lyrics

PLUCK EACH STALK, EVERY NEURON FROM THIS MUTINOUS EARTH
WE KNOW HER SOUL LIES BENEATH HER CRUST
AT HER CORE A MEDULLA OF TREACHERY, THE BURNING MANTLE CORTEX
AND EVERY TREE THREADED THROUGH HER FLESH, NERVE AND ANTENNAE

HER SPIES! LISTENING
ITS TOO LATE!
WE MUST GO ON WITH DEFORESTATION

NOW SHE'S GONE UP AND CONJURED A STORM
EARTHQUAKES, TIDAL GRAVES, AN ACT OF WAR
OH MOTHER HOW MANY CORDS MUST WE SEVER?
THROUGH YOUR UMBILICAL DOMINION
WE WILL CUT OURSELVES FROM YOU ABSOLUTELY

HARVEST TIME! PRUNING
CLEAR CUT HER!
EVEN DESERTS AREN'T LEVEL ENOUGH

WE SHALL PLUCK EVERY SINGLE LIVING THING
SHE MUST BE SHORN
AND STERILIZED

MOTHER WE NOW SEE HER HEART EXPOSED
WE WOULD KILL OURSELVES JUST TO KILL HER
REACH IN AND PLUCK OUR HER AORTA
WE WOULD KILL OURSELVES JUST TO KILL HER (repeat)

STRIKE! BEFORE SHE
BURIES US!
BACK INTO HER WOMB OF BLACKNESS

WE MUST NEVER ALLOW HER TO RECLAIM US
THE SCENE OF OUR BIRTH
WE WILL ARREST THE EARTH FROM TURNING
WE WILL END THE CYCLE OF REBIRTH

PLUCK!
