earth without man

Earth without man
verse
The wind howls through desolate valleys.
The earths been scorched by fire.
The oceans have become vast deserts.
Life has all but expired.
pre chorus
In time there will be flowers and bees.
Tall trees will reach towards the sky.
There will be no men this time around.
to bring about the world's demise.
chorus
This will be earth, this will be earth.
This will be earth without man.
This will be earth, this will be earth.
This will be earth without man.
verse
It’s been a thousand years since the war.
set the whole world ablaze.
And a million more will pass before
there will be better days.
chorus
In time there will be forests of trees.
The seas will be brimming with life.
The plains will have predators and prey.
Flocks of birds will fill up the skies.
chorus
This will be earth, this will be earth.
This will be earth without man.
This will be earth, this will be earth
This will be earth without man.
bridge
there'll be no more cities of concrete and steel.
No more machines of war.
There’ll be no more bulldozers or submarines.
No more man to fear any more.

    Hi Carroll,

    Another good one, very relevant and put across extremely well.

    Too many good lines to pick out just one.

    Enjoyed that a lot,

    Well done

    Sid

  • Thanks Sid
  • Wow! Apocalyptic! A really different lyric.

    It's a personal preference, but I'd probably try for some variation to the chorus. Along the lines of:

    This will be earth, this will be earth.
    This will be earth without man.
    This good green earth, this fertile earth
    This will be earth without man.
    

    What style of music are you imagining with this Carroll?

  • I usually don’t imagine any particular music. I leave my music collaborators freedom to go with whatever they feel. Also don’t mind if they alter the lyrics as they see fit.
