once there was a time
when no man had ever touched the earth
all that has been built was balanced
and so was man's birth

come with me
and you'll see

you've been put here for a reason
use your powers well
keep respect for all
because on my surface you will dwell

when the morning comes
we find our way in life
her powers make the trees look green
the sun will laugh to flowers in the sand
I came through
another night

your disgrace for me
has brought up shame on my behalf
what we've seen so far
feels like you're tearing up my scars

on my recall
I've shown you all
you careless fools
I make the rules

the sun will laugh to flowers in the sand
I came through
another night
