| So they came, one by one,
|
| There was never any warning.
|
| Blood out the stuck pig fields like it was gonna last, long.
|
| And I saw the whole rise,
|
| I saw the whole thing fall, down.
|
| And all flesh spun, a lattice of it reaching out.
|
| And I’m left holding my head, looking down at every grave.
|
| With all millennia passed, just a flicker and a wave.
|
| And I’ve seen more villages burn than animals born.
|
| I’ve seen more towers come down than children grow old.
|
| Cross the peaks, cross the marsh, cross your fingers for the last time.
|
| Pass out the blame to someone, never steppin' up, son.
|
| And nobody’s asking why is your head bent down? |
| So?
|
| There’s trillions lost, I’m dreaming of a different time.
|
| And I’m left holding my head, looking down at every grave.
|
| And all millennia pass, just a flicker and a wave.
|
| And I’ve seen more villages burn than animals born.
|
| And I’ve seen more towers come down than children grow up.
|
| And I’m left holding my head looking down at every grave.
|
| With all millennia pass, just a flicker and a wave.
|
| And I’ve seen more villages burn than animals born.
|
| I’ve seen more towers come down than children grow old. |
