Reefs

Mary's written on the forum
The burning forest needs our voice
There won't be a future waiting for us
There's too much riding on minting coins

It's all happening at once
Hope is high like the shining sun
Diving down for his beliefs
It's all happening at once
In Newport, the aim of his life
Is to save the coral reefs
He's gonna save the coral reefs

She's standing out on the highway railing
Her signs say this can't last forever
They're shouting back, 'Then don't have a baby!'
She laughs we're meant to fix it together

It's all happening at once
His first gun in the golden fields
And says he'd die to set them free
It's all happening at once
The others tell of how he's been turned
By a bruiser and a lying thief
And by the grand and cloudy tales, they weave

It's all happening at once
Birds are flying from the north
The man was shot in disbelief
It's all happening at once
Storms are heading to Newport town
He's gonna save the coral reefs

He's gonna save the coral reefs
