Kansas - Apercu & Death of Mother Nature Suite

Описание: One of the greatest and most important bands ever.

APERCU
The mist of time is still concealing
The vision that I seek
Those who died have all borne witness
If only they could speak

Yet I saw it all inside me
For a moment were you with me?
Have we done it all before?
Is there really so much more?

Now and then we've all been given
A glimpse of bygone days
I'd give it all to see it clearly
Not shrouded in the haze

Yet I saw it all inside me
For a moment were you with me?
Have we done it all before?
Is there really so much more?

Each man has a memory
And much more than the eye can see
Yet still others linger deep inside you
Haunting thoughts of pain and joy divide you
Look beyond your eyes at the dark and moody skies
For they're standing in your way and I feel the light of day

Now the earth gives forth it's secrets
Held in mountain, sea and plain
They have never been forgotten
Only locked inside my brain

While I slept I had a vision
I remember, you were with me
We have done it all before
In our minds behind the door

DEATH OF MOTHER NATURE SUITE
Every day she gets a little weaker
The beauty she once knew has come and gone
We've murdered all her sons and all her daughters
The blood is on your hands, the time has come
And now she's gonna die

We've strangled all her trees and starved her creatures
There's poison in the sea and in the air
But worst of all we've learned to live without her
We've lost the very meaning of our lives
And now she's gonna die

Once she ruled the earth with love and wisdom
But we were much too smart to live her way
With greed and lust we tried to rise above her
The ignorance of man will reach an end
'Cause now we're gonna die
