| [00:50.70] |
High in the sky watchful eyes in the sky |
| [00:53.88] |
Hovering overseers accounting men's deeds |
| [00:58.14] |
Listeners of your prayers bearers of guidance |
| [01:02.52] |
Vril riding Sovereigns Unknown |
| [01:04.92] |
Nestled where old maps showed monsters |
| [01:08.28] |
Unknown places none dared to dwell |
| [01:11.97] |
Kept men off our shores playing on their fears |
| [01:15.57] |
Like skilful fiddlers play their strings |
| [01:32.10] |
But soon the tales didn't suffice |
| [01:35.40] |
And an explorer ended our way |
| [01:39.75] |
To his peers he told his journey |
| [01:42.75] |
From desolation to luxuriance |
| [01:46.38] |
Flying clumsily across the ice sea |
| [01:49.92] |
Our way came his tiny airplane |
| [01:53.55] |
Greeted him with warmth and showed him our world |
| [01:58.32] |
Still he came back betraying |
| [02:16.41] |
Off our shores then came |
| [02:17.31] |
Their mountains of steel |
| [02:25.05] |
Spewing smoke across the skies |
| [02:27.24] |
The midges challenged the eagle |
| [02:27.90] |
On a fiery vessel he came |
| [02:30.60] |
Now returns sailing derelicts |
| [02:34.11] |
Counting his remaining hands |
| [02:37.35] |
Almost swept overboard |
| [02:40.83] |
From thousands a few were left |
| [02:44.31] |
Adrift in the wake of the hurricane |
| [02:47.61] |
The once victorious cry seeing his might |
| [02:51.09] |
Flotsam adrift onto the tide |
| [03:07.95] |
But in the mind of unbelievers |
| [03:11.01] |
None of this has ever been |
| [03:14.46] |
Superstition blends in science's leaking infancy |
| [03:33.09] |
Upward come the prayers of men |
| [03:33.90] |
Nestling open their mouths in hope |
| [04:43.32] |
Begging the skies |
| [04:54.54] |
For the worm to come |
