Elephant - Istar Bleeds lyrics
rate meA seven-spired temple rising in splendor<br />
The might of Istar in a sky of white gold<br />
The majesty of the holiest city on Krynn<br />
The chosen of the gods lost in their own light<br />
A clergy corrupted by Manifest Virtue<br />
Enslave and exterminate all evil races<br />
All contrary thoughts shall be punished by death<br />
For the Kingpriest to control the will of the mass<br />
The paranoid despot, persecuted by shadows<br />
Desires to rule in glory as the truth of Paladine<br />
The exalted ascent of his high eminence<br />
An insolent ultimatum prompted his doom<br />
Demanding in his pride<br />
What can only be sought in humility<br />
<br />
Now the true clerics have left the land<br />
The day of the Cataclysm dawns silent<br />
Calamity turns to chaos<br />
And the pale blue eyes of the Kingpriest reveal a weary frightened man<br />
Ripping through the sulfurous air<br />
A terrible resounding ruin<br />
Judgment came from The Ancient Gods<br />
When the fiery mountain fell<br />
<br />
Istar bleeds<br />
A nightmare of weeping, sadness and despair<br />
The teeming fields of summer lie shattered on the ocean floor<br />
Covered by the mercy of the waves
