Lyrics “Dear Mother Earth”

 Song for a dying planet.

 
Dear mother Earth, dear Planet blue
whatever went so wrong with you,
Were we all really standing by,
watching as you slowly died…? 

Sure, there were some that desperately
had cried out loud, persistently:
“it’s not too late, let’s all unite,
she can be saved, let’s help… let’s fight
to rescue our beloved soil,
now poisoned with this cancerous oil,
that we’ve been spilling for so long!!”
and yet we knew it was wrong, so wrong…. 

Dear mother Earth, dear Planet blue
whatever went so wrong with you,
Were we all really standing by,
watching as you slowly died…?  

We have abused you selfishly,
exploited you, ungratefully.
We took it all, and when you cried
we could have helped, but never tried?
to rescue your beloved soil,
now poisoned with this cancerous oil,
that we’ve been spilling for so long!!”
and yet we knew it was wrong, so wrong….
