Intro (Gitarrenriff – trocken, hart, nur Schlagzeug und SG-Riff)
"Too hot... too dry...
Feel the fire...
Straight into the heat!"
Verse 1
It ain't easy.
It's getting hard.
Harder than it's ever been.
This year's a killer.
Even in the dead of night.
No relief.
No cooling down.
(Guitar solo)
Chorus
Straight into the heat!
Straight into the flame!
Like an oven that never shuts down.
Heat keeps rolling in waves.
No rain.
No water in sight.
Everything... is dying.
(Guitar solo)
Verse 2
Trees are turning brown.
Leaves are falling in July.
Fields are cracking open.
Dust is all we breathe.
People... animals...
Every living thing...
Fighting just to stay alive.
Bridge
Streams run dry.
Rivers disappear.
The springs stop flowing.
Groundwater fades away.
The worst drought...
The worst heat...
I've seen in fifty years.
And every damn year...
It gets worse!
(Gitarrensolo)
Final Chorus
Straight into the heat!
Straight into the flame!
No way back!
No one left to blame!
No rain!
No mercy from the sky!
Everything... is dying!
(Guitar solo)
Outro
The sky is burning...
The earth is cracked...
You can't stop...
What won't turn back...
Straight into the heat!
Straight into the heat!
Straight into the heat!
(Die Band hält den letzten Akkord, Angus-artiges Gitarrenfeedback, dann Schluss.)
