Lyrics

Verse 1

Dust

Red roads

Heavy iron rattling

The engine is a dying animal

Cracking

Splitting

Seams are pulling wide

Deep green vines choking the axle

Chorus

Mother is angry

Mother is angry

Mother is angry

The ground is moving under the wheels

The ground is moving under the wheels

She wants it back

She wants it back

She wants it back

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Ay-ay-ay

Ay-ay-ay

Verse 2

Stalled

Concrete

Nature never sleeps

Roots are lifting up the pavement

Fever

Burning

The mountains find their voices

Steel is melting into the mud

Gone

Just gone

Silver turns to rust

Water rising through the floorboards

No more

No more

Wait

Everything is changing

Chorus

Mother is angry

Mother is angry

Mother is angry

The ground is moving under the wheels

The ground is moving under the wheels

She wants it back

She wants it back

She wants it back

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Ay-ay-ay

Ay-ay-ay

Bridge

They took the gold

They took the salt

They took the timber

Now she takes the air

Now she takes the heat

Now she takes the rain

The rain

The rain

The rain

Verse 3

Run

Where?

Nowhere left to hide

Sky is turning a bruised purple

Silence

Then roar

The trees are standing taller

Humanity is just a guest

Small

So small

Forgot how to listen

Now the wind is screaming the truth

Chorus

Mother is angry

Mother is angry

Mother is angry

The ground is moving under the wheels

The ground is moving under the wheels

She wants it back

She wants it back

She wants it back

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh

Oh oh oh

Ay-ay-ay

Ay-ay-ay

Outro

Return the debt

Return the debt

Return the debt

The green is coming

The green is coming

The green is coming

Final breath

The earth wins

The earth wins

The earth wins
