We are like weather We are like water Got someplace to go Eventually Can you keep them out? Can you fence us in? See those flowers win! Battling in the wind Tall grass swaying Symphonies in the wind Strong foundations Of this earth Highest walls The biggest fails Top security Yet so insecure Papers floating Out the building A layer of data Shredded paper In the strata Tire tracks in the mud Upsetting the dust Catching in the wind Intoxicating Industrial Squalid wastelands Face reflected Pixilated In ponds of oil Watching vivid rainbows On lifeless water Quarry the cliffs Attach the pipes Topple the boulders And rocks in water Ripples reach us Eventually Are we of this Earth? Turning into the wind The sound engulfs you Look into the distance Fighting through the tears The chalky strata Rolling on through the years Oh, if this land could talk Can you hear it in the wind? See those flowers win! Battling in the wind Strong foundations Of this earth Hear that trumpet blow Up upon the hill Coming through the din Carried in the wind Let the battle begin See those flowers win! Battling in the wind Are we of this earth?
