Planet Earth - Acoustic

Listen to the hymn within
The wind, and rain
The breath is shallow and it's short
They sway, the trees sway
And like a whisper in the dark
Dawn breaks, wolves scream
The people born within this
Sacred place, we dig graves
The ocean's growing thick
Underwater, muffled screams
I'm dying to hear your voice
But it's drowned out by the sea

What are we waiting for?
Our only chance is now
To save what we have left
What are we waiting for?
Our only chance is now
To save what we have left
Of our mother we call home

We sit inside a darkened church
And pray, expectations
Our earth chokes, spitting currency
She bleeds, she bleeds
It's good for the economy
They say, they say
But is it worth the price we'll pay
Someday, someday?
The ocean's growing thick
Underwater, muffled screams
I'm dying to hear your voice
But it's drowned out by the sea

This machine, it breathes
This machine, it breathes
This Earth, it bleeds
On our hands, on our knees

What are we waiting for?
Our only chance is now
To save what we have left
What are we waiting for?
Our only chance is now
To save what we have left
Of our mother we call home
