Ancestral

from Memoria Technica by Terrafirma

lyrics

Inheritor by birth
A welcome heirloom
Legacy unearthed
Ancestral bindings to

Return to legend
Return to status quo
Primal mistake
Return to the river’s flow

Return to the river’s flow

Primal
Mistake
Primal

River it calls
Beckoned on breeze
Take me

River it calls
Beckoned on breeze now to
Take me
The coming nights long
Take what they can then forsake me
Let them sing their chorus will ring
But no verse left to follow
no song for tomorrow
Roots bind me here
Numbered in centuries
Keep me slumbering

But this path they think to force me take
Will run its course
And they’ll say that i defied my fate
So gnash and tear
Tooth and claw
Drag away
The soil they dug in will rot with my grave

Tethered to this dream
(Repeating)
Visions run through me
(Repeating)

The roots that bind me here
Numbered in centuries
Keep me slumbering
But this path they think to force me take
Will run its course
And they’ll say that i defied my fate

Let them sing their chorus will ring
But no verse left to follow
No song for tomorrow
Roots bind them here
(Visions poison me)
Tortured for centuries
(Wake the vile dream)
End their slumbering
