lyrics

A thousand swimmers on a beach
Waiting for orders from a saucer shaped machine
That sucks the fishes from the sea

I feel the whispers in the street
Of people praying to the ancient gods for peace
But all I hear is grinding teeth

And your tired eyes will see
Pictures of the century
And the light behind your iris disappears

I see destruction in my dreams
Towers collapse under the giant thumbs of war
The crimson trail that´s left behind
by the four riders in the sky.

And your tired eyes will see
Pictures of the century
And the light behind you iris disappears

Like a treasure yours to keep
Pictures of the century
When the only place to hide is in your sleep
