"Dying Earth Syndrome" - lyrics by Willi Paul, Planetshifter.com Media

heaven
pristine
profits
oil spill
drought
toxics
half-empty
defeated
dying
gone
to hell

* * * * * * *

Earth - once holy land
a garden, Mother
now a genetically modified organism

Nature is the war for resources
trapped in sinking ship?

could I fail her now?

I am being pulled apart
by dreams of hope and
bastardized realities

my spiritual health was tightly bundled
with Nature laws and scenic serenities

swivel men and their banks
twisting their capital noose
around and around my spirit

are we falling together?

* * *
