He once stood at the ocean
He was king of the lands
All he knew was forgotten
He'd the world in his hands
Then came the great flood and washed it away
Ignorance came here to stay
Now he's lost his own future
Forgetting his past
Swimming in his delusions
What will be his next path
You wanna know where we came from
You wanna know your inheritance
Let me take you back in time
Let me take you to the fall of man
There's no thing as original sin
Why would we fall out of knowledge
When all we did was forget
Why are we still getting nowhere
Learning the same things again
There was a time when we knew more
There was a time when we could expand
We had the knowledge to be fair
We had the tools right between our hands
We f*cked it up when they got in our head
Why would we fall out of knowledge
When all we did was forget
Why are we still getting nowhere
Learning the same things again
Hear the winds
From the clash of the titans
And all human sins
Far and beyond, we've searched every pond
From the heavens to the earth through history of our birth
Every stone every leaf every bone we've turned
And tweaked to create our home
A carbonated fire burned with delight
As the path of desire enchanted our sight
From stardust we came to mud we will be
The fountain of youth no one held the key
To the end my friend and through space and time
Like an echo from the past as washed out in sand
As this tale in rhyme
