyes and blindly followed,
I promise, I promise to play
I'm hoping my promise is not too late
And those who shouted warnings
For conscience counts for nothing
Cheap seats pollute the at mosphere
We'd better stop and listen
If we want you to survive
For I've taken you for granted,
I closed my eyes and blindly followed,
I promise, I promise to play
