Lyrics Tomes Of Clay - Manilla Road

Tomes Of Clay

Sumeria
The beginning of the science of man
Cuneiform
Man’s first writings from a civilized land
Niniva’s
Grand library of Ashurbanipal
Tomes of clay
Tell the stories of the truth that was lost
Gilgamesh
First true epic plagiarized by new faith
Ancient tales
So historic that refute christian hate
Babylons
True beginnings in this knowledge so pure
Zigurat
Still is standing in the city of Ur
