about

Upheaval of nature as the industrial revolution and the Peterloo massacre take place

lyrics

Land, lost, beneath hard feet unrhythmic shod;
beneath adulterated bricks,
hard-quarried and unnatural stone,
Squared eye-unkind palaces of commerce, acquisition;

Beneath a black destroying slime of fumes,
and battered with a red and pounding blast;


Land; hurried over,
trampled on, ignored;
beaten down...



The hum and whine,
and clank and grind,

and trip and switch
and shuttle-click;
and thunder clang

in drab and dark
and furnace spark;
and sweep, and rush,
cascade, cascade all round and down,
and mine black tendrils
round ear coils
and drown sound down.



I will show wonders in heaven, and on earth blood...
Blood!
and death and widows;
and orphan cries;
and blood spilled fresh on Peter's field,

as August sun strikes flash and spark
from beating hooves, and fear's down-dash sabres.


Mother! Aah!


I will show wonders in heaven,
and on earth blood, and fire, and whirling smoke.
