Eastward of Eden - Acoustic
Eastward of Eden, where the clouds meet the dirt
We left our poor mother and seeded the earth
Gates, they were shuttered, the latches were locked
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where men become Gods
Few though our people, we toiled as one
The fruits of our labors thrived under the sun
Our children, they spread to outnumber the stars
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where day turns to dark
Dark
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind, 'hind
We watered our forest with fire and flood
And fed our own egos with our brothers' blood
We starved every ocean 'till they ate up our shores
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where we always want more
Our towers, they rose up and set with the sun
Our sermons, they burnt us with fiery tongue
We wrought our wings of metal, surprised when we fell
Eastward of Eden, where Heaven's a Hell
Hell
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind, 'hind
Eastward of Eden, where the dust meets the dirt
We murdered our mother and strangled the Earth
Forgive us, oh Mama, whose face we forgot
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where men become Gods
Eastward of Eden, where men become Gods
We left our poor mother and seeded the earth
Gates, they were shuttered, the latches were locked
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where men become Gods
Few though our people, we toiled as one
The fruits of our labors thrived under the sun
Our children, they spread to outnumber the stars
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where day turns to dark
Dark
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind, 'hind
We watered our forest with fire and flood
And fed our own egos with our brothers' blood
We starved every ocean 'till they ate up our shores
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where we always want more
Our towers, they rose up and set with the sun
Our sermons, they burnt us with fiery tongue
We wrought our wings of metal, surprised when we fell
Eastward of Eden, where Heaven's a Hell
Hell
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind
Leave it all, leave it all, leave it all behind, 'hind
Eastward of Eden, where the dust meets the dirt
We murdered our mother and strangled the Earth
Forgive us, oh Mama, whose face we forgot
Oh, Eastward of Eden, where men become Gods
Eastward of Eden, where men become Gods
