Terra Firma - The Enid

The rocks speak a history

Layering life, layering life-forms

The deep realm of energy

Becoming itself

Behaving itself

Boring through the earth

A reflection of sound hits

The rocks and stones

Exploring through the earth

Fell it, fell it, feel it

As you start to fall

We kill it, we drilled it

Like the atmosphere

Getting hot in here

It’s our world

It’s a shame we killed it dead

Boring through the earth

Despite the fact that it’s

Just made of stone

Exploring through the earth

Now they’re sucking the heart of it

And you’re picking the bones

We drill it, we kill it…

…In the name of the people

In the name of the people all over the world

For the sake of the people

For the sake of the people’s name

In te name of the whole wide world

In te face of the whole wide world

In the place of the face of the grape and grain

In the case of fame

In the place of people’s name

On the tracks of a fast and dangerous train

Everything is exactly the same

The planet is turning round

For the sake of fame

For the sake of the people
