Texty: Vienna Teng. Inland Territory. Watershed.
While you were building your empires
I was still sleeping, I was still sleeping
And while you were setting your woods afire
I was still dreaming, I was still dreaming
Now I will unsettle the ground beneath you
Send my waters ashore, creep into your bed
Find you in every corner
While you argue it over
I am not waiting, I am not waiting
And while you retreat to your comforts
I am not fading, I am not fading
I've done this many times before you
Old Shanghai, New Orleans
Amsterdam and Mumbai
Strange new creatures to scavenge your pores
Oh, I've done this many times before you
Ashen sky, lightning storms
Deltas to desert plains, wartime on every border
I've done this many times before you
Watched the pattern take form
Children your time is done if you say it's done together
I was still sleeping, I was still sleeping
And while you were setting your woods afire
I was still dreaming, I was still dreaming
Now I will unsettle the ground beneath you
Send my waters ashore, creep into your bed
Find you in every corner
While you argue it over
I am not waiting, I am not waiting
And while you retreat to your comforts
I am not fading, I am not fading
I've done this many times before you
Old Shanghai, New Orleans
Amsterdam and Mumbai
Strange new creatures to scavenge your pores
Oh, I've done this many times before you
Ashen sky, lightning storms
Deltas to desert plains, wartime on every border
I've done this many times before you
Watched the pattern take form
Children your time is done if you say it's done together
