Symphony X - The Bird-Serpent War/Cataclysm lyrics

rate me

Mocking the ways of Justice - the

Serpent's Dragon - Vultures ride

Storming the Gates of Seven - no mortal

man shall break our stride

Our flames engulf your good works and

our terror reigns supreme

Dark beasts that do my bidding by

thrashing, tearing down your dreams

"Gather 'round chosen people of the

Grand Design

Scorn the prophet's words - 'the device

of our demise'..."

The crumbling earth beneath the

weapon's roar -

Raining fire from shore to shore

Neptune's might - the storming waves

rise to make the Kingdom's grave

All all Atlantis cried - a million souls

crying out

Save the child from the Sea - she must

carry on

The secrets and technology shrouded

deep in mystery -

only One will carry on - Carry on...

"...the perservation of Balance was utmost

importance, and cast into the sea was the

child Ma'at, to find a new land...riding on the

breath of Poseidon..."
