IMPERIAL AGE LYRICS

1. The Awakening

After ages in time
Finally a light!
How long have I been asleep
In the endless worlds of night?

I can feel you breath!

Awaken! Awaken!
Arise! Arise!
The Great Atlantis!
Now it is your time!

I remember my name,
But I don't know yours.
Is the world still the same?
Am I now on friendly shores?

I remember my name,
But I don't know yours.
Is the world still the same?
Am I now on friendly shores?

I can see your face!

I have knowledge of old
How to change the world,
How to possess energy,
And restore the dead memory.

I can touch your mind

2. The Legacy Of Atlantis

See the earth at the peak of it’s glory -
Days that are long gone.
The greatest empire of the ancient times
Behold the light so bright it blinds your eyes!

Atlantis!
Ancestor of Mankind
Those who have united
The earth under One Name

See the greatest city stand
In Anabiosis
What has once ruled all the world -
Mighty Poseidonis!

The great pyramids in place
Shelter us from danger,
We send ships to distant worlds,
Fearing not their anger.

We sped up the evolution of mankind
To see what we are capable of.

And gave birth to a handful of The Chosen

There is no time,
There’s no space, there’s no death,
There’s no life, no more fear
For those who have chose to adhere.

The divine will continue our job
When the Greatest of Wars
Has destroyed all that’s left
Of our world.

Our vessels in the sky
Built of living fibre,
What we’ve made will never die
In the Earth on Fire

Our knowledge, our lord
Safely locked inside those
Whose minds perish never more
Changing flesh as their clothes.

Time will go, the seeds will flourish in the soil
A new world brings a new round of the coil...

Some things never die, others do
We are like transparent ghosts to you,
But the things we’ve made have formed your view
You can ask your heart - we are true

There is no time,
There’s no space, there’s no death,
There’s no life, no more fear
For those who have chose to adhere.

The divine will continue our job
When the Greatest of Wars
Has destroyed all that’s left
Of our world.


Nothing lasts forever,
Even greatest treasure
Risen beyond measure
We induced our fall -
A matter of time.

All the new religions,
Mystical provisions,
Teachings, revelations,
All stem from one root -
Atlantic knowledge.

See the earth at the peak of it’s glory -
Days that are long gone.
The greatest empire of the ancient times
Behold the light so bright it blinds your eyes!

3. The Monastery

[Karina:]
Mother, what has happened to me?
I am not myself now
A male voice is speaking in me
I can not escape him!

[Horatia:]
Child, you are possessed!

[All:]
Firm as rock our convent stands -
Splendid isolation!
Here forever we shall dwell,
Sheltered from temptation!

[Avva Rama:]
We were destroyed in the morning mist,
As a result of the Fire..

[Horatia & Karina:]
Demon, begone, your place is in Hell!
Fiend of ill desire!

[Horatia:]
Child, I see your eyes are so red,
Your skin is pale and fragile,
Your forget to eat your bread
And spend your nights in prayer.

[Karina:]
Please, mother, save me!
[Karina:]
Now the voice speaks louder to me
Telling me tales of far lands

[Horatia:]
I've asked Rome to help us save thee,
The Exorcists are coming.

[Both:]
Cred in Deum Patrem!

4. Life Eternal

In the centuries when
You have roamed this Earth,
You have changed your flesh and minhd,

As the time goes on,
Dead are born again,
We have met on the other side.

Time is only another direction,
Everything has ended and has begun.
Let the multitude of your faces
All unite in a single mind!

Who completed their minds,
They die never more,
Their consciousness lives on and on.

In another life,
In another time,
The same person will be reborn.

Raise your head, you are now completed,
A divine creature you have now become!
Now your consciousness never withers,
On a new level you can come.

I have now passed to Thee
The Immortals' secret.
Take the Path that will make you free
From Sansara's sequence.

5. Domini Canes (March Of The Holy Inquisition)

[Dominican order choir:]
On every morning,
Your Grace rises the sun,
Our Holy Father,
Thy will be done!

No mercy show we
In the eternal fight
Vanquish the devils -
The fire burns tonight!

[Cardinal Gregory:]
I have heard there was a demon?
I shall send him straight to Hell!
Get me to the anguished child
She will soon be very well

[Monk choir (in Latin):]
Cred in Deum Patrem
Omnipotentem, Creatorem
Et in lesum Christum,
Fillium eius unicum.

[Avva Rama (in Proto-tongue):]
Zigurmo Ort Urriz Ubellit
Hag urrt, Uturamon!

