Текст песни Further Adventures Of The Time Being

They built the pyramids, toiled with tons of stone

Irrigated deserts, built giant golden thrones

Built palaces in India and a dome on the moon

Illustrated ceilings, praised God with strange choirs

Fed the five thousand, built cities of spires

Felt the pull of science unravel in their minds

Charted celestial bodies and were punished for their finds

Conquered snow-peaked mountains, drove jungles to retreat

Were drowned in vicious rapids and were heralded for their feats

Fantasized in Babylon, built a home in space

Scaled the walls of China against all human oddsChurch - Further Adventures Of The Time Being - http://ru.motolyrics.com/church/further-adventures-of-the-time-being-lyrics.html

Won battles without hope and saw men turned into gods

Still they hide their faces well unbetrayed by Heaven or Hell

Only traces to be found although their history resounds

Disconnected they displayed all the discoveries they made

And now they wander round the earth beyond the realms of death or birth

If you look you'll see them there like clouds hanging in the air

And they said the earth was flat, sailed off the world into a vat

Turned the planets into toys then played marbles like small boys

Invented love, invented hate, hung them off the arms of fate

Hear them whisper hear them speak, seems they found what we still seek
