[00:12.86] | Up until one century ago there lived, |
[00:15.88] | In the Zi Duang provence of eastern country. |
[00:19.67] | A glass-like spider. |
[00:22.73] | Having devoured its prey it would drape the skeletons over its web in weeks creating a macabre shrine of remains. |
[00:31.14] | |
[00:32.84] | Its web was also unique in that it had many layers, like floors a in buuilding. |
[00:38.20] | |
[00:45.94] | At the top of this palace-like place, assembled with almost apparent care, were tiny shining objects, glass, beads, dew-drops. |
[00:58.44] | One could almost call it an altar. |
[01:01.45] | When the breeze blew thru this construction, |
[01:04.50] | It produced sounds of wailing, crying. |
[01:08.13] | |
[01:08.70] | Tiny wails, tiny cries. |
[01:12.69] | |
[01:19.13] | The baby spiders would get scared and search frantically for their mother. |
[01:23.70] | But the Glass Spider would have long gone, having known that the babies would survive somehow on their own. |
[01:30.36] | Oh-The Glass Spider had blue eyes almost like-a human's. |
[01:35.83] | They shed tears at the wintered turn of the centuries. |
[01:41.34] | |
[01:44.78] | Don't you hear this wasted cry, Life is over you |
[01:55.45] | (Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone) |
[01:58.65] | But you've seen who's in heaven. Is there anyone in hell |
[02:08.98] | (Mummy come back 'cause it's dark now) |
[02:15.72] | |
[02:23.15] | Take care, take care. |
[02:29.10] | (Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone) |
[02:34.29] | |
[02:34.98] | Somewhere she glows divine. Somewhere she wakes alone. |
[02:42.29] | |
[02:44.99] | But you, you've promise in your lovin' eye. God it's dark now. |
[02:52.06] | Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah |
[02:53.74] | Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah |
[02:59.81] | Gone, Gone the water's all gone |
[03:02.87] | Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone |
[03:06.83] | |
[03:09.05] | Stay low on the ground, my fire can drive you, savage and afraid |
[03:16.20] | Spitting at the dawn, come along before the animals awake |
[03:20.29] | |
[03:26.54] | Run moving all night, rivers to the left. |
[03:29.66] | If your mother don't love you then the riverbed might |
[03:33.17] | Gone, gone, the water's all gone |
[03:36.29] | Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone |
[03:39.42] | Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah |
[03:41.92] | Jah Jah Jah Jah Jah |
[03:47.86] | Gone gone the water's all gone |
[03:49.98] | Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone |
[03:53.36] | Gone gone the water's all gone |
[03:56.58] | Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone |
[04:00.13] | Gone gone the water's all gone |
[04:03.39] | Mummy come back 'cause the water's all gone |
