Lyrics

Sunlight falling down beyond the hills,
as the night life raises;
Smell off fires drifting through the woods,
As the evening sounds begin;
Shadowed figures moving on the trails,
muted voices calling;
Soon the council grounds begin to fill,
And the drum begins to call;

Surely now we've learned what we need to know;

Painted faces dancing round the fire,
sparks that leap to answer;
Beating rhythms floating through the air,
Angers leash is now undone;
What will be the new lay of the land,
When the quarrel’s over?
Will the common man be better off?
Will the common man have won?

Chorus
That was all of us 2000 years ago

Distant thunder shakes the very ground,
Heavy armor moving;
Fighters thunder through an empty sky,
Watching over troops below;
We all love the excitement of the chase,
We all love a hero;
But if we’d just connect the dots we’d see
That pretty soon we’re gonna… we’re gonna
