Lyrics
Eocene Dawning
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Breathing in the misty air
Illuminates a speckled coat
The sunlight trickles through the leaves
Piercing the majestic trees
A lustful vision seethes
From the first small step
A mighty race stampedes
From a tribe amongst horses
Derived the most astounding class of steeds
Sentries in the canopy
Watching, waiting for their time
A shift in power, primal urge
Take these steps toward the earth
Stand firm on the verge
Seeking guidance from the stars
They speak of great heroic deeds
They speak of how the small beast stands
Dominating all the animals
Taming all the lands
From the first small step
A mighty race commands
From a nervous clan of primates
Is derived the maelstrom known as modern man
