LYRICS
The flailing walrus is immensely powerful
and drags the bear away from the shallows towards the safety of the herd.
It slips from his grasp.
Only at the height of summer when bears are on the verge of starvation
will they risk attacking such dangerous prey.
It was a gamble that this bear took, and lost.
The stab wounds he received from the walrus are so severe
that he can barely walk.
The walruses are calm again seemingly aware
that the injured bear no longer poses a threat to them or their young.
Unable to feed this bear will not survive.
If the global climate continues to warm
and the Arctic ice melts sooner each year
it's certain that more bears will share this fate.
