Текст песни Swallowed By The Earth - The Ocean

Tonight the earth opened up
And swallowed quite a lot
Of all the pretty things
That don′t mean anything to me (nor to you).
To anyone who likes the feel
Of cold wind blowing from the sea,
And dead leaves falling from the trees,
Whirling through the air
Like rotten vessels on their way
Warm rain kept pouring down,
The streets submersed in rising water.
And all the clouds were looking down
Upon the people seeking shelter.
They are afraid of being carried far away
To some place where they feel they don't belong.
But deep inside they feel that maybe any place,
No matter how far away, would be
Better than home.
And, no one realized the gods in heaven
Were giving all of them a reason to go.
And no one expected the water
That now reached up to their throats.
Swallowed by the earth (swallowed by the earth),
They disappear (they disappear).
Swallowed by the earth (swallowed by the earth).
So do we all.
[(repeated)]
