lyrics

SABERTOOTH:
There is more than meets the eye. A lost history swept beneath the sea.
These numbers are not coincidence, and they deserve your interest.
There is more than meets the eye. A lost history swept beneath the sea.
These numbers are not coincidence, and they deserve your interest.

See the golden number appear time after time. There is pi inside and outside these walls.
The clues are many, and they span east to west. Knowledge explained as not obtained reveals itself as having been.
The skeptics will rot, as enlightened embrace the mystery,
And respect the evidence and efforts put forth by those who preceeded us to teach about our past.
Show me how to maneuver toward our very future.

Our state remains fragile in this system of balance. Sanity and survival shaped by magnetics.
The clock ticks. I retain hope but remain vulnerable.
The planet wields the power to shift my mind, alter my emotions, impair my judgment and destroy my capability.
With an eye on the pyramid and a gaze to the sky, the code will crumble beneath the weight of perception.
As we start the translation and unravel the answer, in peace we will live or at peace we will die.

There is more than meets the eye. A lost history swept beneath the sea.
These numbers are not coincidence, and they deserve your interest.
There is more than meets the eye. A lost history swept beneath the sea.
These numbers are not coincidence, and they deserve your interest.

All that is can be gone in an instant. Tomorrow we may be sabertooth.
In this moment, we practice forgiveness. Seeing the one regardless of attributes.

There is more than meets the eye. A lost history swept beneath the sea.
These numbers are not coincidence, and they deserve your interest.
There is more than meets the eye. A lost history swept beneath the sea.
These numbers are not coincidence, and it is in your interest to pay attention.

Austin Taft Colorado Springs, Colorado

Drummer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist focused on making unique and intriguing music – whatever that should entail. The new album, “Skeletons”, has been self-described as “Prog-Metal-That-Sometimes-Isn't”. The album before that was acoustic-focused.
So...you never know what you're going to get (hopefully). ... more
