Sculptured above the 60th parallel lyrics

[music and lyrics by Don Anderson]



This is why the morning is so beautiful 

Even though my stomach feels so ill 

I can see the sun peeking at me 

Anxious to dry the dew covered world 

And I sow myself into the Earth 

And my skin takes on the dirt 

And I bury my tears in the Earth 

As my blood feeds the world 

And I bury my tears in the Earth 

I live each day 

Digging myself away 

Buried beneath the sound 

Of time passing by 

What the sun took away 

Remains here today 

Alone in the world 

Embraced by the Earth 

The ground is richer at this time 

And the plants are green and damp with rebirth 

And I bathe myself in the Earth 

And my skin becomes the dirt 

And I bury my tears in the Earth 

As my blood drowns the world 

And I bury my tears in the Earth 

I live each day 

Digging myself away 

Buried beneath the sound  

Of time passing by 

What the sun took away 

Remains here today 

Alone in the world 

Embraced by the Earth 

I live each day 

Digging my grave 

To rest beneath the ground 

While time begins again 

Once the ages are rebuilt 

As they were before 

The sun will be watching 

And morning will fall again
