Mother

I'm sitting here in this metal box they call Ark Number Five
That's a little cynical, because they built that ship
Just to keep themselves alive
I'm sitting here because my genes match
And I'm about to have a rich son's child
You can't judge me for that
I just wanted to live
I just wanted to live
I just wanted to live, when all humans went wild
Mother Earth, beloved Mother Earth
Mother Earth, sweet Mother Earth
Wherever we go, we will go alone
Whatever worlds we conquer, she is gone

Aaahhh
Millions of people were on the run
Nothing to lose, hungry and a gun
The privileged who took it all
Fought against them, too big to fall
The last world war, for water and food
Nuclear weapons did what they could
Flying through the space, foreign stars in my face
We will never come back, turned the blue planet into black
I'm sitting here in this metal box they call Ark Number Five
That's a little cynical, because they built that ship
Just to keep themselves alive
But I don't care about all that now (I don't care)
Because I feel the life inside me
Which only a mother can set free
Mother Earth, beloved Mother Earth
Mother Earth, sweet Mother Earth
Wherever we go, we will go alone
Whatever worlds we conquer, she is gone

Dreaming of a life in peace and harmony
With all life in the universe
We are as we are
And destruction is our nature
But I don't care about all that now
Because I feel the life inside me
Which only a mother can set free
Mother Earth, beloved Mother Earth
Mother Earth, sweet Mother Earth
Wherever we go, we will go alone
Whatever worlds we conquer, she is gone
