Taylor Swift, Planet Earth needs your help and you could be the climate hero we are all waiting for! Climate Change is an important issue for our generation and generations to come. The world needs a new 'Song of Nature,' a song for the environment: a song that moves people around the globe to awareness and action. You have the talent, capacity, and resources to craft a ‘climate change super song,’ that can move people and evoke positive change. An anthem that resonates with our climate change song "Shattered Garden." Planet Earth needs a climate change anthem that is, 'epic.' https://johnsteamusic.com/f/my-open-challenge-to-taylor-swift-a-climate-change-super-song

"Taylor cares about climate disruption and the environment. In a 2020 interview, she said climate change was one of the “horrific situations that we find ourselves facing right now,” especially young people. And with her carbon credit purchases, she’s demonstrated her willingness to try out solutions. We hope she’ll consider these steps to raise the urgency of the climate issue." from 'Taylor Swift Can Be The Climate Hero We Need Now' by Joseph Romm PhD https://www.momscleanairforce.org/taylor-swift-can-be-climate-hero/

LYRICS
VERSE 1
As she wings through the hazy dawn
Can you hear her song?
Woodlands bruised and battered
A tattered branch holds her nest
Do you see the scared
Last trees of the forest
It was supposed to be evergreen
CHORUS
It’s a long way back to the garden
To a time when the air was clear
When the trails weren’t paved with silence
And the wildflowers still appeared
Do we close our eyes -- do we realize?
That hearts can be hardened
Like scattered stones
In the shattered garden
VERSE 2
As she soars the wildfire sky
Do you rub your eyes?
Feel the temperature rising
If she falls to the ground
Would you hear the sound
The last of her kind dying
Is anyone listening?
CHORUS
It’s a long way back to the garden
To a time when the air was clear
When the trails weren’t paved with silence
And the wildflowers still appeared
Do we close our eyes -- do we realize?
That hearts can be hardened
Like scattered stones
In the shattered garden
In the shattered garden
BRIDGE
The greenery always gave us peace
Now it’s concrete slabs beneath our feet
And jagged rigs grind a beat
Churning fields to rocky heaps
And all the earth is dying
CHORUS 3
It’s a long way back to the garden
To a time when the air was clear
When the trails weren’t paved with silence
And the wildflowers still appeared
Do we close our eyes -- do we realize?
It’s a long way back to the garden
To a time when the air was clear
When the trails weren’t paved with silence
And the wildflowers still appeared
Do we close our eyes -- do we realize?
That hearts can be hardened
Like scattered stones
In the shattered garden
