lyrics

Black bee on the Southern Sea
The old horizon looking at me
I always wanted to be a charioteer
But we’re a mountain people
Have no need for wheels
I used to grind the grains
And imagine I rode into the rays
Scratch into the rocks
That I am alive
But it was on that horizon
Trees poked through the blue
I had heard the stories
Of raiders from the moon
“The Sea People are coming!”
From across the water
They spell our certain doom
Perhaps they will not find me
Hiding in my room
We will never surrender!
I don’t know the Sea People
But I will be one soon
