Church - The Dead Man's Dream Lyrics
Once I had a name, forgotten nowI breathed the air in a century of wonderI can hear it now in the darkness of the earthGorgeous machines, the sound they made like thunderGreat gardens drip honey-jewels and bright birdsThe pageants pass down avenues of splendorAh, long afternoons by enchanted lakesUpon elephants, so well I do rememberLords and priests and talking beastsGolden calves and telepathsCrystal skulls and screaming gullsWomen glowed tattooed with woadColored mists and amethystsMen were strong and days were longDragons glide on mountainsideMandrake root and angel fruitSighing winds on silver skinCreation transubstantiationUnicorns, electric stormsTunes and runes, we laughed till noonSweet release, eternal peace
