Wondering if it's me or the earth that's now crying in defeat
Veins starved as blood rushes to my head Grains halved when food reaches kids dying in hospital beds
Homegrown weeds grow wild out in the streets A sugar rush of love we taste in sour flavoured sweets
Leave me here to rot among the foliage the world forgot Aching from an itch now I cannot scratch the spot
All the budding pretty wild flowers now bloom from genes of hell Quench me my thirst when my roots reach down your wishing well
1st wish me a new river of love I've seen the world upside round from up above Deep down in the calm still water we'll swim and spawn Evolving out we'll build our homes upon these golden shores
Then grow me a wish from your wishing well When times are hard and it can be as hard as hell But I'll plough my fields so my kids can eat Surviving off this land with no blood on our hands Together we will never be in defeat
Finally released from the haunting spells My final wish I'll leave to my beautiful girls And with this last wish I hope and pray They'll remember the past of yesterday when the tomorrow was my wish from our present ways
