We fight with hands of stone break what we can't own
We burn the fields we scar the skies
Chasing power in disguise
We turn on one another blinded by the fire
While the ground beneath us cracks drowning in desire
We rage against the mirror afraid of what we see
But we can't outrun the fury of the land and the sea
Can't you hear Mother's cry with every tear we deny?
The rivers bleed the forests die
Yet we keep striking reaching high
We tear her down brick by brick
But when she's gone who'll save us quick?
We fight ourselves but we're bound to fall
In the end we destroy us all
We claim the throne pretend we're kings
Forget the cost that violence brings
The oceans rise the mountains shake
But we don't see the hearts we break
Our wars they rage from shore to shore
But what's the prize we're fighting for?
We rage against the mirror afraid of what we see
But the storm is coming closer and it's bigger than we believe
Can't you hear Mother's cry with every tear we deny?
The rivers bleed the forests die
Yet we keep striking reaching high
We tear her down brick by brick
But when she's gone who'll save us quick?
We fight ourselves but we're bound to fall
In the end we destroy us all
We poison the roots we scorch the skies
Turning deaf to Mother's cries
We march in war but never see
We're breaking the soul of humanity
How long till we understand?
There's blood on our hearts and blood on our hands
Can't you hear Mother's cry with every tear we deny?
The rivers bleed the forests die
Yet we keep striking reaching high
We tear her down brick by brick
But when she's gone who'll save us quick?
We fight ourselves but we're bound to fall
In the end we destroy us all
Mother's cry...
Mother's cry...
Who will hear the last goodbye?
