children of the pyramid builders - christoper noyes lyrics

Loading...

you better start with that first breath;
don’t wait for the shot, ’cause odds are
you’re already behind
so help me heave another brick on my back;
we’ve got monoliths to leave
and names to etch in stone

it makes you wonder though, what good it all is
when i’ll be sleeping underneath it all, when it’s completed

hold on
you mallard down
you fickle runner
you act so you have fire at your heels

hold on
you mallard down
you fickle runner
you act so you have fire at your heels

our liturgical words half heard and only misunderstood
were burned wood and dried vines of a ledger
and we were young, oh much too young
to speak on such things
but up and up, oh i push, though i traded my
chains for a rock
and a rock to a sk!ll
and a sk!ll for a look and a thought
and silver and gold in the form of applause

so call out, for you alone know my name
not that ugly thing i wear, nor the tags i boast
oh call out, for it does resound on all the cheaply used
upon these harlot ears
please call out, make brides of every unclean
rusty little rings, with carnations in our hair
so call out, oh what you’ve made in secret:
a dress of every pearl, that bridges every distance
