"We Are Of This Earth" lyrics

"We Are Of This Earth"

He was the wood, she was the glue
He was the gun, she was bullets
A bond is made in blood
She was the rain, he was the snow
She loved him hard, he let her go
We face the wind on broken wings
Doesn't life go fast and slow?

Don't go
I know

Will I ever see you again?
So slow, the time goes
Will this feeling ever end?
So slow, the night goes
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
Don't kill me slowly
Do it fast, do it fast
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
Don't feed me hopeless
Make it last, make it last

Her lips were bold, his eyes were red
Her scars were new, his ones still bled
Minefields made of lust
He was the tree, she was the earth
He was the sea, she was the river
We are stars in the sky
We love in waves
I don't know why

Don't know why
She says

Will I ever make my amends?
So slow, the time goes
Will these circles ever end
So slow, the night goes
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
Don't kill me slowly
Do it fast, do it fast
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
Don't feed me hopeless
Make it last, make it last

It's so wild how sunflowers bloom
In time, we find ourselves like we're new
I'm struggling

Will I ever see you again?
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
Don't kill me slowly
Do it fast, do it fast
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
Don't feed me hopeless
Make it last, make it last

We are of this earth
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
We are of this earth
Make it last, make it last
Make it last
