Symphony X - Ⅴ (2000) by Symphony X (보컬) on maniadb.com

In articulus sic aeternus - Spiritus
donec dies fas
Dies Irae, Dies Illa - Solvet saeclum in
favilla

(Born) into the moment that is Forever -
To breath until that fateful day
Day of Wrath,
Day of Burning
All the world to ashes turning...

Bo
from the light - jou
ey into the
moment, delivered from thought and
sky
He will be one, one with the land -
Lord of wind and the sea and the sands
The one - The bringer of life

"All will bear a part of me - let this
hollow shell set your free to live as one"

Here we are - Children of Sun and Stars
the first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
prophets and sages - forging Utopia

Great Ptah - Khnemu - sacred priest of
the Temple of Ra and the keeper of
truth
Crystalline spheres, the power of light,
grant us keys to the stars and the
secrets of flight
’Five shall be as One’

"We unlock the mysteries of
knowledge and technology"

Here we are - Children of Sun and Stars
the first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
prophets and sages - forging Utopia

’We shall live forever, and cast out
those less divine
Gods we will be - rulers of the sea - in
our Grand design’

Here we are - Children of Sun and Stars
the first to know and to understand
Living by the Law of the Ages
prophets and sages - forging Utopia

Alone I walk
Among the twisting shadows
Tempted by the ancient magic
The power of five
My desire to mirror my own image
And I will offer you no soul
Offer you no soul

Tonight
Darkness will shadow the light
Symmetry divine
There's no force greater
Dividing the fathers of time

Feel my hate
I'm banished to this wasteland
My serpents plot
The overthrow of your temples and shrines
In the night
My army's rage and fury
Burning my shadow into the land
Vengeance by my hand

Tonight
Darkness will shadow the light
Symmetry divine
There's no force greater
Dividing the fathers of time

Tonight
Darkness will shadow the light
Paradise denied
The balance of ages
Forever lost in time

Was I sure of my fateful wish to evoke the night from the day?
Thousands now join as one, be afraid
What have I done?
Clouds are dimming the sun with his wrath of disease and decay
This masque of vengeance leads my death parade

What have I done?
My shadow burning
My shadow burns across the land

Tonight
Darkness will shadow the light
Symmetry divine
There's no force greater
Dividing the fathers of time

Tonight
Darkness will shadow the light
Paradise denied
The balance of ages
Forever lost in time

'...and there was a need for balance,
The coming of Ma'at...'

All we know, now has come undone
Balance lost 'tween the moon and sun
Hear our prayer, keeper of the sky divine
Upon us all, let your wisdom shine

Losing faith as the madness prevails
In us all we are searching for a reason
A need to calm the storm
In our sails let your winds be strong

Breathe the air around you
The oceans fill your veins and winds embrace your heart
Feel the change within you
The Sun and Moon align
The Grand Design awaits a new start

From the skies, looking down on you
Through the clouds tainted crystal blue
Such advancement, yet lacking the control
Unaware of your earthly role

Praise this child and the words of her rhyme
A sacred gift, magic of the five will bring you tranquillity
A new order of equality

Five senses come alive
Five reasons thrive
Five nations unite
Unite as one

Night and day will find a way
To keep the balance true
Let the sky and stars be your guide
The destination is up to you

Raise our heads up to the skies
Feel the essence of time
Changing ways like the shifting tides
In the waves hear the rhyme

'..unfortunately, not all were interested in the
Ways of Justice, and those of the Night
gathered to plot the elimination of the great
Law of One and the death of Ma'at. The
Atlantens harnessed the energy of the great
Crystals to create a weapon of immense power,
unaware that the power they possessed would
ultimately lead to their downfall...'

