Oh Sweet Mother Earth, Gaia
Oh sweet Mother Earth, Gaia
I want to feel your serenity again
Why is the place so descolete
We’re are the plants and trees
The beauty in the pain
But what happened to you
The earth is now
Ruins of stone
Destruction
May I please ask
Where did you go
Oh sweet Mother Earth, Gaia
Oh sweet child,
I have gone far and beyond
For I am sleeping
For eternity
For I cannot wake
But I hear your pleas
So I came to thee
To give you a blessing
You now can control nature
With the sytars and nymphs
For I am fading away
Cause mankind is forgetting me
I will name you now
It will be your forever
You will be known as Demeter
For you are a child of mine
Please do well
Oh sweet child,
Oh sweet Mother Earth, Gaia
Thank you for this blessing
And my name
I know you have gone
But the place is beauty
It’s not so descolate
For the nymphs and sytars have helped
I know you can’t hear anymore
Cause your sleeping now
Just know
I will try to help keep this earth
Just the way you did
To keep peace and serenity
Goodbye
Oh sweet Mother Earth, Gaia
