lyrics

You're caught in your routine
keep your head down pass the faces you don't care to meet.
You're walking every street, crossing all the bridges as the world turns.
The world turns and turns.

The Trees are my lungs
The river my blood
The Rocks are the bones of the earth.
So treat her like you would your body don't let nobody tear her apart.

You see yourself in the window as it goes down
You try and catch a glimpse of a better life
Turn away, avert your eyes.
I see the blind are leading the blind

The Trees are my lungs
The river my blood
The Rocks are the bones of the earth.
So treat her like you would your body don't let nobody tear her apart.

I can't sleep no more
the worlds here by herself
she's living with the guilt
of giving us life.
I will stay
We will stay

The Trees are my lungs
The river my blood
The Rocks are the bones of the earth.
So treat her like you would your body don't let nobody tear her apart.
