Migration
vom Album Dust & Gold
Lyrics
Two million hooves shake the ground
The dust rises like a second sky
No fence no wall no river wide
Can hold what the earth set in motion
Migration nothing stops what the earth has started
Migration nothing stops what the earth has started
Nothing stops
Nothing stops
The river foams with crossing bodies
Hooves churn the water into mud
The crocodiles wait below the current
But the herd moves on like rising blood
Two million animals agree on one direction without a word
The compass lives inside their blood and points toward the rain
Migration nothing stops what the earth has started
Migration nothing stops what the earth has started
Nothing stops
Nothing stops
The calves run faster than their legs
Should let them but the herd decides
The pace and every animal
Becomes a muscle in the tide
They pour across the Mara's mouth
Like lava flowing up a hill
Defying water weight and teeth
With nothing but collective will
