lyrics

Verse
the smell of asphalt
the market’s hungry
the smell of money
these empty bellies
the poor walking along hot scenes
things are falling apart 

the smell of smoke
the energy’s seized
the smells of exhaustion
it’s all happening
trying to pick up all the pieces
but it’s faster than anyone said it’d be

Chorus
this land
torn from hands
of slaughtered
aren't I just impossible?

Verse
world dressed in fever
world dressed up in fire
world dressed in sickness
world gone haywire
it won’t be long now
the carton’s expired
but it’s faster than anyone would believe
and nothing’s offering reprieve

Chorus
this land
torn from hands
of slaughtered
aren't I just impossible?

Bridge
forgive us, trees
forgive us, seas
forgive us land
I’m on my knees
I shut you out
Now I’m praying please
I remembered you, now remember me

Chorus 2x
this land
torn from hands
of slaughtered
aren't I just impossible?
