Toil across the ocean sea
Convict hull brought you across
Heaving earth behind you
An indescribable landscape of shadows
Unknowing / Unseen / Moil
These trees stand as tall as the gods of old
I have ripped into the marrow of my forebears
Genetics gnawed and reshaped
By the vastness of desolation
A land unknown to me
Wrought of moil, bleak split of fortunes
Harsh convict labour
The backbone of my genetics
Lost Heritage
The creation of new depths
I may now fill with mine own
She has sent south those of the hull
An arrival into continent
With a heart still beating
At the bottom of the ocean
Land Unknown, a convict destiny forged
Land of my ancestors, taken from Hearth
And taken from Irish Paddocks
Though a kingdom was wrought
From wet shadows and pale dust
I still can't help but think
My heart will always beat at the bottom of the ocean
Writhe in estuary
The sanctuary of colony
The violence of the land
The sanctuary of colony
The violence of the land
