ELP Tarkus Lyrics
            I. Eruption
            [Instrumental]
        
            II. Stones Of Years
            Has the dawn ever seen your eyes?
            Have the days made you so unwise?
            Realize, you are.
        
            Had you talked to the winds of time,
            Then you'd know how the waters rhyme,
            Taste of wine,
        
            How can you know where you've been?
            In time you'll see the sign,
            And realise your sin.
            Cause I know where you've been
        
            Will you know how the seed is sown?
            All your time has been overgrown,
            Never known.
        
            Have you walked on the stones of years?
            When you speak, is it you that hears?
            Are your ears full?
        
            You can't hear anything at all.

            IV. Mass
            The preacher said a prayer.
            Save every single hair on his head.
            He's dead.
        
            The minister of hate had just arrived to be spared.
            Who cared?
            The weaver in the web that he made!
        
            The pilgrim wandered in,
            Committing every sin that he could
            So good...
        
            The cardinal of grief was set in his belief he'd saved
            From the grave
            The weaver in the web that he made!
        
            The high priest took a blade
            To bless the ones that prayed,
            And all obeyed.
        
            The messenger of fear is slowly growing, nearer to the time,
            A sign.
            The weaver in the web that he made!
        
            A bishops rings a bell,
            A cloak of darkness fell across the ground
            Without a sound!
        
            The silent choir sing and in their silence,
            Bring jaded sound, harmonic ground.
            The weaver in the web that he made!
        
            V. Manticore
            [Instrumental]
        
            VI. Battlefield
            Clear the battlefield and let me see
            All the profit from our victory.
            You talk of freedom, starving children poor.
            Are you deaf when you hear the season's call?
        
            Were you there to watch the earth be scorched?
            Did you stand beside the spectral torch?
            Know the leaves of sorrow turned their face,
            Scattered on the ashes of disgrace.
        
            Ev'ry blade is sharp; the arrows fly
            Where the victims of your armies lie,
            Where the bladed of brass and arrows rein
            Then there will be very little sorrow,
            Very little pain.
        
            VII. Aquatarkus
