Rage - Lost in the Ice lyrics

rate me

[Music/Lyrics by: P. Wagner]

An antarctic land, deadly unknown

where we explored a mountain range

and on the highest ridge we found remains of buildings

like no man's eye had ever seen

A city forgotten on top of the world

and entry we found in a stonewall

and walked a stairway built aeons ago

to streets and houses covered under ice and snow

Walls that had mosaics with pictures and reliefs

faces that no eyes'd ever seen, l like half flesh and half of steel

they had headphones stuck to their skulls

no muscles, just wires, a technical pulse

The creatures look weird, scary and strange

the art on the walls, it told us their tale

They came from a planet lightyears away from here

to bring knowledge, truth and culture to this undeveloped place

the fathers out of space

Before life crept out of water mother earth was occupied

but the climate changed the borders, now they are lost in the ice

Now they are lost in the ice, lost in the ice

They build up life from desert and stones

Our planet grew up helped by elder ones

Then the ice came and they had to move away

to the middle earth and then the stories on the pictures ended

when they had left the land

Before life crept out of water mother earth was occupied

but the climate changed the borders, now they are lost in the ice

Now they are lost in the ice, lost in the ice

All their buildings, streets and stonewalls sleep in this forgotten place

but what happened to the creatures when they were lost in the ice

Now they are lost in the ice, lost in the ice

What a strange and awful vision for us all

it made us shiver to the bone

what if now some of these creatures still survived

in the caves under the Pole?

Before life crept out of water...

And then we walked beneath the city, hours and hours

when suddenly we heard a strange and distant sound

all I remember is my flight from this dark place

a flight from the alien creature's face, my ancestor from space

Lost in the ice

Whoever was these old remains, his blood is flowing in my veins

is flowing in my veins
