lyrics

Phlegraean Fields
Music: TOT / Words: M. Seebach & I. Strimer


Verse 1:
banished to legends and myths
once burnt the reality, but tamed and enchained and strapped to the gate to oblivion
their quondam message ascent in reek, anguish and fright, today only acoustic noise
in ancient legends at home, godly messenger of horror, bringing death and decay, everything had to die

Chorus:
on their last journey they fly through dimensions,
on a divine mission with only one intention
one single dragon would suffice to change the whole world,
when humanity does wrong, he dives down with force

Verse 2:
he divides the sea in one fell swoop and the firmament crumbles with every wing flap
behind fire, ashes, debris and smoke, a new era of life begins on a stroke
his arrival on earth spreads terror, no earthly being will miss it,
wherever contact occures, everythings bends to the firestorm
his force moves mountains and rips the land bloodily,
the day will come, such an invader will again prevail, against the earthly forces

Pre-Chorus:
black smoke is his wings, escorted by thunder and lightning,
he breaks the atmosphere, expels the eternal shadows with burning light

Chorus:

Verse 3:
he rearranges all life and sets the biological clock to hour zero,
sterilised by life, the earth falls into a coma,
as happened millions of years ago, a new species will conquer the planet
the struggle of dominion on earth will be decided in the sky
and as soon as time learns to fly... only one dragon for a brand new world

Verse 4:
banished to legends and myths
once burnt the reality, the dragon symbolises the depravation of humanity
a fire from the sky will cleanse the world, as a cosmic bomb or technology gone wrong
when humanity does wrong, through fire they'll be sublimed, the giants of history return
and no god will help

Verse 5:
he divides the sea in one fell swoop and the firmament crumbles with every wing flap
his arrival on earth spreads terror, no earthly being will miss it,
wherever contact occures, everythings bends to the firestorm
behind fire, ashes, debris an smoke, a new era of life begins on a stroke
the day will come, such an invader will again prevail, against the earthly forces

Bridge:
his force, moves mountains, and rips the land, bloodily...

Pre-Chorus: Chorus:
