Can-utility And The Coastliners (2008 Digital Remaster) - Genesis (创世纪)[00:00:00]
The scattered pages of a book by the sea[00:00:08]
Held by the sand and washed by the waves[00:00:15]
A shadow forms cast by a cloud [00:00:19]
Skimming by as eyes of the past but the rising tide[00:00:25]
Absorbs them effortlessly claiming [00:00:33]
They told of one who tired of all singing [00:00:38]
"Praise him praise him "[00:00:42]
"We heed not flatterers " he cried [00:00:46]
"By our command waters retreat [00:00:49]
Show my power halt at my feet "[00:00:56]
But the curse was lost [00:01:02]
Now cold winds blow [00:01:04]
For from the north overcast ranks advance[00:01:08]
Fear of the storm accusing with rage and scorn [00:01:15]
The waves surround the sinking throne[00:01:21]
Singing "Crown him crown him "[00:01:25]
"Those who love our majesty show themselves "[00:01:29]
All bent their knees [00:01:39]
But he forced a smile even though[00:03:12]
His hopes lay dashed where offerings fell [00:03:14]
Where they fell[00:03:22]
Nothing can out peace destroy as long as no one smiles [00:04:56]
More opened ears and opened eyes [00:05:06]
And soon they dares to laugh [00:05:11]
See a little man with his face turning red[00:05:29]
Though his story's often told you can tell he's dead[00:05:31]
