State Of Emergency Lyrics
We will always be
We will alwyas be
We will always be together
We may never see
We may never see
We may never see it again
Red Light!
This is an alarm stay where you are...state of emergency
This is an alarm don't go too far...state of urgency
This is not the end
We may never know
We may never know
We may never know what's ahead
If you believe it then you will see it
It's in front of you and you know it's true
From the things we hate to the love we send
What goes round comes round again
Standing on the starting line
Make a wish and make the time
It's just begun
It's just begun
It's just begun to matter
It won't be done
It won't be done
It won't be done until the time has come
We will alwyas be
We will always be together
We may never see
We may never see
We may never see it again
This is an alarm don't go too far...state of urgency
This is not the end
We may never know
We may never know what's ahead
If you believe it then you will see it
It's in front of you and you know it's true
What goes round comes round again
Standing on the starting line
Make a wish and make the time
It's just begun
It's just begun to matter
It won't be done
It won't be done
It won't be done until the time has come

For a time there it felt like every time the news came on, somewhere had been declared a state of emergency. The song deals with the paranoia and uncertainty generated from this. It also has a very positive message and promotes unity and not being oppressed by fear whether it be a false alarm or the real thing. Musically its one of the more heavy riff style tunes on the album, particularly the solo which could be accused of having hard rock influences...that fine. Genre wise, I like to think of us as a rock band before anything else."
