The word is the surface of the land
Words give no hint for the tone
The melody is only an approach, a diplomacy
To give the land voice, for it can evade
Fish, birds, a river in the throes of death
By the shores of unrest
Undaunted
The colic of the bass bends the nerves
And the strange chuckles behind
Bells of a lost herd
lyrics
Arriving at new lands
Bringing the old to the new lands
For there is a fight against oblivion
Blessing the land
Standing firm through calling
A narrow path to settle what’s vast
Nomads with invisible stories
No properties
The word is the surface of the land
Words give no hint of the tone
The melody is only an approach, a diplomacy
To give the land voice, for it can evade
Fish, birds, a river in the throes of death
By the shores of unrest
Undaunted
The colic of the bass bends the nerves
And the strange chuckles behind—
Bells of a lost herd
