1. An Atlantean Ode

In the depth of dark abysses
Lies the ancient in wait
Under the water of history
In the twilight of mankind
Watch the sun of darkness
Rise above the border
of our destiny
When the seven kings
Once again will rule
the surface of earth

Somewhere under the surface water.
Rest's the realm of ancient might.
In the ruins of the temple.
Burn the torch of Promethean light

The fall and rise of Atlantis
Are seen in the horizon of the sea
Listen to the shadow-choir
And the celebration symphony

Hymn to the lost continent
An Atlantean ode
Over the seven kings
And their sunken abode

Before the great sea
Stand on the shore
And watch the rise
Of the land of before

The old serpent of the depth
Rise from the paradise lost
To coil through landscapes
Which no man
yet have crossed

The seven kings of Atlantis
Return from their
long Odyssey
To restore the lost continent Out
of the ocean of memory

Hymn to the lost continent
An Atlantean ode
Over the seven kings
And their sunken abode

Before the great sea
Stand on the shore
And watch the rise
Of the land of before

3. I.A.O

[music: S. Lundgren, lyrics: T. Karlsson]

I penetrate the veil of O
To create, but I fail to go
Through the labyrinth of you
Break the secret ones concealed

An aura of hallucination
Appears out of my creation
Of the draconian nation

Ornaments of the astoning
Reveal the second coming
Of our secret longing
Isis unveiled
Apophis unsealed
Osiris revealed

Isis old invisibility
And her divine ability
Light the stars of fertility

Break the...

Abysmal forces of the snake
Make her burn
at the golden stake
For the oath she had to break

Osiris corpse reach it's hand
To take me to the hidden land
To find the pearls in the sand

Break the...

Isis unveiled
Apophis unsealed
Osiris revealed

4. Rooted

[music and lyrics: S. Lundgren]

Rooted into earth through
Love in hate we need
Rooted like a tree into earth
through hate in life we need

Shadowed feelings hides us
Along false glory
Justice as law,
break the order
Select your queen
(take the crown)
Select the leaf and let it fall
Into mud and dirt
Leave your child among the
dead bury it among your pain

Rooted into earth
through love
Love in hate we breed
Rooted like a tree
into earth through hate
On hate in life we feed

Leave your descendant
be your foe

Below your feet,
Lies something
you should defeat
Pain is your true friend,
pain makes you surface again

From mud alive,
it pushes you aside
Accept it as your true friend,
and to the very bottom descend
Rooted into earth through
Love in hate we need
Rooted like a tree into earth
through hate in life we need

Shadowed feelings hides us
Along false glory
Justice as law,
break the order
Select your queen
(take the crown)
Select the leaf and let it fall
Into mud and dirt
Leave your child among the
dead bury it among your pain

5. Seal Of The Bleeding Moon

[music: S. Lundgren, lyrics: T. Karlsson]

The bell tolls twelve times
And I hear a crack in the sky
With the eyes of an augur
I see the black raven fly

The seal is breaking
And the birds are crying
When earth is shaking
And the moon is dying

The stars are falling
Cause the end is coming
The moon is bleeding
For the sign of longing

The shadow of the universe
Make my sight turn black
The reaping time has come
And the reaper is back

Never before has the stars
Shone so bright
And been so very near
As when earth ignite

The seal is breaking
And the birds are crying
When earth is shaking
And the moon is dying

The stars are falling
Cause the end is coming
The moon is bleeding
For the sign of longing

The sun becomes black
And the heart is ice
The lovers turn to stone
When the black raven cries
