Tarawera (Burnt Spear) Lyrics


Witness the floating, omen of doom

Punished for all they, did consume

Awoken by tremors, molten rock

Sight to behold, frozen with shock

Column of smoke, 10k high

Dawn was thick, blackened sky

Trapped burnt in their homes

Destroyed beyond their control

Mother nature has overthrown

Once families, now turned to stone

Hell spews forth from silent beast

Sanctuary wont come from prayer or priest

Column of smoke, 10k high

Dawn was thick, blackened sky

Trapped burnt in their homes

Destroyed beyond their control

Sky lit up, great flashes of flame

The omen, the curse, the shame

Witness the floating, omen of doom

Punished for all they, did consume

Column of smoke, 10k high

Dawn was thick, blackened sky

Trapped burnt in their homes

Destroyed beyond their control

The mass destruction

Lasted six hours

The mouth of magma

Spills and devours
