The Wire |
We listened into the Iceage |
And we built up man round the Picts |
And the daybreak hammered out warning |
To the weak |
We dreamed on moor with passion |
And on the long lochs bluer than eyes |
'Till the mists of bygone ages |
Heard our cries |
I’ve seen us among thousands |
All of one name waiting to run |
And when the charge came heather on heartbeat |
Steel on gun |
The old rock leaves us with fossil |
From the ancient pagan rites |
From the universal inroads |
Back to Christ |
Transmitting, transmitting |
Breaking down the wire |
Transmitting, transmitting |
Breaking down the wire |
As we look out over the morning |
And the days of this life’s spring |
And the joy of Gaelic’s lifeblood |
Made me sing |
Watching your beauty on this journey |
With the lick of youth in your eyes |
Let us sow this olden heartland |
Reap in time |
Transmitting, transmitting |
Breaking down the wire |
Transmitting, transmitting |
Breaking down the wire |
