she’s the mother deep in slumber
dressed in green, but stripped naked
“do i deserve this?” she wondered

dug her skin, looking for an answer
slowly…piece by piece, dissected
she’s the mother deep in slumber

She cried a thousand river
they bathed and had them polluted
“do i deserve this?” she wondered

every lonely night, she always shivers
hugged by nightmares, horribly vivid
she’s the mother deep in slumber

her body was owned by the colonizer
life-consuming species, so wicked
“do i deserve this?” she wondered

they attacked and left a crater
hungry species overpopulated
she’s the mother deep in slumber
“do i deserve this?” she wondered
