We heard it in the ground

It’s waking now

Buried deep beneath the stone

Older than the world we know

Every root and every bone

Trembles where it lies below

We fed the soil, we fed the sky

Never asking who or why

Now the earth begins to sigh

Something ancient pulls the tide

Hear the calling in the night

Feel it crawling up inside

Ancient god - it’s coming

From the dark, it’s rising

We were never meant to last

We’re the harvest, we’re the past

Ancient god - don’t fight it

Hear the drums, it’s calling

Every soul beneath the sun

Now returns to where it’s from

Fields of crops turn into dust

All we built begins to rust

Every promise breaks to ash

Nothing here was made to last

Clouds stretch across the land

Marking all with unseen hands

No escape, no final stand

We were never in command

Bow down

Don’t run

It’s done

Ancient god - it’s coming

From the dark, it’s rising

We were never meant to last

We’re the harvest, we’re the past

Ancient god - don’t fight it

Hear the drums, it’s calling

Every soul beneath the sun

Now returns to where it’s from

We are the seeds you’ve sown

We are the flesh you’ve grown

Every life you let unfold

Now comes back to fill your throne

Take us, take us

Ancient god - awaken

Every chain is breaking

All the ground beneath our feet

Bends before the end we meet

Ancient god - unmaking

Every breath we’re taking

From the dust to dust we fall

You were always over all

It’s waking

It’s here

Ancient god
