Song | The First Rock |
Artist | Royal Hunt |
Album | Collision Course: Paradox II |
作曲 : Andersen | |
In the beginning there was one and only God, you see - all said and done - | |
the only one you chose to rule the world | |
But then... as time was passing by you kept - without even knowing why - | |
re-entering new faces to the fold | |
So was it progress or regress? A bunch of them created such a mess | |
inventing laws all written gold on gold | |
"From now on one icon leaves no room for others" | |
So now we're back - a single face in every corner, showing holy grace, | |
demanding bigger palace - worth the king | |
We're working hard to build it right, we're slaving every day and every night, | |
just dying to complete this bloody thing | |
Higher, higher... we can't stop. The tower's getting higher | |
Build a perfect house of light on our flesh and bones | |
to keep a sacred image under lock and key, but | |
every single dream we had kept ending in the mud | |
when we replaced religion with the rock... | |
the very first mistake - a simple rock. | |
Inferior gods must be gone... tomorrow there'll be only one. |
