[Verse 1]
Seaweeds like emerald veins
She sleeps beneath the breaking weight
A silent dying ocean's slow defeat
[Pre-Chorus]
The floods will rise and take us all
[Verse 2]
An end to all this quarrel
A final grace to rid her grief
Oh, Mother, show no mercy for me
[Chorus]
Wash the stains away
Come unto me again
Open yourself beneath us all (Swallow)
Purge the soil
Burn the surface
Erase (Erase)
Erase the past again
[Verse 3]
Oh, she will sleep like a
Breathing fire's kiss upon you
Oh, my darling dear, walk carefully
Perhaps she'll still be there? (Wake up!)
[Pre-Chorus]
The rivers to rise again
[Chorus]
Wash the stains away
Come unto me again
Open yourself beneath us all (Swallow)
Purge the soil
Burn the surface
Erase (Erase)
Erase the past again
[Bridge]
I am your brother's keeper
I am your brother's keeper
An eye for an eye
Until everyone's blind
I'm sick of it
I'm sick of the blood
I'm sick of it
[Outro]
Don't you want something real?
Don't you want something real?
