12-bar intro

Verse 1:
This land today shall draw itOs last breath
And take into itOs ancient depths.
This frail reminder of itOs giant, dreaming self
While I, with human-hindered eyes,
Unequal to the sweeping curve of life
Stand on this single print of time.

Chorus:
Human wheels spin round and round
While the clock keeps the pace.
Human wheels spin round and round.
Help the light to my face.

8-bar break

Verse 2:
That time today, no triumph gains
At this short success of age.
This pale reflection of itOs brave and blundering deed
For I descend from this vault.
Now, dreams beyond my earthly fault
Knowledge, sure from the seed.

Repeat chorus

Violin solo

Verse 3:
This land today my tears shall taste
And take into itOs dark embrace.
This love, who in my beating heart endures
Assured by every sun that burns.
The dust to which this flesh shall return,
It is the ancient, dreaming dust of God.

Repeat chorus twice
