The mother
Listen now as time stands still...
Do you hear it, do you feel it?! No?
Well that figures, nothing here is tranquil.
Mother earth, shes still sleeping...
But if she awoke, tsunami's would ravage us due to her weeping!
You dont have to be sad, you dont have to acknowledge this,
But we have worn out our welcome here, and you know what they say.."ignorance is bliss."
