The Ape
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.
Blue seas red summers
long years in slumber
deaf ears hear thunder
dump lips speak wonders
Red eyes burning through the night
giant wings rise up in flight
on the dark earth choked with life
nature's creature stands upright
See the beast upon the land
kneeling in the burning sand
and his heart beats in his hand
Dead seas long summers
lost years in slumber
blind eyes seek wonders
old hearts beat thunder
