Lyrics (unofficial)

[rev. Aug. 5, 2014]

According to evidence
We all descended from God's magnificence
The holy world, a diamond time
We are the scions of this royal line

Oh you fools, glow glorious
Return the fire that was stolen from us
A million things must come and pass
We are the casing and the cover and the cast

Come inside, bring the dawn
Let light and music and honour be born
My golden ones who dare to fight
You stand against the fabrications of the night

Writing tunes with much revere
Preserved by people and cut and battered here
Take those blows, stand your ground
Or wander lost and never to be found
