letra de hand in hand towards har-megiddo - trespasser xvi

Loading...

from ancient graveyards we extracted life
barrel upon barrel of primordial soup of a new and incendiary kind
we conjured up an eternal summer from a force stronger than a thousand slaves
and we danced and we laughed in the light from the graveyards

on former pastures was thousand-fold factories that catered for a swifter life
vast fields of resilient crops and effective remedies for the plagues of the new silk roads
but what grows in exhausted soil and plastic ashes?

as we marched under a scorching artificial sun
guided and blinded by a seemingly eternal daylight
we chased the night away, rejoice and jubilee!
but who would be there to greet the dawn
when the sun came up next morning?

then came the maxim gun with jade and spice for everyone
tiger tanks patrolled both sides, so that everyone felt safe
the lungs of creation struggled for breath in invisible gas and smoke
as trolley upon trolley filled with loot made its way up north

in the warmth we multiplied and reveled in our merchandise

as we marched under a scorching artificial sun
guided and blinded by a seemingly eternal daylight
we chased the night away, rejoice and jubilee!
but who would be there to greet the dawn
when the sun rose next morning?
as she told the story, i could almost see
the faces of the once people that came before me
they were so colourful and odd, so curious and sad
but proud, and they sang

hand in hand towards armageddon we go
one for one, and all for all
through conjured up deserts and the nuclear snow
hand in hand towards armageddon we go

the once thundering asphalt rivers are now silent
a strange noise cuts through the night, a dying fire

the iron trail still plods away, outside palaces past
no white lines in the sky no more but you can see the stars
