| Rising up the crystal dome
|
| Of life before the final war
|
| Breaks the waves of sea and air
|
| To save us from a deadly fall
|
| Coming up from far below
|
| Ocean floors unknown to man
|
| The Sentinel waited silently
|
| Until the time was right again
|
| Civilization’s seeds
|
| Sown so very long ago
|
| Almost ripened to their peak
|
| But how were they supposed to know
|
| Nurtured very carefully
|
| Guided on their preset path
|
| The Sentinel waited silently
|
| But his experiment went wrong
|
| The eyes of the world looked in fright
|
| To the seas ablaze with light
|
| And it moved ever closer
|
| Round the World
|
| Machines they all stood still
|
| Fingers reaching out as one
|
| Poised in fear obliged to kill
|
| Continents united
|
| Against the common foe
|
| The fist and last occasion
|
| But the fools would never know
|
| Alpha and omega
|
| The first-born and the last
|
| The vast dome of Atlantis
|
| Cracked and shuddered beneath the blast
|
| Sinking back to whence they came
|
| The young could not realize
|
| The original plan would now succeed
|
| Due to their selfless sacrifice
|
| The sea boiled again
|
| As Atlantis descends to its place far below
|
| Now the World has joined hands as one
|
| All the World now
|
| Join their hands as one |
