The Great Furnace Lyrics & Tabs by Lovely Dark
The Great Furnace
guitar chords lyrics
The pressure splits the mountainside
Venting fire into frigid climes
The devil knocked, the earth abides
St. Michael, he can't free us from the ties that bind
How we dear we find our motherland
Which cradled us gently like a lover's hand
Staring now, we understand
Can't claim, can't calm, can't comprehend
When the sun fades out, and the tide draws back again
A white flag unfurls to the black wave's end
What birthed us once will swallow whole
The weapons from heaven that the trickster stole
No yolk, no harness can control
It's not a beast of burden but a gift bestowed
From field to ash
No yolk, no harness can control
It's not a beast of burden but a gift bestowed
From field to ash
From clay to clay
Formed in the fire and the fire takes
The vessels break, and are swept away
From field to ash
From clay to clay
We are truly a sight to behold.
