Hawkwind

Hawkwind - Fall Of Earth City lyrics

occassion of great importance. For it was said by some that Earth City

had uncovered a single time sleeper from the time before.

Although the cryptic writings upon his tomb were now faded beyond

decipherable reading, it was said, by the disembodied members of the

ruling kind, that the entombed was from that time on Earth before the

city stretched its metal web from pole to pole leaving green things only

in the wells of immortal minds.

Upon the third revolution after its arrival, the tomb that slept without

life was removed for inspection. The day was programmed for a clear dome

above, with a mild breeze wafting from the central weather post. Below,

throngs of class three occupants were gathering from various sectors to

observe the opening. As per standard procedure, their data input

stations were fed appropriate propaganda so that their reports would

coincide with what the rulers had predetermined.

And so it was on that day of opening, his spirit did appear and confuse

once again. It was evident to all that what lay within was not of mortal

composure. Thoughts emanating from deep within its dimensionless cave

conveyed this belief to all within the medi-dome.

What is this appariition now amongst our kind?

Quickly thereafter, all pressure was released from within the stillness.

Earth City, unknowingly at that time, was about to enter a new phase of

its existence.

Violent quaking began to shake the towers of sector 63. Manifestations

of melting spead its wings over the structure until once again, ancient

soil kissed the sky.

And the beginning of the end swept all that was into its eternal grasp.
