A Fool's Paradise - V: The New Mythology Suite (2000) Progressive Power metal/ USA
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 who fell into the void Oh shall it be as it was before - 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 as it was before - 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
(solo)
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war We can't go on like this anymore Living like fools Chaos will rule 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?
