Your rating:

The earth dies screaming

Een warme droge wind,
is het enigste dat de stilte verbreekt,
De stilte van de snelwegen tekent door het land,
Mensen liegen,ogen zijn dicht, Ze dromen niet meer,
De aarde gaat schreeuwends dood,
Als verstrooide kiezelstenen,
Staan auto's stil te wachten
Lichamen hangen droog, Ze bloedden niet meer,
De aarde gaat schreeuwends dood

De aarde gaat schreeuwend dood,
de aarde gaat schreeuwend dood,
Je land heeft je nodig, staak nu van je band,
De aarde gaat schreeuwend dood,
De aarde gaat schreeuwend dood,
Tegen de gewoontes in,
moeten we ons land verdedigen

Halfgegeten maaltijdenliggen rottends op de tafel,
Geld ligt verspreid in een magere hand,
Het luik naar beneden, banken ontvangen niet meer,
de aarde gaat schreeuwend dood

The Earth Dies Screaming

A warm dry wind is all that breaks the silence,
The highways quiet scars across the land.
People lie, eyes closed, no longer dreaming,
The earth dies screaming.

The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Your country needs you, 
Lets strike up the band.

The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Despite all odds 
We must defend our land.

Like scattered pebbles, cars lie silent waiting,
Oilless engines seized by dirt and sand.
Bodies hanging limp, no longer bleeding,
The earth dies screaming.

The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Your country needs you, 
Lets strike up the band.

The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Despite all odds 
We must defend our land.

Half eaten meals lie rotting on the tables,
Money clutched within a boney hand.
Shutters down, the banks are not receiving,
The earth dies screaming.

The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Your country needs you, 
Lets strike up the band.

The earth dies screaming
The earth dies screaming
Despite all odds 
We must defend our land.
