Mother Earth is dying
There are people crying
Where will it lead us?
Where will we go?
Nobody knows

Why let her die?
Why choose to destroy her?
She gave us all we need
Now it's ruined by
Temptation and greed

Watching the sky turn to grey
People are dying every day
Toxins in the air to no despair
The air that we breathe gets worse every year

Mother Earth is dying - Can't you hear her crying?
She's crying - Crying

The world it turns but suffers slow
Not many care or even know
But soon the day, the day will come
When it is all, all too late

Mother Earth is dying - Can't you hear her crying?
She's crying - Crying

[Solo]

Mother Earth is dying - Can't you hear her crying?
She's crying - Crying

Spoken words of peace are just a lie to me
You hear it all the time, it's a God damn crime
Can't you hear her, how the wind cries?
Can't you see her, the colour of her skies?

Mother Earth is dying - Can't you hear her crying?
She's crying, She's crying
Crying, Crying, Crying, Crying

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.
