Ice Age - Leviathan Lyrics

We're driving down the 401
The city in our wake
Up into the northlands
Following the scarlet snake
Away from all their slogans of despair
Etched upon these city walls
Speaking of our coming fall
And as the rain falls
She hums an old and sacred song
My eyes start to shine as I join her in this song
Her face so sweet
Like an angel from above
She's all I ever ever need
Not their world devoid of love
Underneath the bridge lost souls gather around makeshift fires
We reflect upon the empty world behind us full of liars
A tear is caught in the corner of my eye
Suzie hangs her head down low and softly start to cry
Cloak and dagger all I saw and the tribulations left behind
Our false sense of supremacy carved into my tired mind
Our reason justified rape and pillage for centuries
All done for the common good as they set ablaze the village
A solemn radio voice
Speaks about war on some far-off shore
We pass the miracles of the of a modern man rotten to the core
Cursing our reason for these nuclear plants
Rivers green and rising encroaching on our toxic lands
The towns we motor past are but prison cells
The lives these people lead is but a farce from hell
No longer high on the tight rope wire
Balancing above the bottomless pit with flames of fire
Oh don't hesitate now don't feel scared
It's better here in nature that be feathered and tarred
Back into the unspoilt serenity of sanity
Wash away the blood their greed their vanity
Driving into the sunset we regain our sense of humanity
Our barbaric nature substituted for some amity
This furtive moment forever etched into our hearts
Our hearts of mortal clay
Caching fire like tarot cards
In all my rage I stand up on her hills at night
And stare off in the distance a million thousand orange lights
We inherited the gold dust and uranium rust
The sky is about to fall this insanity cannot last
Oh I pray and pray
For a more sensible way
Money is not the leviathan
Profits no longer our holy cross
