The Solar Era by The Lunar Era Lyrics
I've been working the fields night and day
Sweat mixes in with the dirt and the clay, wither away
Plows can cut through the soil and stone
Eyes to the harvest of seeds yet unsown
Nothing has grown
Earth torn by the shovel and spade
Triumphantly viewing the progress that's made
Rest in the Shade
Seeds sprouting roots taking form
Food for the kinsmen to weather the storm
Winter is borne
Skin turning pale, muscles are frail
You look like you've never seen the sun
Running away you know you should stay
I promise the best is yet to come
Sit, face buried deep in a screen
Trapped in the box of a corporate machine
Yearn to be free
Caged dressed in a suit and a tie
Agony bottled up deep down inside
Waiting to Die
Light flickers in fluorescent glow
Revealing the path to a life yet unknown, stand up and go
Sun radiates down from the sky
Blessing the people who know how it feels to work in the fields
Skin Turning Pale, muscles are frail
You look like you've never seen the sun
Running away you know you should stay
I promise the best is yet to come
Work every finger to the bone
Give up the rights to all you own
Sweat mixes in with the dirt and the clay, wither away
Plows can cut through the soil and stone
Eyes to the harvest of seeds yet unsown
Nothing has grown
Earth torn by the shovel and spade
Triumphantly viewing the progress that's made
Rest in the Shade
Seeds sprouting roots taking form
Food for the kinsmen to weather the storm
Winter is borne
Skin turning pale, muscles are frail
You look like you've never seen the sun
Running away you know you should stay
I promise the best is yet to come
Sit, face buried deep in a screen
Trapped in the box of a corporate machine
Yearn to be free
Caged dressed in a suit and a tie
Agony bottled up deep down inside
Waiting to Die
Light flickers in fluorescent glow
Revealing the path to a life yet unknown, stand up and go
Sun radiates down from the sky
Blessing the people who know how it feels to work in the fields
Skin Turning Pale, muscles are frail
You look like you've never seen the sun
Running away you know you should stay
I promise the best is yet to come
Work every finger to the bone
Give up the rights to all you own
