Turn away to face the cold, enduring chill
As the day begs the night for mercy, love
Your sun so [bad word] it leaves no shadows, only scars
Carved into stone under the face of earth
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes

 [bad word] like a river to the sea
Tears like a river to the sea

And in our world a heart of darkness
fire zone where workers great their parts
Then bleed for it
While Jara sang his song as a weapon
In the hands of love
You know a miner's blood still cries on the ground

 [bad word] like a river to the sea
With tears like a river to the sea

I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts
While bullets rape the night of the merciful
I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky
And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill

 [bad word] like a river to the sea
 [bad word] like a river to the sea
And when it's raining, raining hard
River to the sea
That's when the rain will break your heart
River to the sea

Oh great ocean, oh great sea [bad word] to the [bad word] to the sea
