The Old Earth

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Beast broken by time Captive voice, streams lie Dangerous world in Heavens fire Earthly child brings sickened sight [Verse 2] Beast broken by time Captive voice, streams lie Solar light blessed noble night Deadly gifts bring sickened sight [Bridge] Blessed with sixth second sight Blessed with sixth second sight [Verse 3] Black solar light Waist deep, waist deep in sky In heavens fire Blessed earthly child Brings sick, brings sickened sight Second sight Brings sickened sight Blessed with sixth second sight Black solar light Waist deep, waist deep in sky In heavens fire Waist deep in heavens fire [Verse 4] Fire claws the old earth and takes the sea Seas give their treasure, breathing freely All mankind will breathe their last Down on our knees Down on our knees Down on our knees [Verse 5] Shrouded in cold ropes and cutting nails Nailed to the old oak in rain and hail All mankind will breathe their last Down on our knees Down on our knees Down on our knees Blessed with sick second sight Gifts from God bring forth suffering