Endless sands of Atlantis - etched in gold, a city lost in time
and from the sea - A Child speaks of things unseen,
before the King - a teller of the Rhyme

Five align - hidden in the word a message locked in time
find the Key - it draws the final line
between what is and what should never be

Gaze in these eyes my child and see - here by my side,
your destined to be
Fears in the night flee with the Sun - if we are One
Kingdom of Gold I lay at your feet -
Ruler of Time and Space you will be
Rivers of Truth forever will run - if we are One

From the ruins of Atlantis, the Lord of Night rises from the sands
He seeks the one - his serpent's tail and twisted tongue -
a bringer of War - Destroyer of the Land

Five align - hidden in the word a message locked in time
find the Key - it draws the final line between
what is and what should never be

Rise my minions - from within the deep abyss
my disciples - thunder this necropolis

Gaze in these eyes my child and see - here by my side,
your destined to be
Fears in the night chasing the Sun - now we are One
Kingdom of Gold now lay at my feet -
Ruler of Time and Space I will be
Rivers of lies forever will run - now we are One

Lacrimosa dies illa,
qua resurget ex favilla
judicandus homo reus

'...tainted memories of Balance lost, forever
bury the truth of all unity...'

Now at my feet, the dying voice of
Balance - nevermore shall there be a
way to fly,
a way to fly on wings of Divinity, as
words of wisdom fade away

The Law of One will fade and die
The rising Moon will crush the Sky

So falls the Night - the darkest hour
Seek and find all the secrets left for you
Absence of Light - unbalanced power
Only then will you know

The hidden words - a piece of the
puzzle - Time will tell what will be
Between the lines, the past and future
you will find - the ones and zeros are
the key
to unlock what's sealed

The Law of One will fade and die
The rising Moon will crush the Sky

So falls the Night - the darkest hour
Justice lost - a travesty we must undo
Absence of Light - unbalanced power
Only then will you know

Awaken all from Set - Amentet -
Worship all that I represent

So falls the Night - the darkest hour
Destruction, death and war are in the
air
Absence of Light - unbalanced power
ruling all that we know

So falls the Night - the darkest hour
Unbound - what once was lost - now is
found
Absence of Light - unbalanced power
Only then will we know

'...curse the fools who look for answers in a rhyme
...I am the future, I am Montu Sekhmet'

A voice from the past echoes the fate -
A tale of all things yet to come
As it once was, so it shall be again
Modern day Children of the Sun
Seek the hidden rhyme and there you'll find
A new world order
Feel the mystery - so much to see through the
Eyes of hope
The Thoughts of Ma'at, forever secured -
Locked in the Ages
Goddess of Truth speaks eternally
From the depths of the pages
Seek the hidden words - as time unfolds
You'll find the answers
Feel the mystery - look to the Sea, under
Skies of Hope
What have we done? Can we right all the
Wrongs - the evils and fears, for thousands of
Years, that forever drain our vitality?
Can this go on without dyer consequence?
Our tragic ways, the end of days that shadow
The dawn of eternity...
He's taken form in human - likeness
And manifests himself in all our darkest
Dreams
Preying upon centuries of weakness
Feasting on despair and our own selfish
Greed
Bow down to me - (we will never understand)
Then take my hand and you will
See - (we'll see...)
You will see paradise - (a paradise?) - of
Pain and death
Awaiting for you all - (we'll decide the future)
Lost evermore the essence of truth, although
She tried in vein to bring us peace, it will
Ever rest in our hands
We've cried a thousand tears for all we had,
And all the things we could have been,
We must find our way again
Fools who looks for answers in a rhyme,
Seeking out a lie, an illusion
I am the future, the ageless mutation
Five beyond the skies align, Zeus to Ra - the
Final sign
My opposition's drawing near, feeding on his
Fear - tasting anguish
I have the power - the ageless invasion
Five beyond the skies align, Zeus to Ra - the
Final sign
From the Messenger on Wings, Peace and
War - a line of Kings...
Again the Titans clash on the edge of this
Earthen plane
Now from the depths they speak - echoing
From the wave
- From the Waves...
""Choose the way, five paths
There for you to find
Turn the page, the question lies
Between the lines can
We change?""
