Coal Mine

All those children
Bitter and wintered
I can't keep my hatred in
It's better at the coal mine
Come across your wet field
With mud on your dress hem
Lining up in single file
Convicted at the coal mine
Sent by the seasons
They pick Eden, you pick jail
We peak before the leaves decay
Decaying at the coal mine
Even in the springtime
And even in the desert
All your aquifers bubble and hiss
There's panic at the coal mine
All God's children
Taken by the ocean
Wrapped in cloth and lanolin
Never saw the coastline
Praying for rain
Won't happen again
Praying for rain
Won't happen again
Praying for rain
Won't happen again
Praying for rain
Won't happen again
