lyrics

Mother Earth
Mother Earth
I'm so sorry we have fucked you
We've managed to in just a hundred years
I apologise profusely on behalf of all the people
For sucking all the grease out of your gears

We hope you forgive us
We hope you're not too mad

We have a connection with her
That is deeper than anything we've ever known
She's living and breathing our earth
And she can't heal on her own

What on earth's with that smirk
Just be grateful you could be here
Stop freaking out
Cos things could be worse
Just try to see the brightside
In each moment of your life
Secret lessons pave the brickwork of your path

We hope you forgive us
We hope you're not too mad

We have a connection with her
That is deeper than anything we've ever known
Chaos in nature implies she's in pain
Treat her with the respect she deserves

We breathe the same air
We tread the same ground
How profound
We chose to be earthbound
Until we found our crowns
We hear the same sounds
All around
Cos we're all within this sphere
And our minds are becoming clear again
That this is not the end

Mother earth feeling hurt
Sucks our lives into the ocean
Crashing waves will save us all from self destruction
We see that you're alive
Realise it's time for your revival
Feel the light
Feel the brightness inside

We hope you forgive us
We hope you're not too mad

We have a connection with her
That is deeper than anything we've ever known
Preventative measures we surely should take
If we want to still call her our home

We have a connection with her
That is deeper than anything we've ever known
If you don't choose to help then we all die in vain
Cos we're choosing to take this fall
