Album Lyrics
1. Prelude
In articulus sic aeternus – Spiritus
donec dies fas
Dies Irae, Dies Illa – Solvet saeclum in
favilla
(Born) into the moment that is Forever –
To breath until that fateful day
Day of Wrath, Day of Burning – All the
world to ashes turning…
2. Evolution (The Grand Design)
Born from the light – journey into the moment, delivered from thought and sky
He will be one, one with the land –
Lord of wind and the sea and the sands
The one, the bringer of life
“All will bear a part of me
Let this hollow shell set your free to live as one”
Here we are – Children of Sun and Stars
the first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
prophets and sages – forging Utopia
Great Ptah-Khnemu – sacred priest of the Temple of Ra and the keeper of truth
Crystalline spheres, the power of light, grant us keys to the stars and the secrets of flight
‘Five shall be as One’
“We unlock the mysteries of knowledge and technology”
Here we are – Children of Sun and Stars
the first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
prophets and sages – forging Utopia
‘We shall live forever, and cast out those less divine
Gods we will be – rulers of the sea – in our Grand design’
Here we are – Children of Sun and Stars
The first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
Prophets and sages – forging Utopia
Here we are (here we are) –Children of Sun and Stars
The first to know and to understand (the first to understand)
Living by the Law of the Ages
Prophets and sages (prophets and sages) – forging Utopia
3. Fallen
Alone I walk, among the twisting shadows
Tempted by the ancient magic, the Power of Five
My desire to mirror my own image
And I will offer you no soul, offer you no soul
Tonight Darkness will shadow the Light
Symmetry divine, there’s no force greater dividing the Fathers of Time
Feel my hate, I’m banished to this wasteland
My Serpents plot the overthrow of your temples and shrines
In the night, my army’s rage and fury burning
My shadow into the land – vengeance by my hand
Tonight Darkness will shadow the Light
Symmetry divine, there’s no force greater dividing the Fathers of Time
Tonight Darkness will shadow the Light
Paradise denied – the balance of ages forever lost in time
Was I sure of my fateful wish to evoke the night from the day?
Thousands now join as one – be afraid, oh
What have I done? Clouds are dimming the Sun with his wrath of disease and decay
This masque of vengeance leads my death parade
What have I done?
“My shadow burning – my shadow burns across the land…”
Tonight Darkness will shadow the Light
Symmetry divine, there’s no force greater dividing the Fathers of Time
Tonight Darkness will shadow the Light
Paradise denied – the balance of ages forever lost in time
4. Transcendence (Segue)
(Instrumental)
5. Communion and the Oracle
All we know, now has come undone
Balance lost between the Moon and Sun
Hear out prayers – Keepers of the Skies Divine
Upon us all – let your wisdom shine
Losing faith as the madness prevails
In us all we are searching for a reason, a need to calm the storm
In our sails – let your winds be strong
Breathe the air around you
The oceans fill your veins and winds embrace your heart
Feel the change within you
The Sun and Moon align
The Grand Design awaits a new start
From the skies, looking down on you
Through the clouds tainted crystal blue
“Such advancement, yet lacking the control
So unaware of your earthly roles”
Praise this child and the words of her rhyme
A sacred gift – magic of the Five will bring you tranquility
A new order of equality…
Five senses come alive
Five reasons thrive
Five nations unite, unite as one
Night and Day will find a way to keep the Balance true
Let the Sky and Stars be your guide – the destination is up to you
Raise our heads up to the Skies
Feel the essence of Time
Changing ways like the shifting tides
In the waves hear the Rhyme
6. The Bird-Serpent War / Cataclysm
Mocking the ways of Justice – The Serpent’s Dragon – Vultures ride
Storming the Gates of Seven – no mortal man shall break our stride
Our flames engulf your good works and our terror reigns supreme
Dark beasts that do my bidding by thrashing, tearing down your dreams
“Gather ‘round chosen people of the Grand Design
Scorn the prophet’s words – ‘the device of our demise’…”
Oh…
The crumbling earth beneath the weapon’s roar – raining fire from shore to shore
Neptune’s might – the storming waves rise to make the Kingdom’s grave
All the Atlantis cried (a million souls crying out)
Save the child from the Sea (she must carry on)
The secrets and technology shrouded deep in mystery (only one will carry on)
Carry on…
7. On the Breath of Poseidon (Segue)
(Instrumental)
8. Egypt
Endless sands of Alnantees – etched in gold, a city lost in time
And from the Sea – a child speaks of things unseen, before the King – a teller of the Rhyme
(Five align… hidden in the word a message locked in time)
(Find the Key… it draws the final line between what is and what should never be)
Gaze in these eyes my child and see – here by my side, you’re destined to be
Fears in the night flee with the Sun – if we are One
Kingdom of Gold I lay at your feet – ruler of Time and Space you will be
Rivers of Truth forever will run – if we are One
From the ruins of Atlantis, the Lord of Night rises from the sands
He seeks the one – his serpent’s tail and twisted tongue
A bringer of War – destroyer of the land
