This song is about the condition of our earth and how to become aware it's 1 to 12. It has a Latin touch, but also feels modern

Lyrics:
The Clock (c) HWBerkhout 2018/ 2019
I believed in politics
It made all work well
I listened to government
but their lies are packed so swell

I never listen to people
living in great wealth
They won't care for our environment
At least, that's how I felt

I trusted people
who know the state of our earth
But their promise to fight pollution
Is now covered in dirt

Many politicians speak words
that makes me sad
Why believe the United Nations?
While their lack of actions feel so bad

Chorus
No, don't wait until tomorrow
To see who saw the light
All words sound so hollow
And we can't sleep during the night

No, don't wait until tomorrow
But start doing what we must
If you feel your head's blown
keep faith in what you trust
like me

I like to listen to people
Who are able to give us hope
Let's start by join their movement
So we can do what others won't

No, don't wait until tomorrow
To see who saw the Light
Of course there will be sorrow
But in the end we win this fight

No don't wait until tomorrow
Just think of what to achieve
Let words don't sound hollow
and keep strong in that believe

No, don't wait until tomorrow
but join those who try
Those words will gain the power
where politicians stop to lie

Getting stronger by the hour
brings nature back on it's feet
So listen and shout it out loud
Indifference we'll beat!

'cause listen, listen and hear, the clock ticks...

The Clock

I compose songs, write lyrics and sing most of them. I don't have  'one'  style. It depends on my mood or on certain issues that are going on in our world. AND some listeners can even tell which songs are genuine 'Birchwood-songs' (!)
