lyrics

Clay goddess dance
in the dawn of the fertile crescent.
Born of earth and fire
sublimed in tectonic trance.

Sculptures of the gods

Call of the wild
from times of ancient black earth.
Volcanic parade
Precambrian monument rise

Axis mundi
The eternal throne
Worshiped by man
Engulfed in total devotion

Sculptures of the gods!
More than meets the eye
Sculptures of the gods!
The pillars of the sky

Across the ages
there is a transformation
of man into god
Depicted in the shadows
Illuminated by ancient flames.

Clay goddess dancing in the dawn
Of earth and fire she is born
On every day she sits on the axis of the world
Sculptured by man or sculptured by a god?

From mountain's flesh
marked by the hammer of the storms
to erected stelae
on ancestor's burial mounds.

Burned by ancient flames
washed by mythical floods
rising from the shadows
Sculptures of the gods
