The Mine

[Verse 1]

The quarry sparkled like a gem

An opportunity fresh to taste

Profit-laced sustainable energy

A sacrificial shallow well

[Chorus]

Now there's no flowers

In the sand

The water’s taken

Cloak and dagger at the mine

[Verse 2]

Posing for the LA Times

A company from the Sunshine State

Is turning water into champagne

A matador's hypnotic cape

[Chorus]

Now there's tortoise shells

On hollow land

The water’s taken

Cloak and dagger at the mine

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Now there's no more story

Left to this land

The water's taken

Cloak and dagger at the mine
