Earth Mother

Oh mother please forgive us
We've taken all you had to give
Claimed if as our right to live
Never thinkin' you had that right too

We can't believe you're going
Isn't your mother always there
Always the one to really care
With no limits to her giving

But we daren't turn and say stop
While we're watching the slow rot
Yet the life that we've all got depends on you
But we've taken the wrong track
And we've painted your face black
And iI's so hard to turn back from if now

But we're all to blame
But we still keep destroying
Never the time to stand and view
All of the greed that's killing you
Who have held us through the ages
