*I DONT OWN THIS, RISE AGAINST DOES*
1 of 13 of rise againsts new album
lyrics:
When our rivers run dry and our crops cease to grow
When our summers grow longer and winters won’t snow
From the banks of the ocean and the ice in the hills
To the fight in the desert where progress stands still
When we’ve lost our will
That’s how we’ll know
This is not a test, oh no
This is cardiac arrest
Of a world too proud to admit our mistakes
We’re crashing into the ground as we all fall from grace
When the air that we breathe becomes air that we choke
When the marsh fever spreads from the swamps to our homes
When your home on the range has been torn down and paved
And the buffalo roam to a slaughterhouse grave
What more will it take
For us to know
This is not a test, oh no
This is cardiac arrest
Of a world too proud to admit our mistakes
Kissing the ground as we all fall from grace
This is a chance to set things straight
To bend or break the rules back into place
There is no middle ground, no compromise
We’ve drawn the line
With perfect aim, we stand back and throw
Glass windows break and it’s all about to blow
Lights go out as we pass the torch again
In hope that is stays lit
Neutrality means that you don’t really care
Cuz the struggle goes on even when you’re not there
Blind and unaware
That’s how we’ll know
This is not a test, oh no
This is cardiac arrest
Of a world too proud to admit our mistakes
We’re crashing into the ground as we all, yeah we all, all fall from grace.

The amount of water …
The amount of water we have(frozen or not) will never change. Water simply will not revert to its original form( H2 + O) from the rise in temperature. Evaporation, which your probably thinking is just the gaseous form of H2O. Simply said, that much water in the sky wouldn’t be possible, it’d rain.

No.
Global warming …
No.
Global warming does not mean that water is drying up. Temperatures are rising, meaning the glaciers will melt, creating more water. That massive amount of water will cycle into the ocean and raise ocean levels, creating massive climate change.
Global warming has NOTHING to do with water drying up. Your two cents are Canadian pennies, my friend.

I also agree, but I also guess I’m being hypocrytical, because I occasionally get into internet arguments.

That actually makes …
That actually makes a lot of sense. I never thought of it like that. But, we should still try to keep emisions low. We don’t want it any hotter than it has to be. But I still think that you have a very good point.

My two cents on …
My two cents on global warming are there are flaws with it.. Such as.. Global warming dries up the water, right? Well.. Aren’t the glaciars melting because of global warming? Wouldn’t that mean MORE water?
.. Ahem. Now. Main reason for commenting, this song is amazing! Second-favorite of theirs on Appeal to Reason, topped only by Savior. Love Rise Against.

that´s great than tell me what have you done in the last 24 hours to help our world ?
Have you convinced the POTUS to stop the polution ?
If you have done this you would be my hero but I think you didn´t do this
I only accepted that I ,as a normal citizen , can´t change the situation…
The way the humans are acting are just stupid we sit on a tree and cut him off while we´re sitting on it without thinking what will happen when the tree is down…

It´s hopeless!
Bands like RA or people like Al Gore try to show the world what the humanity is destroying I don´t know what people are thinking when they see for example that watch?v=pmoB2svMld8 but guys I resignated and accepted that the most people on our planet want to ignore that whole stuff so don´t criticize RA if they start playing what everyone want to hear
