Scimitar Lyrics

Ghostlimb Scimitar

Black death
While they were crying
in their bibles ancient knowledge rested in Arabic
from Toledo east to the Caspian
6000 years stand as a testament while the mystery of the hinterland draws our eyes from the typical
the east always wears a tarnished crown in the court of the peripheral they laid straight border lines
this cuts the tie that binds the crescent
one more fertile a difference place and time
