Words and music by Rick Mester
The breath of One
Who breathed it all
The animator
Before the fall
And I was young
I was a child
We thought this world
Was still worthwhile
Cursed and broken
The sins of earth
Were laid upon us
At our birth
And from that birth
Came our death
A first and last
A hopeless breath
Earthborn, the eyes of man
Desperation, understand
Earthborn, the eyes of man
Suffocating, breathing sand
Saints and angels
Demons and us
In between the
Lies and Trust
The truth is there
We see in part
An interweaving
A pulling apart
Our joys resound
and sorrows gain
Where earth she writhes
In Unholy pain
Who will listen
Who can hear
Who can save us
Are you near
Earthborn, the eyes of man
Desperation, understand
Earthborn, the eyes of man
Suffocating, breathing sand
