Chorus
River runs crimson where the forest stood
Ashes cover silence where the children played
Forgotten names carved in roots and blood
Steel and hunger selling sacred ground to fade
Post-Chorus
Oooo, oooo, nawa aye
Oooo, oooo, spirits stay
Verse 2
Monoliths of smoke devour the old sky
Roots torn for profit, prayers lost in the mud
The harvest of sorrow, the song of the dead
Our language and lifeblood washed out by the flood
Pre-Chorus
Drums pound slow in the endless night
Mothers mourning songs by firelight
Chorus
River runs crimson where the forest stood
Ashes cover silence where the children played
Forgotten names carved in roots and blood
Steel and hunger selling sacred ground to fade
Post-Chorus
Oooo, oooo, nawa aye
Oooo, oooo, spirits stay
