歌词
[Intro]
A gentle breeze whispers across Laacher See,
In its depths, history softly speaks.
[Verse 1]
Nestled in the Eifel's green embrace,
Laacher See lies with a tranquil grace.
A monastery by its shore, in peaceful solitude,
A landscape calm, idyllic, and subdued.
[Verse 2]
Gas bubbles rise, a tale from deep below,
A caldera lake, from fiery times long ago.
Mammoths, Neanderthals once roamed this land,
Beneath the Eifel's hills, where ancient ashes stand.
[Chorus]
Not a supervolcano, just echoes of the past,
Laacher See’s quiet now, the fury didn’t last.
Twelve thousand years, the skies once blazed so high,
A mighty roar, yet not a final goodbye.
[Verse 3]
With the ice age's retreat, the great blast came to be,
The largest in the Eifel, a spectacle VEI 5 to see.
Yet on a global stage, it's a quiet little spark,
Two hundred times weaker than those that leave a darker mark.
[Bridge]
Ten thousand years of silence, a canvas blank and wide,
Where once Neanderthals painted, now myths in bytes reside.
YouTubers spin tales of doom that might unfold,
In this quiet corner, where the earth once fiercely rolled.
[Chorus]
Not a supervolcano, just echoes of the past,
Laacher See’s quiet now, the fury didn’t last.
Twelve thousand years, the skies once blazed so high,
A mighty roar, yet not a final goodbye.
[Bridge]
Prepared we stand, for nature may yet sing,
An echo of the past, a new awakening.
But beyond the Eifel's bounds, it will barely cause a stir,
Only here, within the hills, will the ground prefer to purr.
[Bridge]
Though the Eifel might again hear the volcano's boom,
It’s just the earth exhaling, not a spell of doom.
In many years, perhaps, the skies again will glow,
A mighty roar once more, but not the end of all.
[Chorus]
Not a supervolcano, just echoes of the past,
Laacher See’s quiet now, the silence will not last.
In future times, the skies will blaze so high,
A mighty roar, but not a final goodbye.
Not a final goodbye.
