Celebration / Sign by EXNATIONS Lyrics
Distant drums
The ground is shaking from the distant drums
The air is heavy on the horizon
Something is coming this way
Spears and stones
There’s no way of knowing if the ancient poems
Were speaking truth about the vast unknown
Maybe it’s better that way
Tell me to run
How could you know
Until it comes close
Distant drums
Is it a march or army this way comes
A celebration or a sign
That we should leave behind
Our free and former lives
Love like water washes over me
Fills my mouth and floods up past my cheeks
Somehow I can still sing
Tell me to run
How could you know
Until it comes close
Everyone needs someone when they hear the drums
The ground is shaking from the distant drums
The air is heavy on the horizon
Something is coming this way
Spears and stones
There’s no way of knowing if the ancient poems
Were speaking truth about the vast unknown
Maybe it’s better that way
Tell me to run
How could you know
Until it comes close
Distant drums
Is it a march or army this way comes
A celebration or a sign
That we should leave behind
Our free and former lives
Love like water washes over me
Fills my mouth and floods up past my cheeks
Somehow I can still sing
Tell me to run
How could you know
Until it comes close
Everyone needs someone when they hear the drums
