Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The night thickened into black earth
The ground sparked under my feet
I didn't know the stars had tumbled down
And that earth had turned into sky
[Verse 2]
I should have understood
I should have seen it comin'
The signs on the road had changed
The fires on the mountain died
[Verse 3]
I should have understood
I should have seen it comin'
The signs on the road had changed
The fires on the mountain died
[Verse 4]
I felt ascending, but I really sunk
Everything had turned upside down
As I was struggling to the mountain peak
I had dug into the grave of all hope
[Verse 5]
I should have understood
I should have seen it comin'
The signs on the road had changed
The fires on the mountain died
[Verse 6]
I should have understood
I should have seen it comin'
The signs on the road had changed
The fires on the mountain died
[Verse 7]
Why didn't I follow the bear-star?
Why shun advice of my brothers?
I did not study the signs of the heavens
I've silenced the words of my sisters
[Verse 8]
I should have understood
I should have seen it comin'
The signs on the road had changed
The fires on the mountain died
[Verse 9]
I should have understood
I should have seen it comin'
The signs on the road had changed
The fires on the mountain died
[Verse 10]
(Why did I shun the advice of brothers?)
The fires on the mountain died
(Why did I silence the words of sisters)
The fires on the mountain died
