The Day

The trees gave up their roots

And the lepers left their caves

All the rattlesnakes came down from the mountain

And the kings all became slavesOn the day

That my Lord came

The fire split the beams, the wall's comin' down

The day my Lord cameThe tears filled up my eyes

The curtain has been drawn

To lay to waste this land to me

Is like the beauty of the breaking of the dawnAnd as a black hand swept across the earth

I knew that the day came

When the fish float on the water with their bellies up

I know, I know that the day cameAll the rattlesnakes came down from the mountain

And the kings all became slaves

The trees gave up their roots from the earth

And the lepers left their cavesOn the day

That my Lord cameThe coyotes left their dens

The horses left their stables

And they bowed down to the ground

Every creature that was ableA blanket of moss will cover the earth

And I'll know that the day cameIt's the shifting of the guards

Time to start anew

The old gods have all failed

And their successors tooMy King, my King will wipe the slate clean

Houses become tombs

My King, my King will take what grows

And every creature's womb and make it His ownMy King, He is displeased

To be forgotten and alone

And the ones who came before

Well, the valley is filled with their bonesI am the storm brewing up in the east, the west

From every direction at once
