joe barbour - deadly skies كلمات الأغنية

[intro]

[verse]
we were born to run
we once were prey
there was agency to blame
for our twists and turns of fate

hostile creatures lurked
beneath our feet
they prowled among the trees
their fangs awaiting meat

watched from all around
and listened to
the human now assumes
she’s nothing more than food

life and death reside
in stronger wills
in hands and eyes that k!ll
she begs their stomachs fill

[chorus]
we don’t know
we can’t explain
these goings_on
this frightful maze
phenomena
outside our range
of knowledge
so we pray
who commands
the lightning strikes
the winds that blow
and howl all night?
trapped under these
deadly skies, our
invocation dies
with you and i

[verse]
civilized, the hunters
build with stone
on sands where nothing grows
a wonder to behold

monumental pillars
evergreen
with gold and silver leaves
a woodland for a queen

oracles and prophecy
our guides
a cosmic pair of eyes
acutely supervise

though we cannot save
our mothers dear
our children shall not fear
we are the apex here
[chorus]

[verse]
books are written
legends handed down
old words inscribe the crowns
of men to whom men bow

even in our
democratic age
we still consult this sage
on his ever crumbling stage

though predators
of old no longer chase
they still live in our brains
the narrative remains

we give our minds
to shepherds to be kept
to shelter and protect
it’s all a failed attempt
