With my teeth I'll bite this beast
Climbing up my throat but won't come out my mouth
I can feel it pulse but it won't stop till I stop breathing
This beat was made out of falling stones
All the riches we held, did we see what we had?
From the distance we hear the big weight of the freight
And they are shipping it off, just the ships leave for bad
And this stream is to leave us behind
We were young, had ideas, but the ages bleached out
And the riches we had turned to flames, turned to doubts
And the starving set in and the wars spread again
And the stream is to leave us behind
With my teeth I'll bite this beast
Climbing up my throat but won't come out my mouth
I can feel it pulse but it won't stop till I stop breathing
This beat was made out of falling stones
All the riches we held, did we see what we had?
From the distance we hear the big weight of the freight
And they are shipping it off, just the ships leave for bad
And this stream is to leave us behind
We were young, had ideas, but the ages bleached out
And the riches we had turned to flames, turned to doubts
And the starving set in and the wars spread again
And the stream is to leave us behind
And we were gods, had the clouds, told the lights told the rain
Set the dates, set the forms, made the forms, made the plans
We went far, we grew old, we grew older than death
Just to find us left all behind
And the time we faught hard was just not to defeat
With the plans we set up we've gone tired again
We were old, we were dead we've been dying all the time
And the plan was to leave us behind
