Mitochondrial Eve Lyrics

Walk the path that’s unknown
Along the water's edge
We will journey
Where the forest is fed
Disease no longer follows
And the sun heats us strong
The fire burns with ease
And the river runs deep
Even the serpents fear our hunt
But short-lived is this human front
As ice forms over our bodies
And purge eternal molds

The fire lights the fear of all cold and hungry
Pale is the skin from no sun in this ice plane

This frozen air steals my blood
Another body skinned and worn
Cycle through these centuries
Of just enough not to die
The brain exhausted and eclipsed
Worn soles, hard, meet the bone
Enshrined in stars I live on
Look to the sky and read my thoughts

Fire is the center of all man
But I of the pack run loyal for the moon
