[Intro \u2013 Low Pulse, Distant Siren, Slow Drum Beat]
\nWe burned it bright.
\n(Lacking insight)
\nWe called it light.
\n(To cause a fight)
\nWe called it progress.
\n(Nevertheless)
\nWe called it right.
\n(Arrogance incite)<\/p>\n
But the sky kept score in chemistry.
\nAnd the leaves began to fall.
\n(What is meant in ignorant)
\n(… is seen in the scene)<\/p>\n
[Verse 1 \u2013 Minimal Beat, Sub Bass, Clean Guitar]
\nOld assumption \u2014 slow decay,
\nFrozen ground would fade away,
\nThousands of years, a patient leak,
\nCarbon whisper, mild and weak.<\/p>\n
But the tundra\u2019s on a fireline now,
\nBurning black beneath the plow,
\nYear-round embers in the snow,
\nAncient carbon set to go.<\/p>\n
Methane rising through the flame,
\nSome turned CO\u2082, some untamed,
\nNo one sure which share escapes,
\nNonlinear landscapes reshape.<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus \u2013 Rising Synth, Tension Build]
\nOrders of magnitude, faster than planned,
\nModels dissolve in a warming land.
\nNot hypothetical. Not someday soon.
\nFeedback ignites under a blood-red moon.<\/p>\n
[Chorus \u2013 Full Band, Driving Drums]
\nWelcome to the Ozone Zone (zone, zone, zone)
\nWhere the damage isn\u2019t carbon alone.
\nBurn the fuel, ignite the sun,
\nChemical wars in everyone\u2019s lungs.
\nSink to source, the forests groan \u2014
\nThis is the end of the Fuel Fool throne.<\/p>\n
[Verse 2 \u2013 Tight Bass Groove, Percussion]
\nCombustion never travels solo,
\nNOx and VOCs follow.
\nSunlight strikes \u2014 reactions bloom,
\nGround-level poison fills the room.<\/p>\n
Ten to forty percent decline,
\nGrowth lines breaking on the vine.
\nTwenty to seventy \u2014 forests thin,
\nPhotosynthesis wearing thin.<\/p>\n
Stomata falter, leaves decay,
\nRoots lose grip in summer\u2019s sway,
\nDrought arrives, resilience gone,
\nWildfire writes the next refrain.<\/p>\n
[Pre-Chorus \u2013 Layered Vocals]
\nCO\u2082 warms the atmosphere (fear)
\nOzone kills what holds us here (hear)
\nTwo-front war in sky and soil,
\nBiology caught in chemical spoil.<\/p>\n
[Chorus \u2013 Bigger, Heavier]
\nWelcome to the Ozone Zone (zone, zone, zone)
\nWhere the damage isn\u2019t carbon alone.
\nFuel the fire, count the gain,
\nIgnore the oxidizing rain.
\nForests flip from sink to source,
\nFeedback loops without remorse.<\/p>\n
[Bridge \u2013 Half-Time, Dark Synth Pad]
\nBiofuel halo, green disguise,
\nIncomplete burn beneath blue skies.
\nMore precursors, more decay,
\nLinear math can\u2019t map this play.<\/p>\n
You cannot balance what you don\u2019t see,
\nRadical chains in photochemistry.
\nThreshold crossed \u2014 no warning bell,
\nJust quiet shifts that tip to hell.<\/p>\n
[Breakdown \u2013 Sparse, Heartbeat Kick]
\nChildren breathe the burning air.
\nAsthma tightening everywhere.
\n(There, there, and everywhere)
\nLungs inflamed in summer heat,
\nInvisible toxin on every street.<\/p>\n
While Arctic soil begins to glow,
\nAncient vaults of carbon blow.
\nWhat we buried, what we stored,
\nReturns with compound interest scored.<\/p>\n
[Final Chorus \u2013 Anthemic, Stacked Harmonies]
\nThis is the Ozone Zone (zone, zone, zone)
\nThe age where feedback stands alone.
\nFrom permafrost to city street,
\nRunaway loops in rising heat.
\nSink to source, the forests moan \u2014
\nThe crown has fallen from the Fuel Fool throne.<\/p>\n
[Outro \u2013 Stripped Back, Echoing Vocal]
\nWe burned it bright.
\n(Lacked insight)
\nWe called it light.
\n(Light, light, light)
\nBut chemistry remembers
\nEvery night.<\/p>\n
The question isn\u2019t if it\u2019s begun \u2014
\nThe question is how fast we run.
\n(Run, run, run)<\/p>\n
