Lyrics Lewis Watson – The Peaks
Text:
So they came, one by one,
There was never any warning.
Blood out the stuck pig fields like it was gonna last, long.
And I saw the whole rise,
And all flesh spun, a lattice of it reaching out.
And I’m left holding my head, looking down at every grave.
With all millennia passed, just a flicker and a wave.
And I’ve seen more villages burn than animals born.
I’ve seen more towers come down than children grow old.
Cross the peaks, cross the marsh, cross your fingers for the last time.
Pass out the blame to someone, never steppin’ up, son.
And nobody’s asking why is your head bent down? So?
There’s trillions lost, I’m dreaming of a different time.
And I’m left holding my head, looking down at every grave.
And all millennia pass, just a flicker and a wave.
And I’ve seen more villages burn than animals born.
And I’ve seen more towers come down than children grow up.
And I’m left holding my head looking down at every grave.
With all millennia pass, just a flicker and a wave.
And I’ve seen more villages burn than animals born.
I’ve seen more towers come down than children grow old.
