Time stood dark and silent and the stars they gave no light |
|
I wandered in an endless dream, haunted by the night |
|
I saw four ghostly riders, the horses in a line |
|
Each in turn did point at me and say I'm on full ?rein? |
|
We are the sculptors of the land, the rulers of the sea |
|
We are the falcons of your sins, gardeners of the trees |
|
The air about you is burning and the sea below does drown |
|
And the legacy you leave your ?swan? will surely bring 'em down |
|
Bring 'em down Bring 'em down Bring 'em down |
|
Bring 'em down Bring 'em down Bring 'em down |
|
A curse upon you men of war, with gun or pen in hand |
|
The power sword or . . . the castles made of sand |
|
You always have good reason to take more than you need |
|
Your hearts are full of paper and your minds are full of greed |
|
Bring 'em down Bring 'em down Bring 'em down |
|
Bring 'em down Bring 'em down Bring 'em down |
|
What is deeper than the ocean, colder than the grave |
|
Stronger than your armies all and braver than the brave? |
|
Those who know and ?knowing know? will sow on fertile ground |
|
Those who don't and never would are those you will go down |
|
Bring 'em down Bring 'em down Bring 'em down |
|
Bring 'em down Bring 'em down Bring 'em down |
