10. This Mortal Soil (4:54)
Floating in red again,
a deepened soil.
Nothing, empty cup,
trade not known.
Showing promise
of a perfect land.
No regrets for a
fallen ground.
The omen passed,
woman possessed.
Reflect on the duties held.
Oceans morph to dust,
chasing the timeline.
Bolts of light flash,
original Storm God.
The atmosphere that floats
above the earth is corrupt for man.
This we know!
What has dwelt within
the early dawn has gone away.
That's okay!
Dig, climb,
ancient elm, root.
Ride the vine of father,
ground our carving.
Dig, climb,
ancient elm, root.
Ride the vine of father,
ground our carving.
The atmosphere that floats
above the earth is corrupt for man.
This we know!
Circle made of ash,
betray her presence.
Huntress, gentle breath.
Listen to the poison rose!
a deepened soil.
Nothing, empty cup,
trade not known.
Showing promise
of a perfect land.
No regrets for a
fallen ground.
The omen passed,
woman possessed.
Reflect on the duties held.
Oceans morph to dust,
chasing the timeline.
Bolts of light flash,
original Storm God.
The atmosphere that floats
above the earth is corrupt for man.
This we know!
What has dwelt within
the early dawn has gone away.
That's okay!
Dig, climb,
ancient elm, root.
Ride the vine of father,
ground our carving.
Dig, climb,
ancient elm, root.
Ride the vine of father,
ground our carving.
The atmosphere that floats
above the earth is corrupt for man.
This we know!
Circle made of ash,
betray her presence.
Huntress, gentle breath.
Listen to the poison rose!
