Tusk and Bone

She said tell me again

Bout when giants walked amongst us

With their memories reaching back

To connect with everything they saw

And how they shook the ground

As they raised their mighty trumpet

For he laid them low with sticks of thunder

When paper still ruled our hearts

Trophies on the wall

Hung by rich men in the cities

Bought and paid with casual intent and calice brevity

We hoe and plow the fields

No row left unturned

We cleared a million miles

With no tree left unburned

We conquered every inch

We beat and crack the stone

Left nothing in our wake

Little but us alone

With only tusk and bone

What about the one with castles made of winter

And the miles of clean wide open are shown like diamonds in the sun

How they wasted in the sea as we choked upon the waters

But the smoke kept rolling thick and black by the dragons we had made

We hoe and plow the fields

No row left unturned

We cleared a million miles

With no tree left unburned

We conquered every inch

We beat and crack the stone

Left nothing in our wake

Little but us alone

With only tusk and bone

She said tell me again

Bout when giants walked amongst us
