No One's There

A song of love and gratitude for all of the brave people involved in the Extinction Rebellion movement!

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY (Extinction Rebellion)

This is an emergency! 	
(This is an emergency, yeah!)  
Take your head out of the sand! 
(You gotta, you gotta, you gotta)
Take your head out, head out, head out!

We believe the Earth is worth saving
We believe the time is now
We believe every creature is precious 	
(Regeneration in every nation, dismantle the system, an act of love)
Extinction Rebellion! Extinction Rebellion! 
(Regeneration in every nation, dismantle the system, an act of love)
	
We stand shoulder to shoulder 	
(We believe … )	
(We walk in peace, we talk in peace, we welcome every part of you)	
We stand with our heads held high 	
(We believe … )	
(We walk in peace, we talk in peace, we welcome every part of you) 	
We stand, our hearts overflowing 	
(We believe … )	
(We walk in peace, we talk in peace, we welcome every part of you) 	
Extinction Rebellion! Extinction Rebellion!
	
This is an emergency! 	
(This is an emergency, yeah! This is an emergency)  
So we’re doing what we can 	
(We gotta do what we can!)  
This is an emergency! 				
(This is an emergency, yeah!)
Take your head out of the sand and 			
(You gotta, you gotta, you got, you gotta)
Come join us, come join us! 			
(Come and join us)

We’re doing it for the coral reefs, and for the polar bears
We’re doing it for the monarch butterflies, because we care
We’re doing it to protect all life, we’re doing it to save our home 	
(We walk in peace, we talk in peace, we welcome every part of you)
We’re doing it in community because no one can do this alone 	
(We walk in peace, we talk in peace, we welcome every part of you)
Alone …

We’re doing it for the koalas; we’re doing it for the bees
We’re doing it for the belugas; we’re doing it for the seas
We’re doing it for our ecosystems, to calm this crazy weather
(Our planet’s burning, we’re growing learning)
We’re doing it for our children’s children; we’re trying to make things better 
(No blaming, no shaming, to tell the truth)
Better … Burning … Burning
Tell the truth!

(sung simultaneously)	
(line 1)	Our planet’s burning, we’re growing learning 
(line 2)	No blaming, no shaming, to tell the truth
(line 3) Our planet’s burning, we’re growing learning
(lines 1-3) Regeneration in every nation, dismantle the system, an act of love (x3) 
(lines 1-3) Share our power, share our stories, share our vision, we’re many, we’re one (x3)
Extinction Rebellion! Extinction Rebellion!!!

(double chorus)
This is an emergency! 	
(This is an emergency, yeah! This is an emergency)  
So we’re doing what we can 
(We gotta do what we can!)  
This is an emergency! 	
(This is an emergency, yeah!)
Take your head out of the sand and 
(You gotta, you gotta, you got, you gotta)
Come join us, come join us! 
(Come and join us)
