Fates Warning - Damnation Lyrics

Thousands of years
Before the dawn of history
Ancient races tears
Are flowing like a river to the sea

Where sacred river ran
White deer had roamed the land
Brilliant twilight hit our dreams

Primitive child, your unforgotten tribe calls to you
Descendants we are one
The tangled maze is broken once again

A myth without a meaning
You shade the light from the seed
The earth and virgin soil watch it bleed
The earth and virgin soil

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Red, white, black in city masses
Corporate buildings spread like rashes
Stacked upon each other forty high

Stabbed each other in the back
You money-hungry maniacs
Dig up earth and spit it in your eye

And to intrude the sacred land
Where the mortals have been banned
Where your own forefathers lie in rest

To disturb this mountain side
Where in battle we did ride
And our warriors where they lie, the earth digest

Hear our cry from down below
Let our restive spirits go
And you've trapped us in your world of sin
Let the plague begin, damnation

Your cities disappear
To earth's interior, don't you know?
You've got to let your spirits go, let 'em go
You've got to let those spirits go

Let 'em go

Yeah, yeah, yeah
You've got to let your spirit go
