The Church - Further Adventures Of The Time Being слова песни
They built the pyramids, toiled with tons of stoneIrrigated deserts, built giant golden thronesBuilt palaces in India and a dome on the moonIllustrated ceilings, praised God with strange choirsFed the five thousand, built cities of spires Felt the pull of science unravel in their mindsCharted celestial bodies and were punished for their findsConquered snow-peaked mountains, drove jungles to retreatWere drowned in vicious rapids and were heralded for their feats Fantasized in Babylon, built a home in spaceScaled the walls of China against all human oddsWon battles without hope and saw men turned into godsStill they hide their faces well unbetrayed by Heaven or HellOnly traces to be found although their history resoundsDisconnected they displayed all the discoveries they madeAnd now they wander round the earth beyond the realms of death or birthIf you look you`ll see them there like clouds hanging in the airAnd they said the earth was flat, sailed off the world into a vatTurned the planets into toys then played marbles like small boysInvented love, invented hate, hung them off the arms of fateHear them whisper hear them speak, seems they found what we still seek
