[Verse 1] Dust on the tablet stone Names carved in cedar bone A signal from the deep Woke up the buried kings They came with golden skins Eyes like burned-out suns The river held its breath When the old sky opened up [Pre-Chorus] Hear the drums below Hear the ground say go Every torch went low When the white lights rose [Chorus] Anunnaki arrival Anunnaki arrival They came back for the sky They came back for the fire Anunnaki arrival Anunnaki arrival Lift your face and stand The old world is alive [Verse 2] On the broken ziggurat Footprints in the ash Priests fell to their knees When the air turned glass They spoke in thunder tones Through the eclipse and smoke Told us what we knew Then forgot too soon [Pre-Chorus] Hear the drums below Hear the ground say go Every torch went low When the white lights rose [Chorus] Anunnaki arrival Anunnaki arrival They came back for the sky They came back for the fire Anunnaki arrival Anunnaki arrival Lift your face and stand The old world is alive [Bridge] If you know my name Then you know the gate If you read the signs It is not too late Under broken stars Under flood and flame We were made to wait Now we call them back again [Final Chorus] Anunnaki arrival Anunnaki arrival They came back for the sky They came back for the fire Anunnaki arrival Anunnaki arrival Lift your face and stand The old world is alive
