A faint and distant sound
Centuries away
Growing in the night
Hammers crashing down
A million beating drums
Echo through the dark
They echo through the dark
Thunder in the sky
The sound of civilization
A brand new foundation
Thundering tonight
The sound of civilization
It won't let you down
Thundering tonight
Beneath a pitch black sky
Mountains in the dark
Soon to be bathed in light
Hammers crashing down
A million glowing sparks
Burning through the dark
They're burning through the dark
Thunder in the sky
The sound of civilization
A brand new foundation
Thundering tonight
The sound of civilization
Of civilization
Thunder in the sky
The sound of civilization
A brand new foundation
Thundering tonight
The sound of civilization
It won't let you down
Civilization
The sound of civilization
