Текст песни The World Is Falling - Mirah

We have spent rudderless nights
Waking up on a sail of regret
Sheets set up upon the bed
And angled to the west
Dipped our fingers in a hole
The water it was wet
Dampness inching salty curls
Around the napes of our necks
Punctured by the compass needles
Riled with certainty
The rescue boats are useless
When none of us can agree
Hear the briny call, the ocean's
Gusty gnashing of her teeth
Breaking up the pretty cubs
And taking what she needs
There's a knocking on the hull, you hear it
There's bones a-rattling under us
We set out without the smarts to fear it
With ignorance and gutless trust
Tell me once again if
Everything is as it seems
If things are getting better
What's that crashing down the street?
The wind you say, the storm that came
Remember our retreat
And darker days might come and stay
And signal our defeat
If drug up from the muck
I reel in what I hope will be
A trove of golden apples
From the golden apple tree
Flush with fertile seeds
I give them all away for free
For this our people should be known
Throughout all history
But from here we crouch and watch the plunder
Of the world we built with sweat and love
Why were you not built for wonder?
Why will you never get enough?
You say when you landed you could tell
That your conquest would go well
Though you wet yourself with fear
You were sure your god was near
The wind you say, the storm that came
And darker days might come and stay
