Earthmover
Carved out of stone
Earth, blood and bone
They knock the mountains down
The earth’s grating sounds
They soothe the great machines
That yearn desperately
Just to lay them down
Within her gaping mouth
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
They wander ridges high
Between the earth and sky
Like spikes upon a crown
We wear upon our brow
And want is not a need
Reserved for human beings
It’s fingers on your throat
Is pain that all things know
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
