Ocean and timber
Dragging them down
Ocean and timber
Don't make a sound
Beyond the joys of nurture
My children poison me (for such simple pleasures)
In this ever present torture
Why can't I make them see (the ocean's true treasure)
Why cant they all just
Why don't they all just
Why won't they all just
Listen
Its no secret
Just believe it
Listen well to the sea
Yet they still rejoice
They'll regret that choice
Listen to the ocean
There's no magic potion
For what they've set in motion
Why won't they all just listen to me?
Ocean and timber
Dragging them down
Ocean and timber
Don't make a sound
Why can't they just
Why don't they just
Why won't they just
Pay attention to the signs
Respect the planet's oceans
There's no fucking magic potion
For the end we've set in motion
All are born of the Earth
Dilute her motions
Dispute her notions
Pollute her oceans
And they'll see her worth when she's suffering
Poisoned ocean's and burning timber
Sold for a low price we can't afford
When we sell out, what is the cost
Pain with oceans and timber
As the ocean cries, we don't hear her
And as the timbers burn we fail to learn
The cost we will all pay
Oceans and timber can't cry for help
Now we've fucked ourselves
Ocean and timber
Dragging us down
Ocean and timber
Don't make a sound
