This land of rock and of mud Built upon layers of blood Where once our forefathers stood Will one day return to wild woods How many drops in the sea Of poison can there really be? How many creatures must die Before there's none more to give us red tides? This land of rock and of mud Built upon layers of blood Where once our forefathers stood Will one day return to wild woods We sing a d**h march how long Be it muskets or nuclear bombs God's on your side cause you're livin' But you can't fight for peace, that's given This land of rock and of mud Built upon layers of blood Where once our forefathers stood Will one day return to wild woods When all our time here is done And out of earth's kitchen we are run The dirt will sprout forth with new trees Such a pity can't none of us see it This land of rock and of mud Built upon layers of blood Where once our forefathers stood Will one day return to wild woods
