[00:32.49]Like nothing ever seen before.

[01:01.68]Pale-horse rider come,
[01:04.27]Blistered by the morning sun,

[01:39.34]Jungle slashed and jungle burned,
[01:41.30]The monkeys and the painted birds
[01:44.26]Climb the vines, the limbs and leaves,
[01:50.61]The lungs that let the whole world breathe.

[01:59.03]All the ones that failed to thrive,
[02:00.58]Starved out and buried alive,
