Staring at the darkening sky
My mind was wondering why
This had to happen to us ..
happen to us ... happen to us ...
Without a sign you let out your fury
Many are dead now, thousands in injury
We beg you please forgive us ..
forgive us ... forgive us ...
We cry now for the many that are gone
buried beneath the earth and stone
In sadness and mourning the tears fall ..
and fall ... and fall ...
So harsh has been your punishment
anger your many a lash meant
maybe a lesson, maybe another chance ..
another chance ... another chance ...
Mercy mother earth ... mercy please.
