Lyrics

West of Eden

We were the giants who used to roam.
Here by the Nile we called our home.
One went off missing headed due east.
Carried a plan to conquer his peace.

What is up there sure looks nice.
Whole lot different like paradise.
Let's check it out.

Fruited trees and running streams.
A man and woman we never seen.
What's this about.

She who was looking went out to sea.
Met with the woman crude as can be.
He said eat of this one live never know.
She passed the other bit into it slow.

When he seen what had been done.
He went to her but it had begun.
Can be no more.

Said to the couple you'll surely die.
Seize the tree that gave full life.
Can't be like us.

On your belly west of eden.
It's my plan you have deceived me.

He who went missing did not return.
Valley of the prism place of his throne.
Those who remain there had the same fate.
Tried to reclaim him no it's too late.

Then they did what he used to do.
Wrote it down so it could be true.
But all in vain.

Things got different they knew pain.
Worked to earn and learned to pray.
What did we do.
