Taking, taking the fruit  letting it all wither away  wither away, leaving mere hate  Man has always abused his sister  Yet it's she who feeds the child which will once again become man  Fighting, fighting the wars  the enemy slain, spoils for the victor  (yet) mothers in pain, mothers in pain  Dying, dying sea  Our fragile womb, mother of all  all living things, all living things  Man has always abused his sister  Yet it's she who feeds the child which will once again become man  Instinct of pride  Think, think we not all  in means of gain, until the womb  can no longer sustain, no longer sustain  Man has always abused his sister  Yet it's she who feeds the child which will once again become man  Instinct of pride
