Once upon a time way back in ancient days Dark forces the initial crime kicked off a dramatic race Fate never turned - human's search for Troy began But mankind had to learn that life will always be like that again
There was a time it was this planet's youth There was no fear no liar's rhyme - and God was happy, too But then fate turned entry the universal spirit's ban all humans had to learn that life is a torture again and again
In ancient times God created mystery The search for meaning and the planet's destiny But magic forces crossed the deceiver's noble thoughts The betrayal of Judas opened Beelzebub God's sacred halls
In ancient times God created mystery The search for meaning and the planet's destiny But then a thunderstorm struck the saviour's light Noble souls were dying out and Satan's disciples took their ride
[chorus] Born under a bad sign - when life has gone and fate has come Millennium of mysteries - don't turn back or you'll be dead
[1000] Christians in the Middle East, William concers the British seas Scolasm, heresy and inquisition, battles, bans and malnutrition
[1100] Medieval life and its defects, formation of so many sects Battles, death and brutal fights and the first noble knights
[1200] Grand buildings gorgeous works of noble art The Magna Charta gets in many people's heart Knighthood and nobility, Genghis Khan and destiny
[1300] Black death diminishes the number of believers Revenge of God or triumph for all deceivers Universities are forming but churches powers are mourning The Great Schism leads to other mysteries
[1400] Mysticism gets unfold so whose power will behold New territories found but many cities burning down Reconquista and New World, Hundred Year's War and old hurt Exit middle ages, enter new catastrophes
[1500] A new age begins but the problems stay the same The rich are getting richer but all the others live in shame The tide is turning new ideas but noone's learning Rage in people's hearts and a new mad rush starts
[1600] The globe is being conquered but Spain is in decline The Thirty Years War makes the evil's eyes shine Baroque and absolutism, confusion and idiotism There has never been a scarier time
[Chorus]
What is the mystery behind all these deceptions? Truth or lie - did it all really happen? Or did some spirit fool people's little minds? Is this collection a grotesque of many kinds?
[1700] The New World becomes independent The French Revolution is triumphant New powers from the East invade But who has really gained some state?
[1800] Victoria and communism, opium war and imperialism The road to hell is clearly drawn on the universal spirit's mission
[1900] World War One, hell has come and nobody's soul is left undone World War Two, the last taboo Atomic Age and Cold War, too!
[Chorus]
[2000] So the millennium has gone, but tell me what have we really won? The next millennium is about to begin So be prepared and let some new mysteries in...
