The floor moves, and it trembles
Old west shakes as it opens up
People are dying
And I know the cause of it all

With so many buried
The dead twitch underground in rows
Dirt breaks, dust follows
Cracks in the plains are exposed

They're restless and clothed
(The quake sets in)
They twitch underground
(The quake sets in)
The dirt starts to shake
(The quake sets in)
In waves through the town
(The quake sets in)

That's why the quake sets in
And dust rises again

Wreckage is clearing
The remnants all fade away
No one understands it
The tremors go on unexplained

They're restless and clothed
(The quake sets in)
They twitch underground
(The quake sets in)
The dirt starts to shake
(The quake sets in)
In waves through the town
(The quake sets in)

All still until dirt breaks, shaking
And dust rises again

Dust rises again
