Songtext von Washed Away

Dig your ditches, build your dams Hold it back for as long as you can A leak will make this levee break And cleanse the earth of this mistake Concrete cracks and rebar rots Oceans over parking lots Grind us down, into the earth Back to the dirt that gave us birth Down, down, down, washed away Flood the earth and wash away this stain Down, down, down, washed away Flush this civilization down the drain Sprout again from the cracks Cleared the slate and taken back All your progress is erased Every monument effaced Streets and buildings turn to dust Every memory is crushed Let our flesh give rebirth When the meek inherit the earth Down, down, down, washed away
