(Lyrics - Marco Gaminara; Music - Stefan Kutranov)
Engines roar w/ diesel fumes as they attack the trees Destroyed in minutes, ruining the growth of centuries Making pastures for their cattle, mince meat on legs Concious-less murder, bring the earth to its knees Don't they realise that we need air to breathe? Food to eat & fresh water to drink She will have her revenge when we suffocate & The stagnant pools poison those who quench their thirst.
Raping & taking all she has to offer Making barren what once was fertile.
Strip-mining lays to waste fertile farm land We reap what we sow, go ahead eat a Kruger Rand Is the ore you grind by the ton into sand? Rich enough to make the effort worthwhile Cyanide dumps make molehills out of mountains Poisoning streams, destroying spring fountains Tremors are felt throughout the reef A mineshaft filled, rockfall kills w/ no remorse.
What do we do now that she has no more to give? Do we find another rock to make stone? Why can't we save what we have before it's too late? Start now it may make a change We'll be long gone while the earth carries on But why must we leave our mark In the form of looting, scars, rape & pillage How long will she sustain life if we carry on?
Raping & taking all she has to offer Making barren what once was fertile.
