Spark Away from Beautiful Distractions by Brian Koenigsknecht

Could we agree
We've never seen the earth this black and blue
That these days we stray
From even being human too
While some have learned
That we must keep this turning rock
Our children's home
Others yearn to see it burn
And as a stepping stone

There's no sure fire
But man we're just a spark away
There's no sure fire
But man we're just a spark away...either way

When the earth shakes or a levee breaks
The stars appear with interest
There's a stage lit bright for the satellites
Captivating all of us
So we sail on in and save the day
Then aweigh our anchored hope
And sail away in yesterday's
Newspaper boat

There's no sure fire
When the world just turns away
There's no sure fire
When everybody talks of change
There's no sure fire
When we weren't born just yesterday
There's no sure fire
When we're just a spark away
Just a shot away, just a vote away
Just a turn away, just a peace away
Either way
