Dragons of Old

Song: Dragons of Old
Music, Lyrics & Voices: Ai

[verse1]
In ages past, when the world was young and green,
A different dawn on a vibrant scene.
Great lizards roamed, with thunder in their stride,
Where forests grew and rivers did abide.

No scientists were there, with modern name,
To catalogue their power and their fame.
Just early man, with spear and flickering fire,
Who saw the beasts and felt a burning ire,

[verse2]
Or awe, for creatures of colossal size,
That walked the earth before their very eyes.
The flying giants, ruling in the air,
Were fiery serpents, symbols of despair.

The gentle browsers, with their heavy step,
Were scaled behemoths, where the shadows slept.
And to the humans, simple, bold, and strong,
They knew the truth and where the tales belong.

[bridge]
So histories merged, in stories told for long,
Of men and dragons, in an ancient song.
A world of wonder, wild and undefined,
Where man and scaled beast lived, intertwined.

[chorus]
For in their tongue, the name they gave was clear:
These dinosaurs were known to cause such fear.
They called them dragons, creatures of the myth,
The ancient, powerful, wondrous monoliths.
