The Thread Of Evermore

歌詞

Harbringer of death and slaughter Next time round you'll be the slain Refuse the dying man your water Thirst when you come back again Don't spare the rod, don't spoil the child Hope you like to take a beating Feed your face while others starve You'd better learn to not miss eating Shining beauty, fair and wise Has served it's time as dim an' sallow An honest judge seeks truth through eyes Which once gazed lifeless from the gallows Hands that heal the sick and lame Long since held tools of inquisition Tongues which speak words true and sane Have chanted sermons on perdition Cross the bridge that spans forever Living thread of evermore Without beginning, ending never Living thread of evermore See the footprints in the sand Countless lifetimes gone before Point our path with unseen hands The living thread of evermore From egg and sperm 'neath sticky sheet To ash and bone or maggot meat The way looks neither pleasant or too long So have you stopped to wonder whether If when weighted against a feather All your deeds appear so big and strong? Said, have you stopped to wonder whether If when weighted against a feather All your deeds appear so big and strong? Cross the bridge that spans forever Living thread of evermore Without beginning, ending never Living thread of evermore See the footprints in the sand Countless lifetimes gone before Point our path with unseen hands The living thread of evermore (Light and dark complete the circle Find the yang to fit the yin Barren desert, lush green myrtle Chase the wind to lift your wing) From egg and sperm 'neath sticky sheet To ash and bone or maggot meat The way looks neither pleasant or too long So have you stopped to wonder whether If when weighted against a feather All your deeds appear so big and strong? Cross the bridge that spans forever Living thread of evermore Without beginning, ending never Living thread of evermore See the footprints in the sand Countless lifetimes gone before Point our path with unseen hands The living thread of evermore
