where do we turn to when the wind rustles silently through abandoned buildings high enough to scratch the open sky maybe they can make it bleed to feed our shrivelled earth reawaken what we've destroyed long ago in pursuit of money and fame frame the clouds hang them inside to make yourself forget it's your fault that the skies shake and cry with poisonous tears defeating the last crops we had left what will we eat when all our money has run out - the only thing green left on your blackened earth

you cannot eat money
where do we turn to when the wind rustles silently through abandoned buildings high enough to scratch the open sky maybe they can make it bleed to feed our shrivelled earth reawaken what we've destroyed long ago in pursuit of money and fame frame the clouds hang them inside to make yourself forget it's your fault that the skies shake and cry with poisonous tears defeating the last crops we had left what will we eat when all our money has run out - the only thing green left on your blackened earth
inspired by the song The Seed by Aurora
