lyrics

There is something sacred in the lay of the land
After the thaw
Keep my sense of wonder and try to understand
After the thaw

Looking through modern eyes, hard to see their worth
After the thaw
But this is coming from an age now called snowball earth
After the thaw
Cannot connect
With the minds of the ancient
Feels all a guess to me
Patterns all around
Nothing written down
Projecting our own fantasies

Like to roam freely, wander all alone
After the thaw
Through old stones sticking out like they're dino bones
After the thaw
Places of time and space?
Temples to the stars?
All just a guess at best
Now they're meeting places
For all those new age faces
And mystic folk in fancy dress

All reverence and mystery
All custom and folklore
Used to believe our history
Now I don't feel that way
I don't feel it anymore

There is something sacred in the lay of the land
After the thaw
Keep my sense of wonder and try to understand
After the thaw
