about

Time is ticking. The Doomsday Clock represents the hypothetical global catastrophe as "midnight" and the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists' opinion on how close the world is to a global catastrophe as a number of "minutes" to midnight. The Bulletin's Science and Security Board also monitors new developments in the life sciences and technology that could inflict irrevocable harm to humanity.

One Minute To Midnight
Words and Music: Carolyn-Fe Trinidad & Jean-Francois Hamel
©August 1, 2018, Montreal, Canada

When misery loves company, take their stance unconsciously
Afraid of shining through, fear what one can do
Sweeping chains of dread, things are left unsaid, no regards…
For hands that bled
Lying coast to coast, manning military posts
You gotta stop…It’s a minute to midnight

Chorus
Your powers schemed beyond a measure
Life without a single displeasure
High on your hog, you’re bowing down to your demagogue
Your ugly realisticity brings you to your hypocrisy
A hierarchy of frivolity, go to hell and screw it

Your gaze is dull, you’re mind’s a haze, you’re labeled as a castaway
Push on through with no excuse, going on despite the news
Fighting waves that burn, aching hearts that want a small return…
Open wounds that hide in view, never mind the pain
You can’t stop…It’s a minute to midnight

Chorus

Stay inside don’t be surprise, there’s nothing you can do to hide
Your money’s there to keep your spirit in
Keep you lines and learn, stay your bliss and false concerns, look away…
You close your eyes choose to be, impaled in your mediocrity
You gotta stop…It’s a minute to midnight
