Earth
Eternal
As the mountain's soul
Infinite as the wisdom
Of the deathless
We're lead to fly with our thoughts
We will soon return to the ground
With hands twisted in the dust
Shaping the identity of an endless fate
Birthright to crawl down
Earthquakes of deserts
We will stand
Above to face the Time
Dust to dust we'll crumble towards our graves
Tied to our ego like a greedy root craving for sap
Inexorably
Ineluctably
Smothered by the embracing stone
We've hoped in vain
To leave our empty tombs here to drain
The time from our faces
Tyrants on the Earth that's been for ages
Mother of life and spaces
Thinking of writing the pages of history
Crafted with misery
Nothing will as it used to be
We are slowly fading away
Slowly fade away
Majestic as our shattered plans
Will our actions be immortal enough?
Everything will be taken back
In wisdom
Earth will be the keeper
Pleahh!
Glancing at peaks we've not caught
We will walk this path with this bond
With hands twisted in the dust
That slips through fingers
Everything's taken back
(Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley)
(It's) all so far
From the memory we hoped would be remembered
The sun
Will rise
On the wasted land that's our heart
The wasted land that's our heart
(It's) all so far
From the memory we hoped would be remembered
The sun
Will rise
On the wasted land that's our heart
The wasted land that's our heart
(It's) all so far
From the memory we hoped would be remembered
The sun
Will rise
On the wasted land that's our heart
The wasted land that's our heart
As the mountain's soul
Infinite as the wisdom
Of the deathless
We're lead to fly with our thoughts
We will soon return to the ground
With hands twisted in the dust
Shaping the identity of an endless fate
Birthright to crawl down
Earthquakes of deserts
We will stand
Above to face the Time
Dust to dust we'll crumble towards our graves
Tied to our ego like a greedy root craving for sap
Inexorably
Ineluctably
Smothered by the embracing stone
We've hoped in vain
To leave our empty tombs here to drain
The time from our faces
Tyrants on the Earth that's been for ages
Mother of life and spaces
Thinking of writing the pages of history
Crafted with misery
Nothing will as it used to be
We are slowly fading away
Slowly fade away
Majestic as our shattered plans
Will our actions be immortal enough?
Everything will be taken back
In wisdom
Earth will be the keeper
Pleahh!
Glancing at peaks we've not caught
We will walk this path with this bond
With hands twisted in the dust

(Ozymandias by Percy Bysshe Shelley)
(It's) all so far
From the memory we hoped would be remembered
The sun
Will rise
On the wasted land that's our heart
The wasted land that's our heart
(It's) all so far
From the memory we hoped would be remembered
The sun
Will rise
On the wasted land that's our heart
The wasted land that's our heart
(It's) all so far
From the memory we hoped would be remembered
The sun
Will rise
On the wasted land that's our heart
The wasted land that's our heart
