Mother Earth Lyrics - Threshold

Between the tumbling of the mountains and the vastness of the sky 

Lurks a power that we all dream of none of us knows why 

She flies into a temper every time she comes awake 

Lead us not into destruction with the mess that we now make 

Oh mother earth don't seal our fate 

I'm still standing in the light of day 

She's the great benign she-wolf who gives breath to every life 

She's a builder and destroyer but she will not be sacrificed 

She flies into a temper when thunder rapes the skies 

Our mother and protector through the interstices of time 

Oh mother earth don't seal our fate 

I'm still drowning in ultraviolet rays 

But in the temples, where the children play 

They've split the atom, turning night-time into day
