Before Today, Beyond Tomorrow Lyrics

Desultory Before Today, Beyond Tomorrow

Your time means nothing, a journey for the sun
A change of wind and weather into a different
kind. It's like you never passed upon this
golden plains. Your life was just a flash, I wish
I'd remember

The morning breeze threw sand in my face
But I will meet the day with dignity. I know
the secrets buried in this place. But I can't
remember

I watched your father, I have seen them all
Owe the treasures of our land, I have seen
them fall and now the screams have died into
a distant world a place of joy and pride I still
can't remember

My limbs are carved in stone on the ground
I'm gonna stay awake forever. I know each
move every single sound but I can't remember

I've seen the centuries slowly pass me by
They may have marked my being but by god
I'm still alive. Days passed in dust of sand
against the crimson horizon. I feel the touch
of our fathers hand, I wish I'd remember
