Lyrics
[Intro]
Carved out of stone
Earth, blood and bone
They knock the mountains down
And the earth's grating sounds
[Verse 1]
They soothe the great machines
That yearn desperately
Just to lay them down
Within her gaping mouth
[Chorus]
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
[Verse 2]
They wander ridges high
Between the earth and sky
Like spikes upon a crown
We wear upon our brow
[Verse 3]
And want is not a need
Reserved for human beings
It's fingers on your throat
Is pain that all things know
[Chorus]
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
More than a symbol
More than I bargained for
[Verse 4]
An army of the golems is stalking now the heart's lands
Eating all reality
Producing only dust and sand
Nothing hurts them
Nothing gets under their stone skin
When their earthen mouths will open up
And just what words will come out but
We wish we were dead
