The Circle
Song by Red Meadow
Album
There's a circle in the distance
Megaliths so high, reach into the sky
And the tribes all come together
To celebrate as one, waiting for the sun
Communion with the heavens
August stars of light, coursing through the night
And the gods all dance above them
Life will carry on, reborn with the dawn
They lived their lives by the Earth and sky
Wisdom lost to the sands of time
Selfish and deluded
Spreading war and dearth, masters of the Earth
And what will we leave our children
If we cut down all the trees, pollute the air they breathe
Illusions of progression
Towers built so high, blotting out the sky
And where are all the heroes
Brother can't you see; it's up to you and me
Who, oh who do we think we are
Take us back 'cause we've gone too far
Take us back the way we've come, to the circle, to hail the rising sun
Take us back where we belong, in the circle, we join our hands as one
Who, oh who do we think we are
Take us back 'cause we've gone too far
Megaliths so high, reach into the sky
And the tribes all come together
To celebrate as one, waiting for the sun
Communion with the heavens
August stars of light, coursing through the night
And the gods all dance above them
Life will carry on, reborn with the dawn
They lived their lives by the Earth and sky
Wisdom lost to the sands of time
Selfish and deluded
Spreading war and dearth, masters of the Earth
And what will we leave our children
If we cut down all the trees, pollute the air they breathe
Illusions of progression
Towers built so high, blotting out the sky
And where are all the heroes
Brother can't you see; it's up to you and me
Who, oh who do we think we are
Take us back 'cause we've gone too far
Take us back the way we've come, to the circle, to hail the rising sun
Take us back where we belong, in the circle, we join our hands as one
Who, oh who do we think we are
Take us back 'cause we've gone too far