(Five align… hidden in the word a message locked in time)
(Find the Key… it draws the final line between what is and what should never be)
“Raise my minions – from within the deep abyss
My disciples – thunder this necropolis”
Gaze in these eyes my child and see – here by my side, you’re destined to be
Fears in the night chasing the Sun – now we are One
Kingdom of Gold now lay at my feet – ruler of Time and Space I will be
Rivers of Lies forever will run – now we are One
9. The Death of Balance / Lacrymosa
Lacrimosa dies illa,
qua resurget ex favilla
judicandus homo reus
10. Absence of Light
Now at my feet, the dying voice of Balance
Nevermore shall there be a way to fly, a way to fly on wings of Divinity, as words of wisdom fade away
The Law of One will fade and die
The rising Moon will crush the Sky
(So falls the Night, the darkest hour)
Seek and find all the secrets left for you
(Absence of Light, unbalanced power)
Only then will you know, oh…
The hidden words – a piece of the puzzle
Time will tell what will be
Between the lines, the past and future you will find
The ones and zeros are the key to unlock what’s sealed
The Law of One will fade and die
The rising Moon will crush the Sky
(So falls the Night, the darkest hour)
Justice lost – a travesty we must undo
(Absence of Light, unbalanced power)
Only then will you know
“Awaken all from Set-Amentet – worship all that I represent”
(So falls the Night, the darkest hour)
Destruction, death and war are in the air
(Absence of Light, unbalanced power)
Ruling all that we know
(So falls the Night, the darkest hour)
Unbound – what once was lost – now is found
(Absence of Light, unbalanced power)
Only then will we… know!
11. A Fool’s Paradise
What’s become of the world – the colors unfurl revealing a blackened haze
Conditioned to fear the voice that we hear – calling an end of days
Millions of souls under control like pawns to a king, led by a string, to the final hour
Oh… Empire of the Sea, Lords of technology that fell into the void
Oh shall it be (oh shall it be) as it was before – a tragedy on every shore?
Is this the end of all we know – innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams – the darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war – we can’t go on like this anymore
Living like fools – chaos will rule this eternal paradise
Death by design, altering birth – trends of the modern age
The wisdom of life erased from the Earth – in a reckless rampage
Oh… Empire of the Sea, Lords of technology that fell into the void
Oh shall it be (oh shall it be) as it was before – a tragedy on every shore?
Is this the end of all we know – innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams – the darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war – we can’t go on like this anymore
Living like fools – chaos will rule this eternal paradise
(Dies Irae, Dies Illa, Solvet Saeclum in favilla)
(Decades of greed, plague, famine and war – we can’t go on like this anymore)
(Living like fools – chaos will rule this eternal paradise)
Is this the end of all we know – innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams – the darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war – we can’t go on like this anymore
Lost in the Night, fading from sight – is this the final setting sun? Oh…
12. Rediscovery (Segue)
(Instrumental)
13. Rediscovery (Part II) – The New Mythology
A voice from the past echoes the fate
A tale of all things yet to come
As it once was, so it shall be again
Modern day Children of the Sun
Seek the hidden rhyme and there you’ll find a new world order
Feel the mystery – so much to see through the eyes of hope
The thoughts of Ma’at, forever secured, locked in the Ages
Goddess of Truth speaks eternally from the depths of the pages
Seek the hidden words as time unfolds
You’ll find the answers
Feel the mystery – look to the Sea, under Skies of Hope
What have we done? Can we right all the wrongs
The evils and fears, for thousands of years, that forever drain our vitality?
Can this go on without dyer consequence?
Our tragic ways, the end of days that shadow the dawn of eternity…
He’s taken form in human-likeness
And manifests himself in all our darkest dreams
Preying upon centuries of weakness
Feasting on despair and our own selfish greed
Bow down to me (we will never understand)
Then take my hand and you will see (we’ll see)
You will see paradise (a paradise?) of pain and death
Awaiting for you all (we’ll decide the future)
Lost evermore the essence of truth
Although she tried in vein to bring us peace
It will ever rest in our hands
We’ve cried a thousand tears for all we had
And all the things we could have been
We must find our way again, oh
Fools who looks for answers in a rhyme, seeking out a lie, an illusion
I am the future, the ageless mutation
Five beyond the skies align, Zeus to Ra – the final sign
My opposition’s drawing near, feeding on his fear, tasting anguish
I have the power, the ageless invasion
Five beyond the skies align, Zeus to Ra – the final sign
From the Messenger on Wings, Peace and War – a line of Kings
Again the Titans clash on the edge of this earthen plane
Now from the depths they speak, echoing from the waves
Oh… from the Waves…
Choose the way, five paths there for you to find
Turn the page, the question lies between the lines
Will me? Will you? Oh…
Can we? Can you? Can we change?
(Oh…)
