Skyclad - A Word To The Wise Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • From far outside
  • Earth's fragile atmosphere
  • It's clearly apparent that the end is near
  • The sleeper wakens and removes
  • His golden casque
  • Vital signs return to his quiescent craft.
  • He is truth - a word to the wise
  • Gods children are so young
  • They cannot realise
  • The difference between extinction
  • And life is now only a matter of time.
  • In the beginning was the knowledge
  • He had carried far across
  • The great unknown
  • Millenia have passed since he walked
  • On the savannah where the seeds
  • Of life were sown.
  • Yet even deep in slumber he could hear
  • His children blunder to destruction
  • The caretaker of creation placed a fail-safe
  • At the heart of his construction.
  • Technologies intended
  • As mans slaves mutated
  • Now they are his masters
  • The trust they place in progress
  • Only serves to bring
  • The last days nearer faster.
  • He is truth - a word to the wise
  • Gods children are so young
  • They cannot realise
  • The difference between extinction
  • And life is now only a matter of time.
  • I can see the oceans
  • Stagnent and overflowing
  • Filled with man made waste discharged
  • From my cosmic auditorium
  • I view this crematorium
  • That is your world at large
  • My ears hear the wailing of your children
  • In a future close at hand
  • Just as it was before - so it may be again
  • (If you don't try to understand)...
  • The seas will rise before your very eyes
  • Until they swallow up the land
  • If your polar ice caps melt
  • The cards are dealt
  • And you have died by your own hands
  • I will never help you while you still persist
  • In acting like you're blameless
  • I would rather let your species die forgotten
  • So your folly remains nameless.
  • He is truth - a word to the wise
  • Gods children are so young
  • They cannot realise
  • The difference between extinction
  • And life is now only a matter of time.
  • "When to mischief mortals bend their will
  • How quick they find the instruments of ill
