lyrics

They woke up to the sound of heavy voices, speaking loud.
And all in rhyme, so they knew that it was time the preparation ends.
And time to step out, but the world took them by surprise.
Could not believe their eyes – but they stood…

Unified in rule and on feet
I broke out when reason took me
They made fire and fire burnt them
Look what killed the master and his men.

They came back from the grave.
They’d been watching everywhere. And they found…
That everyone’s the same, in their own way
And trying to make sense of hate
Couldn’t take the pain.

Memory told them they were weaker
Bigger ships they hit ground deeper
They saw signs but could not read them
Look what killed the master and his men.

Knowing now what they should have then
Forcing rules that only prized them
Raving ‘truths’ but without wisdom
That’s what killed the master and his men.
