Vienna Teng - Watershed |
|
while you were building your empires |
|
I was still sleeping |
|
I was still sleeping |
|
while you were setting your woods afire |
|
I was still dreaming |
|
I was still dreaming |
|
now I will unsettle the ground beneath you |
|
send my waters ashore |
|
creep into your bed |
|
find you in every corner |
|
while you argue it over |
|
I am not waiting |
|
I am not waiting |
|
while you retreat to your comforts |
|
I am not fading |
|
I am not fading |
|
I've done this many times before you |
|
old Shanghai , New Orleans |
|
Amsterdam and Mumbai |
|
strange new creatures |
|
to scavenge your pores |
|
oh I've done this many times before you |
|
ashen sky |
|
lightning storms |
|
deltas to desert plains |
|
wartime on every border |
|
I've done this many times before you |
|
watched the pattern take form |
|
children your time is done |
|
if you say it's done together |
