Borknagar - Abrasion Tide lyrics

We're ensnared by the fate if persistence As the forces of nature interact To weather slope and mountain, close and by distance Creating expanding ventifacts Running water conducts the erosion Leading grains of sand in the grind Empowered by wind,time, and oceans To wear down soil's rind A tide that changes primary plains Even principles positions A flood that runs untimely through the elements and our veins Shifting our focus and our definitions New perspective from a vaster reflection Thoughts flow like water from a hillock That's repeatedly rinsed ,achieving friction Releasing knowledge of the rock An archaic course across the outer core Seasons transform while remodeling the Solum Above the altering scenery stars soar Watching the drama like diffuse phantoms The land is disintegrated by a power that was ice bound At the same time fertilized As our forefather's feet touched a ground That nature constantly has revised
