[Verse 1]

Seaweeds like emerald veins

She sleeps beneath the breaking weight

A silent dying ocean's slow defeat

[Pre-Chorus]

The floods will rise and take us all

[Verse 2]

An end to all this quarrel

A final grace to rid her grief

Oh, Mother, show no mercy for me

[Chorus]

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

[Verse 3]

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!)

[Pre-Chorus]

The rivers to rise again

[Chorus]

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

[Bridge]

I am your brother's keeper

I am your brother's keeper

An eye for an eye

Until everyone's blind

I'm sick of it

I'm sick of the blood

I'm sick of it

[Outro]

Don't you want something real?

Don't you want something real?
