Skyclad

Skyclad - The Thread Of Evermore lyrics

Your rating:


Harbringer of death and slaughter -

(next time round you'll be the slain)

Refuse the dying man your water -

(thirst when you come back again).

Don't spare the rod don't spoil the child -

(I hope you like to take a beating)

Feed your face while others starve -

(you'd better learn to not miss eating.)



Shining beaty - fair and wise,

Has served it's time as dim an sallow

An honest judge seeks truth through eyes

Which once gazed lifeless from the gallows.

Hands that heal the sick and lame,

Long since held tools of inquisition.

Tongues which speak words true and sane

Have chanted sermons on perdition.



[Chorus:]

Cross the bridge that spans forever

Living thread of evermore.

Without begining ending never,

Living thread of evermore

See the footprints in the sand

Countless lifetimes gone before,

Point our path with unseen hands

The living thread of evermore.



From egg and sperm 'neath sticky sheet,

To ash and bone or maggot meat,

The way looks neither pleasant or too long

So have you stopped to wonder whether

If when weighted against a feather,

All your deeds appear so big and strong?



Cross the bridge that spans forever

Living thread of evermore.

Without begining ending never,

Living thread of evermore

See the footprints in the sand

Countless lifetimes gone before,

Point our path with unseen hands

The living thread of evermore.



Light and dark complete the circle

Find the yang to fit the Yin

Barren desert - lush green myrtle

Chase the wind to lift your wing



From egg and sperm 'neath sticky sheet,

To ash and bone or maggot meat,

The way looks neither pleasant or too long

So have you stopped to wonder whether

If when weighted against a feather,

All your deeds appear so big and strong?



Cross the bridge that spans forever

Living thread of evermore.

Without begining ending never,

Living thread of evermore
