Lyrics The Mine - Flat Worms

The Mine

The quarry sparkled like a gem
An opportunity fresh to taste
Profit-laced sustainable energy
A sacrificial shallow well
Now there’s no flowers
In the sand
The water’s taken
Cloak and dagger at the mine
Posing for the LA Times
A company from the Sunshine State
Is turning water into champagne
A matador’s hypnotic cape
Now there’s tortoise shells
On hollow land
The water’s taken
Cloak and dagger at the mine
Now there’s no more story
Left to this land
The water’s taken
Cloak and dagger at the mine
