Long before the fire, long before the bomb
Long before the sea ran dry, in the light of a dying sun

I can recall a time when the wind whispered
Through the trees
When fish teemed in the ocean
And gulls sailed on the breeze

And I can recall a time
Though it was long before, long before I was born
As I ride through the twilight of an empty world
Where there is no one left to mourn

I hear them calling me, whispers of before
Telling of a time when the rain still fell
And the tide lapped on lonely shores

I can recall a time that we will never see
Never see again... instead

All that remains, is a revenant
Of a time before, before it all went bad

I can recall a time when there was
Plenty for our needs
Before it was all wasted
Just another consequence of greed

And I can recall a time that we will never see
Never see again... instead

All that remains, between sand and sky
A crumbling edifice of a better time

Memories of winter, memories of spring
Memories of howling wolves and
A hawk's cry on the wind
There is a silence, neither peace nor quiet
Merely an echo... that remains...

All that remains, is a revenant
Of a time before, before it all went bad

When lands green and fertile
Are poisonous and grey
What could have been enough to make them
Throw it all away
But amongst the ashes
Brackish waters and decay
The ghosts that wander endlessly
Mourning for better days
