Coral's Life

Coral's life

Fate of a peaceful organism
Someway victim of its altruism
Today endangered

Most ancient ecosystem on earth
Safest place to live or to give birth
25% of known fishes live in the coral reef
It is the most diversified ecosystem on earth
Million years, it takes to grow bigger
(But) A few years to disappear

What was paradise's Now Hell!

Chorus
We must prevent your destruction
(I am - the soul - of the ocean)
Rainforest of the silent place (I'm aching)
Shelter of the Rainbow nation
(Suffering - from - your indifference)
Essential for any race (I'm dying)

Crashed … shattered
Crushed ... Ignored

Source of knowledge, food and medicine
You protect the shores
Corals provide medicines used to cure Alzheimer and Parkinson's diseases.
The Coral reef protects the shores from wave erosion
But "must-have" souvenir from paradise
Suffocating as mercury rises

What was paradise's Now Hell!

Chorus

Take the time to look at it
Part of you is part of it
(It's) not a lie, do you know it?

Something under the surface
Pray for pity, for a grace
Wave at you for a caress

See all the joy it has brought to them
For so many years

I want a rest in this Haven

Take on board for a trip under zero
Come and fly with us, just a step below

We keep on living (Paradise)
The reef is dying (Hell)

Can't you hear the Whales' cry?
The reef's heart is running dry

Chorus +

Stop your crime or I'll change…
By My tide: My Revenge!

If we repent now
Will you forgive us? Our Hell.

What Was Paradise's Now Hell

Piece by piece falling apart

(I) hope it's not too late
To save coral's fate

Damages done - Oil slicks
Cracking bones
We got to be quick

This is not a secret
I'm fed up with your lies!
Everybody knows - I'm dying!

They can buy the future
Can they stop the tide?
Simple words are sometimes right

Simple is not naive
Please forget your pride
Try to be a little wise….

Can you stop the countdown?
Put off our crown?
If you look out of your towns…

Five, four, three, two, one, ZERO!
