Leave Her Alone

The footprints that you’ve left,
a trail of pollution,
stop hurting her,
soon there will be no solution.

Poor Mother Earth,
steps down from her throne,
nature, beauty, all destroyed,
just leave her alone

She makes birds fly,
she makes trees sway,
with her gentle breath.
She twirls around to make night and day.

Everything is dying,
all the birds that have flown,
she still loves you but,
leave her alone.