[Avva Rama:]
I am not afraid of your spells!
And I don't believe in your god!
There is nothing a mortal man can do
In the face of a Double-Born!

[Cardinal Gregory:]
I'm familiar with the Orphics
And I know now who you are,
Either you give us what we seek.
Or the girl ends on the bar.

[Monks choir:]
Let us prepare the Dunking Stool,
And we shall see then, who is the fool.

[Avva Rama:]
I've seen perils greater than this,
Your own holy ass you can kiss.

Ukummi ort ell,
Vox ort eri. Yngumus!

[Avva Ramma:]
The more you talk to me,
The stronger I become!
It's time to go!

6. Love Eternal

- Seeing you, I feel joyful and warm
- As if I have known you all my life
- Distant memories stir in my soul
- How many times have you been my wife?

I approach the Tower Cold,
I conjure the Gates of Time:
See, behold two timeless souls,
We share one page on the World Scrolls.

In the world of insanity,
We shall be forever more,
In the realm of profanity,
To the highest lofts we soar.

Knit together in centuries.
Our souls go hand in hand,
Our minds bound in unison,
To the furthest realms extend.

- In all our greatest sorrows and joys
- We have always stood side by side
- Since ancient times you have been in my heart
- Even Death does not do us part.

Seams of Time, arise from the deep!
The Forgotten, come to life!
Different ages, different nations -
Our endless incarnations!

7. The Escape

[Avva Rama:]
Fight! You ignorant scum!
I will send you to hell!
You've been pestering long enough,
Though you have served me so well!

[Karina:]
Be no longer deceived by this tender shape,
Now I know truly who I am!
You will no longer contain me in these doors,
It is time to tell you "farewell"!

[Both:]
Despite our fragile physical form,
We won't surrender or fail.
Whatever happens in these stone walls,
The higher mind will prevail.

[Avva Rama:]
I don't ask you to kneel before me,
But don't you stand in my path!
If you live you'll never forget it:
A Mage of Atlantis in wrath!

[Karina:]
Now let's deal with them all and be gone from here,
There are so many things I must learn.
Our foes are in hiding and struck with fear,
And this place is soon going to burn.

8. Islands In Time

There's a place, that's hidden from all eyes,
Where we can stay, free from the flow of Time,
Where no seasons change, and the future
never comes,
Welcome to Islands in Time.

While the outer world
Is rampaged bu its fall,
Here its peaceful and calm,
On our little isle...

The millenia will pass,
And there still will be no change,
Greatest treasures we can hide,
Secret thoughts we can exchange...

With the power of Gods
We create our worlds,
Which abide to our laws,
Between the branches of Time.

As a loop they will stand,
Always again and again,
As our strongholds, hideouts
For Magicians' tired souls...

In the upper levels of the Limbus
We create a space of our own idyll,
No unrest, no tears, only cheer,
Only harmony, only peace in eternity...

In the times of unease,
In the furore of war,
Mankind's legacy's kept
Behind timeless doors.

Our knowledge has survived,
And Atlantis was not lost,
Our minds have been revived,
Branches of Time have been crossed!

9. And I Shall Find My Home

[Karina:]
I've been dreaming over millenia,
In the endless World of the Dead
Now I'm grateful to arrogant humans;
A new world is lying ahead.

[Both:]
Now we're free to find our way
For many centuries we are here to stay
Ancient Atlantis will be reborn
The new Earth shall become my home!

[Karina:]
I remember all we created,
All the knowledge is in our head,
We will teach the new generations,
Once forgotten, the wisdom will spread.

[Avva Rama:]
Where the Ancient Egyptians didn't remember,
Where the Orphics couldn't get it done,
Where the new religions chose to surrender,
We'll be ahead before we have begun.

[Avva Rama:]
Visions of my home are haunting me
[Karina:]
I can see all of them as if they were here in reality
[Avva Rama:]
Seas aren't the same, and the lands changed their shapes
[Karina:]
But I will find what is left from my time.

[Avva Rama:]
What lies ahead - even I don't know,
Forever young, forever ready to go.
The spirit of Atlantis will be forever alive
And we shall witness a new world rise.

[Karina:]
This new world is totally different,
Savage rulers are keeping it split.
But I'll go and search for my Homeland
And unite what's remaining of it!

[Both:]
Now we're free to find our way
For many centuries we are here to stay
Ancient Atlantis will be reborn
The new Earth shall become my home!
