Intro
Verse 1
In a distant bog
Dwelt the Sarraneem
Where Sairren governed from his throne
There did they gorge themselves
Upon forbidden flesh
While earthbound serpents feasted on their bones
Verse 2
For Sairren had seen
In the last battle
The Dragons of Prometheus make war
Pre Chorus
King Zeushin his plan defined
Gorthang’s honeyed words could not sway his iron mind
Defeat a risk he wouldn’t take
No hasty plans or dire mistakes
Chorus
On the plains of Fallowsgate marched a wicked horde
Death and ruin dealt by the armies of the Lord
While his warriors fought for the honor of his name
Dragons on the Eastern plain
Met with claw and flame
Verse 3.1
The wilding kingdom slew them
As they fled that winter’s night
The wise among the Sarraneem
Disavowed the fight
Verse 3.2
Those who still pursued their lust
Were slain in feral glee
Torn apart and mangled
By monsters of the sea
Verse 3.3
Countless winged predators
Descended from the skies
Enemies were shredded
To the sound of piercing cries
Verse 3.4
The hosts of Zeushin appeared
Grim fury closing in
A War of Heaven Imminent
Accalobain Iedolin
Pre Chorus 2
The firmament was shaken
As horror stirred the skies
All who saw it shuddered
Fled and hid their eyes
To the darkling caverns
Prometheans made haste
Faced with utter ruin
And no more time to waste
Chorus 2
Warriors of Prometheus
Strove above the clouds
Battle in the Heavens
With demons fierce and proud
Skyborne fires of conflict
Burned in wrathful flame
Fire from heaven scarred the ground
Oceans boiled and trees were drowned
Words cannot describe the sound
Earth consumed by flames
It was never the same
Interlude
Broken and rent was the world so that naught remained as it was intended
Dark Riff
Oceans were delved while others were drained
Mountains were raised while others were toppled
And lands were cast while others were drowned
Mottled with the putrid corpses of the dead and dying, glowered the ruined fields and forests of the world;
And fetid pools of baneful waters beckoned the thirsty with kisses of death
Supreme Dark Riff
So arduous were the cavernous roads, that each company believed that they were likely the only survivors. For this reason, each took to itself a leader
And some of these would become the remote sires of the great kings and kingdoms that would spread themselves throughout the lands: a chronicle of triumph and grandeur
Guitar Solo
Verse 4
All throughout the ages of their wanderings
Tales of gods and monsters they inspired
Conquering the other tribes
They built their towers tall
But Royal Blood was tainted and bemired
Verse 5
The Children of Prometheus made their cities great
Sairren burned with envy
Masule fumed with hate
Stop Time
Turn Around
Pedal Point
Chorus 3
With Natteley in ruins, king Zeushin looked out
Memories of Gorthang’s words filled his soul with doubt
All this war and turmoil came from but one source
That merchant’s honeyed words
In hindsight most absurd
He wished he’d never heard
Which steered him from his course
Chorus 4
Gorthang saw in chaos
A chance to reign as king
A chance to topple nations
A chance to pull the strings
East and north he hobbled
Toward a cursed hill
He raised his chalice in a toast
A parasitic ill sclerosed
Soon he would infest a host
And undermine its will
With spells of poisoned words meant to kill
