about

The Sky Will Climb is a reaction to the climate crisis. We may be damaging nature in the short run, but in the long run we are only destroying ourselves. Nature will survive and thrive long after we are gone.

Originally inspired by my friend Skye - who is an avid rock climber.

lyrics

Blurred by the rain, like the distant headlights of a train
Ignore the warning signs, moving on with our comfortable lives
Hoping tragedy is well beyond what we will see

I won't beg for you to answer the calling
I don't believe the sky is falling

The sky is climbing
The world is fighting
There's no denying
It's not surprising
As the waters rise and the cities fry
We will have our time
Then the sky will climb

It's already in motion, like a drop in a growing ocean
Small as it seems, we need to awake from this selfish dream
We may love her to death, but she will cause our final breath

I won't beg for you to answer the calling
I don't believe the sky is falling

The sky is climbing
The world is fighting
There's no denying
It's not surprising
As the waters rise and the cities fry
We will have our time
Then the sky will climb

See the coming storms
Stay safe and warm, safe and warm
Perhaps they'll go away?
Just not today, no, not today

I won't beg for you to answer the calling
I don't believe the sky is falling

The sky is climbing
The world is fighting
There's no denying
It's not surprising
As the waters rise and the cities fry
We will have our time

The sky is climbing
The world is fighting
There's no denying
It's not surprising
As the waters rise and the cities fry
We will have our time
Then the sky will climb
