Track Insight / Lyrics

My gauntlets brush the Polytrichum bed Where Marchantia spreads its thallus thread The factory breathes in carbon dioxide Bryophyta claims what steel supplied Moss on steel grows slow and deep Roots of rhizoid secrets keep No trumpet sounds no banner flies Just chlorophyll in grey skies The blast furnace cools to gametophyte Sphagnum cushions where the workers died My armor oxidizes into loam Liverwort writes its scripture on the chrome Moss on steel grows slow and deep Roots of rhizoid secrets keep No trumpet sounds no banner flies Just chlorophyll in grey skies I name each genus as the rain returns Funaria hygrometrica discerns The protonema threads through cracked concrete A silent choir singing incomplete Moss on steel grows slow and deep Roots of rhizoid secrets keep No trumpet sounds no banner flies Just chlorophyll in grey skies My broadsword hilt bears Andreaea now Black tufts on rust where sweat once marked the brow The walking bass of water through the stone Reclaims the cathedral of the unknown No battle cry no final stand remains Just stomata breathing through the stains The latin names I whisper to the air Become the only liturgy left there Ceratodon purpureus claims the beam Where once the steam hammer drove its dream I lay my tarnished crown on velvet green The oldest kingdom that I've ever seen Moss on steel grows slow and deep Roots of rhizoid secrets keep No trumpet sounds no banner flies Just chlorophyll in grey skies Moss on steel grows slow and deep Moss on steel grows slow and deep Bryophyta holds the knight at peace Photosynthesis brings the wars to cease
