lyrics

Every strand interwoven Into the fabric of life on earth
Grave consequence of inaction Should be ample reason to reverse course
Kiss the ground

The dust swept away leaving a wasteland, result of active neglect
Treason against the balanced order, Paralysed state - a cliff edge
Is this lost tribe worth saving?

Firestorms , once a natural enabler, Now rampant across the globe
Consuming more and more

Answer found in the humblest saviour, kneel down and kiss the ground

Lost wisdom, Ancient forms were as art

They said the solution is under our feet But they need a little help
So i stand to even the odds
shattering those that fell prey to futile greed

Giving a voice to productive destruction

Maybe sixty harvests left
The hour of doom approaches, Living on borrowed time

By my hand the age of contempt will end

Keys to the kingdom unlocked by modest dirt
Kneel down and kiss the ground

The best material yet by both bands! Dream Unending take their craft to the next level, presenting some of the most captivating guitar work of 2023, a tall order in a stacked year.
