The Last Hour of Ancient Sunlight

歌詞

Black is the sunlight shimmering below; It flows through life and the guilt we share Our sorrow, it cuts through the undergrowth As we abandon this ravenous Earth alone The zeitgeist dimmed the surface and seized the soul Our Mother wept behind the fence And we drained her blood, then forgetting her face And hide from everyone… To breathe, to conquer To linger, to utilize the ignorant herd In rapture from nature we divorce Like orphans by desire From this closing light The bewildered sleep The shadowy voyager is lurking; He's in the flesh of landscapes vaporous The vacant, untiring Sovran of old… He's the machinery; igniting the paralyzed soil We took the blood of the earth And fell in love with death With life itself as an excuse Black is the sunlight shimmering below; It flows through life and the guilt we share We're hiding in chorus as starry eyes close And seasons part in farewell; 'cause we drained her blood, then forgetting her face To hide from everyone The bewildered sleep The shadowy voyager is lurking; He's in the flesh of landscapes vaporous The vacant, untiring Sovran of old… He's the machinery; igniting the paralyzed soil
