Dances of Death |
B) Eruption |
C) Beyond The Gates |
Time — passing as the world |
changed its face |
Past — all that used to be not a trace |
Now — all that was is gone |
can’t you see |
Always questions |
What — happened to our world |
different now |
Why — answers can’t be found |
tell me now |
Now — dissolution is all I see |
As I meandered this world I saw strange faces |
I’ve seen some gastly bizarre phenomenon |
Such desolation and pain I can’t describe it |
But always something was there that led me on |
Never saw a place like this |
How can such a place exist |
Brotherhood of happiness |
Inviting me I can’t resist |
How can such a thing exist |
Inviting me I can’t resist |
Never saw a place like this |
Never saw a … |
The priests gave us reason |
Brought hope to our season |
They gave us the will to survive |
It’s healthy and clean here |
It’s just like a dream here |
Just thank the priests you’re alive |
I had a vision — then it was gone |
Something there I just can’t put my finger on |
Crys — from the other side |
calling me |
Lies — message from beyond |
curse the priests |
Why — I don’t understand |
Share the feast |
Cataclysmic |
Dark — figures in the midst |
help denied |
Death — tightening it’s fist |
no reply |
Rage — tell me what is this |
paradox |
And as the people all dance in celebration |
They seem so happy and so preoccupied |
Somehow I don’t understand this fascination |
I think it all will be clear when I’m inside |
Where did all these priests come from |
What kind of men have you become |
Serve and never question why |
Worship Talons from the sky |
What lies beyond the golden gate |
A journey of uncertain fate |
Serve and never question why |
Serve and never question why |
Question why |
It’s nicer than nice here |
A real paradise here |
It’s really too good to believe |
There’s growing in knowing |
And that’s where I’m going |
The gates are prepared to receive, |
receive … me |
D) Outburst |
E) Days Of Betrayal |
Gates far behind |
Priests out of mind |
Endless the night |
Nocturnal flight |
Eyes in the dark |
Wait for the spark |
Waste everywhere… |
Peril in sight |
Pray for the light |
Phantoms in black |
Mutants attack |
Bareskin and bone |
Hunger the hone |
No apathy |
For what I see |
The tunnel in the mountainside |
Looks like a place to hide |
Descending into darkness now |
A chamber deep inside |
Days of betrayal |
Days of betrayal |
Days of betrayal |
Days of |
Automaton |
Screen coming on |
Ancient machines |
What does it mean |
Bio chip here |
Message of fear |
Shocking the view |
Morbid and true |
A chance to save the human race |
Chaos we can avoid |
A mighty power out of place |
That has to be destroyed |
Days of betrayal |
Days of betrayal |
Days of betrayal |
The end of the begining of, |
What is but never really was |
Now press on and go beyond |
I could try a million times, |
And cry until the end of time |
But it won’t cange a thing |
F) Restless |
G) Sanctuary |
Don’t believe all that you see |
'Cause it can never be |
Truth could be there in disguise |
So never trust your eyes |
Wandering aimless through time |
Wondering what I will find |
So many years on my own |
No place I can call home |
A dome upon the hill — stare |
What can that builing be — sound |
I hear a melody — look |
That’s my philosophy — wait |
The truth is for the brave — and |
It’s like a tidal wave now |
Entities all dressed in white |
No end in sight |
Some giants, some little ones |
Where are they from |
Packed inside this mega-dome |
Why have they come |
Where are all these giants from |
Why have they come |
My eyes are playing tricks on me |
These things I really can’t believe |
They’ve got the heads of human men |
And the bodies of machines |
