Escarpment Blues 歌词

If they blow a hole in my backyard Everyone is gonna run away The creeks won't flow to the Great Lake below Will the water in the wells still be ok? We'll need to build some new apartments And I know we're gonna have to fix the roads But if we blow a hole in the escarpment The wild ones won't have anywhere to go If they blow a hole in the backbone The one that runs cross the muscles of the land We might get a load of stone for the road But I don't know how much longer we can stand We'll keep driving on the Blind Line If we don't know where we want to go Even knowledge that's sound can get watered down Truth can get sucked out the car window We're two-thirds water What do we really need? But sun, showers, soil and seed We're two-thirds water The aquifers provide Deep down in the rock There's a pearl inside If they blow a hole in the backbone The one that runs across the muscles of the land We might get a load of stone for the road But I don't know how much longer we can stand.
