Lyrics
As we sailed through the clouds over plains of emerald green
Describing a journey through beautiful, lush landscapes.
A million dead unseen we were justifiably proud
Feeling proud despite witnessing numerous unseen deaths.
They saw the doors opening they saw the smothered ground
Others observed destruction while doors opened and ground was covered.
They heard the fire ravaging we thrilled at every sound
Thrilled by the destructive sounds of fire.
Judges of the night with the calculus of godly might
Acting as judges in the dark using immense power.
Cause the world to weep as we lay your body down to sleep
Making the world mourn as a body is laid to rest.
How it all tortures endlessly gone tomorrow the same
Reflecting on endless torment repeating daily.
Can you in all humility give all that power a name
Questioning if immense power can be humbly named.
When the kiss of a feather has worn the mountain down
Illustrating the gradual erosion caused by subtle actions.
In its annual orbit of the sun
Referencing the cyclical nature of events.
When will the suffering cease and do we all deserve our peace
Asking when suffering will end and pondering deserved peace.
(Destiny is but to run)
Implying fate determines a predetermined path.
Will our wealth increase when will we all be released
Questioning if prosperity will come and when liberation will occur.
(Future's only just begun)
Highlighting the early stages of the future.
But it was not always like this now I gaze with jaundiced eyes
Looking back with skepticism on exploited gains and questioning why.
On the fruit of our exploitation I stop to wonder why
Wondering where time and achievements have disappeared.
Where has it all gone all the time that we won
Questioning the utilization and waste of time and lives.
All our lives and all of this waste
When will the suffering cease and do we all deserve our peace
Repeating the question of when suffering will end and if peace is deserved.
(Destiny is but to run)
Suggesting destiny drives a predetermined course.
Will our wealth increase when will we all be released
Questioning if wealth will grow and when freedom will be attained.
(Future's only just begun)
Emphasizing that the future holds vast possibilities.
