Lyrics:

The Earth Wept

By Andrea Saavedra and David Gomez (FATHOM)


Roaming the earth like a shadow
Is a girl that softly weeps
She appeared, it seems, out of nowhere
Dressed in rags, long hair to her feet

Traveling through vast lands she follows
The dark map inside her heart
Warning to all who will listen
That the world will fall apart

Filled with doubt by her ranting
The people close their minds
Ardently cursing her visions
Of the end of all mankind

On and on she does wander
Though her skin has turned to ash
And her tears from water to bright blood
Crimson trails along her path

Leave this place forever, are the words she always hears
We'll live our lives as always
For the end we do not fear

Girl:
Why don't you listen?
I'm begging you
To keep the earth alive

People:
Why do you think we would listen to someone like you?
For years we have prospered living the way that we do
Your threats fall on deaf years because we are set in our ways
So be gone with you wretch or else we will see that you pay

Girl:
All that I'm asking
Is for you to change your minds
About how you are killing this world of ours

Please don't turn away
From what I'm telling you
For there is no time
It's coming soon

Fed up with her doom the townspeople cursed her with rage
They threw rocks at her body and locked her away in a cage
Deciding the best way to deal with this martyr and liar

Was to cut her tongue so she could not speak
Take her eyes so she could not cry
Cut her legs so she could not walk
Take her heart so she could not lie

Detruction:
Fools!
You've killed your mother
Now
I'll make YOU pay!

This is the end of all mankind
You get what you asked for
I'm destruction

This is the end of all your kind
You killed your savior
Now destruction

(Guitar solo)

Roaming the earth like dark shadows
Are the ghosts of all who died
Mourning aloud for the dead world
And the girl who softly cried

Forever cast in darkness
They'll roam their ravished land
Cursed for their terrible indifference
In their hands the end of man

Ghosts:
Why didn't we listen?
We should have tried
To keep the earth alive!
