An alarm device or system of alarm devices gives an audible or visual alarm signal about a problem or condition.
Alarm devices include:
Alarms have the capability of causing a fight-or-flight response in humans; a person under this mindset will panic and either flee the perceived danger or attempt to eliminate it, often ignoring rational thought in either case. We can characterise a person in such a state as "alarmed".
With any kind of alarm, the need exists to balance between on the one hand the danger of false alarms (called "false positives") — the signal going off in the absence of a problem — and on the other hand failing to signal an actual problem (called a "false negative"). False alarms can waste resources expensively and can even be dangerous. For example, false alarms of a fire can waste firefighter manpower, making them unavailable for a real fire, and risk injury to firefighters and others as the fire engines race to the alleged fire's location. In addition, false alarms may acclimatise people to ignore alarm signals, and thus possibly to ignore an actual emergency: Aesop's fable of The Boy Who Cried Wolf exemplifies this problem.

Genres: Comedy, Short,The futureæ¯ deserted waiting there for you and me
No past is going to stop us blowing down this road apiece
Why weæ³e come too far, too far to turn back now
We canæ° just throw it all away when something good goes wrong, oh no
Nothing has been written which says which way we have to go
Iæ¦ not looking for commitment written in stone
No everlasting promise no no
Let the river
Let the river run
Let the water
Let the water fall
Flow down off the mountain
Into the sea
Let the river run, run its course
Weæ³e stood this ground too long thereæ¯ miles to make up
Oh itæ¯ way past the time we found out if weæ®e truly good enough
Thereæ¯ no truth like the truth you dare to let yourself see
Better face it now there is nothing to fear
Everything to gain right in here
Let the river
Let the river run
Let the water
Let the water fall
Flow down off the mountain
Into the sea
Let the river run
Let the river run
Run its course
Let the river
Let the river run
Let the water
Let the water fall
Flow down off the mountain
Into the sea
Let the river run
Let the river run
Let the water fall
Let the river run
