So much slower than our march they flew Our guardian angels who would now hear The true words We would march across the plains and burn down all green and live So bulletproof it was
So courageously we invented the night Drank the bottles dry Engineered the sand and with godspeed Sent it moving across the fields and closed down the blue sky So bulletproof it was
The roads traveled And the ones ahead And nothing compared To the miles grown inside us
And every detail Of life's machinery Out on display Down to the lovely shadows that fall
And every detail Of life's machinery Out on display Down to the color of the eye
