Drawing from deep within the earth Knowledge forgotten over time The world around us grew dead As we drowned in the wells
We died there on those slopes In the foothills so vast The trees around us grew pale And still we drowned
We found our heaven underground Roots twisting in a path to catharsis Strangling us and choking us And we became the water
The light that blinded was finally killed The light that burnt us was destroyed
Why must we dwell here Amongst our own smoking ruins? These walls are full of longing and remorse Why won't they break? To be under here forever Is to gain eternal life But yet still we are blinded And still we are drowned
Is there no hope in these wells? It is always so dark down here I want to see the light again But there is no hope in these wells
Drawing from deep within the earth Knowledge forgotten over time The world around us grew dead As we drowned in the wells
We died there on those slopes In the foothills so vast The trees around us grew pale And still we drowned
