Seaweeds like emerald veins she sleeps beneath the 
breaking weight 
A silent dying ocean's slow defeat 
The floods will rise and take us all 

An end to all this quarrel 
A final grace to rid her grief 
Oh, Mother show no mercy for me

Wash the stains away 
Come unto me again 
Open yourself beneath us all (swallow) 
Purge the soil 
Burn the surface 
Erase 
Erase 
Erase the past again

Oh, she will sleep like a breathing fire's kiss upon 
you 
Oh, my darling dear walk carefully 
Perhaps she'll still be there? (Wake up!) 
The rivers to rise again 

Wash the stains away 
Come unto me again 
Open yourself beneath us all (swallow) 
Purge the soil 
Burn the surface 
Erase 
Erase 
Erase the past again
