Tusk and Bone

She said tell me again

'Bout when giants walked among us

With their memories reaching back

To connect with everything they saw

And how they shook the ground

As they raised a mighty trumpet

Before we laid them low as sticks of thunder

When people still ruled our hearts

Truth is on the wall

About rich men in the cities

Bought and paid with casual intent

And callous 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 cracked the stone

Left nothing in our wake

Little but us alone

Without but tusk and bone

And what about the one

With castles made in winter

And the mouthes are clean wide open

And shown like diamonds in the sun

And how that you waste it 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 road left unturned

We cleared a million miles

With no tree left unburned

We conquered every inch

We beat and cracked 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 among us
