The Pebble and the Devil's Hand

from The Two EPs by Simone Morelli

/

lyrics

Temples and flames, after the war was lost
the moon above the freighter sets off
that's the poison dart that has made the change
that's the arrow that has been stuck to your chest

does the wolf lie, far away from the fire
does the lonesome pioneer fight for a good cause
does the ship sail away back in time
o! ain't the human race always lying

so watch your back
o! I'm the outcast on the island that makes the compass sway
and no ruin is forgotten, sunk in its past
nor its burned in its ash
that's the poison dart that has made the change
here's the hand that has thrown the spear to your old vampire heart

so lift us up, 'cause we snatched the pebble from the devil's hand
lift us up lift us up before our time runs off
