Mikkelsen: Bass Bastian Thusgaard: Drums Lyrics: The Ancient Gods Descend again Fly the reaches of the realm You’ve undermined Fever through the fields you’re fleeing Sinking in a shallow grave Hiding in the pits believing Prolonging forsaken Fate Our wrath Rain from above Titan, onward you lope Your means of escape A forethinker The blasphemer One paradigmatic leap Stealing fire One Must carry the torch Unrest A beacon of new beginnings Do you really want its blaze? or would you rather waste? and wane in darkness? would you rather waste And wait in And wait in And wait in And wane in darkness? Revenge Acend again You stole and gave to the realm You’ve undermined Olympian wrath Rise from below Triton, strike you at Sea no ways to escape Fever through the fields you’re fleeing Sinking in a shallow grave Hiding in the pits believing Prolonging forsaken fate Burning Heretic Your judgement waits The freethinker A nonbeliever The iconoclastic leap Stealing fire One Must carry the torch Unrest A beacon of new beginnings Do you really want its blaze? Or would you rather waste? And wane in darkness? Titan! to whom immortal eyes The sufferings of mortality Seen in their sad reality, Were not as things that gods despise; What was thy pity’s recompense? A silent suffering, and intense; The rock, the vulture, and the chain, All that the proud can feel of pain, The agony they do not show, The suffocating sense of woe, Which speaks but in its loneliness, from Lord Byron, in “Prometheus“ Stanza II Gods Descend again Fly to the reaches Of the realm You’ve undermined An idealist The betrayer The Promethean leap Stealing fire One Must carry the torch Unrest A beacon of new beginnings Do you really want its blaze? Or would you rather waste? And wane in darkness? Triumph where One dare defy Reemerge Carry your sentence to live Triumph where One dare defy Reemerge Carry your sentence to live Triumph where One dare defy Reemerge Carry your sentence to live Triumph where One dare defy Reemerge Carry your sentence to live
