"Security has left you treading water." Idols and Anchors- Parkway Drive.
This song is a very strong metaphor for global warming. Security for many people is considered a job, a car, heating, running water, etc. However, these "securities" are, ultimately, what are causing the burning of fossil fuels. "Treading water" is referring to the fact that global warming is causing sea levels to rise and eventually leave peoples homes and securities quite literally underwater. This leads to the question of: can we really call ourselves good people? In a world where our "necessities" lead to our own destruction can we really consider ourselves "the future?"
