Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Elephant spirits
Tower of ivory
Story of ancient deities
[Verse 2]
Seizure of the fleece
Protector of its place
[Verse 3]
Fly through dreamscapes
Of valleys, gullies and spires
Herd across suicidal slopes
[Verse 4]
Changeless moonshines
Circle cyclops image
[Verse 5]
A race of one-eyed beings
All feared and shunned
Rakshasa demon
[Verse 6]
Seizure of the fleece
Protector of its place
[Verse 7]
Eyes all around you
Enter the labyrinth
[Verse 8]
Visions of the hunted
Beware the birchmen
[Verse 9]
Incisors thought to be
Skulls of us
Our release
Written by: Brann Dailor, Troy Sanders, William Breen Kelliher, William Brent Hinds
