paroles de chanson Carella's Ascent (Our Saints Are Dead) - Alyiria

"Alas the Saints are dead
All the stars are plunging down
The circle is incomplete
Prithee spare my kin!"

How much more will we have to bleed?
So that our widows and brethren cease to grieve
Sworn in we are to brandish the seal
That will mend the shattered skies
Imbibed with mighty wisdom we ride on
A strike to the heart of our fevered foes
To cripple and shatter the very foundations
Of the wanton hell that shed on this land

The same one that rapes mother Alyiria!

"Yer hornheads sit there unrivaled and jeweled
Whilst we sit here unfulfilled
I gather my folk and we'll hold a scythe to tear your clouds"

First there were a Dark that swoop in from the stars
And our rocky wastes were brutally penetrated
We were broken and then we were asleep
The chasm was gaping wide before our eyes
Unaware of the horror (upon us)

The swirl of the stars is awakened!
The dew of the night!
The beam of a waning moon!
(Bringing us into the doom)

Second, they were spawn, and they ravaged our home
The offspring of the vile Darkness now spilt over the scene
Nothing but a whimper then, but soon the roars would surge
And then the burning winds would scorch the world
Eight they were when Alyiria newborn churned with a thousand plights
They drank from a liquid unknown from their captive demon knights
Something stirred an unknown bleed now coming to form
Such energy hidden in secret from curious scry

This was the time when their circle was formed
The then dubbed "saints" and Lady Carella
Lady of the stars, the hidden from sight
The one that looked and realized the stars were eyes

Third there was war! And death began to rain
Our people were falling like teardrops in mass graves
Even the young children learned to brandish a sword
Even them were mercilessly bludgeoned till their head we're blown
"The knights rode on with no hope to hold on to
This was lost from the moment it was dreamt to begin"

But little they'd know the scene that unfold...

...In the depths of a somewhat tragic school
An unearthly plan began to be plotted
Under the guise of the knowing mages
The unseen school of Carella

"Even if I'm lurking in the shadows of this hell
I reckon my duty is true and mine alone"
Fire is raining above, I beseech thee, hark!
Do my bidding and we'll rid this world of the pregnant dark

Fourth, a light shone and there was finally hope!
The eight came from below with their rolled scrolls
Seven powerful souls it's what it would take
This is something known only to her

To do what it takes!
To call for beyond!
For something to hark her pleas!

For something in between the void that fills the night

A call that must not go unanswered lest men should die

"I saw you approaching year and years ago
I couldn't say that I was waiting, for I didn't think you'd be so bold
Ageless I am now, unlike you puny beings
Your life, death, eternity... Is just a little glimpse to me
Dreams I see, wild ones, such as I do like
Ambition. Fire. The will to bend the stars!
Oh I like it!...
Look at them fools, it's unknown to them
Their very essence, murky and disarrayed
Your very enemy is but kin to thee
Look at them! Look! They are already going insane!
Sacrifice is mercy now. I see what you're really longing for (Power!)
What? Repeat now. I want to hear again
(Power!)
Do we have a deal?"

Finally, I returned with a different gaze
Yet unaccompanied and, in a haze
We could not believe our eyes as the darkness was chained and pulled
To an unknown pit in the depths of where we are unsure
But there she stood. Our saints were dead!
But she immaculate unscathed
And the demons followed their baneful mother
It's the light of a new age to sprawl

"Even if I'm crowned in a land baptized anew
I reckon my duty was necessarily grim
Hell is freezing above, I now retreat to my exile
It's the light of a new age to sprawl!"
