The Darkest Of The Hillside Thickets - A Thousand Fists текст песни

"Immense beings... A hundred limbs which resemble tentacles...
Minds of such control and capacity, that each limb is capable of performing a different function."

"By Any Other Name" (1968)

In dreams I sought to breach the other side
Now what I've wrought in her I won't confide
I found a nameless tome
I brought it home
but this she found
and burned it in the ground

In the ground
She buried it in the ground
(repeat 2x)

I hear its call, I can't escape that thrall
A thousand fists are spreading in the mists
They walk the wind
They're in the ocean depths
In space, no sound
They're moving in the ground

In the ground
They're burrowing in the ground

In the ground
They're moving now in the ground

Watch the sea, watch for me
Witness high velocity
Watch the waves, watch the caves
Watch the freshly covered graves

Watch the sea, watch for me
Witness high velocity
Watch the waves, watch the caves
Watch the loosely covered graves

In the ground
Their bodies move in the ground
