I was much too far out all my life and not waving but drowning 



First there is an ocean then there is no ocean then there is 

And then we have a mountain range and then a plain and a range again 

Last there is a desert then a fertile plain then dry again 

Once there was a people then there were none then some more did live 



Then there was a city then a pile of rocks and a town again 

Then they made a weapon that destroyed the lot in a cloud of rain 

Then they raised a temple to a god who died and failed them 

Then they left and traveled far and then they flew back home again 



In the gardens of the dead when the disembodied entity said 

Let there be body let there be mind let there be man unkind

She gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me 



I entered in & my seed spread generations spawned from the visions in my head 

We raised it up and we pulled it down we advertised and marketed up town 

She gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me 



I can tell the world the ravages of time will seek you out 

I can tell the world the savageness of mind will find you out 



I was destroyed and I lived again my unborn children strengthening the strain 

Countless lives marching throughout time marking out the details of my crime 

She gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me 



I can tell the world the ravages of time will seek you out 

I can tell the world the savageness of mind will find you out 



And the knowledge that I have gained has been lost again and again and again 

But it's really all the same all that has changed is the name 

She gave the reasoning to me and now the guilt is all on me 



I can tell the world the ravages of time will seek you out 

I can tell the world the savageness of mind will find you out
