Lyrics:

The ones who didn't follow
now sharing this moment of grief.
The end of their own existence?
In death they had no belief.

Despite all the faith in their queen
they couldn't believe what they had seen.
What was the reason to this sacrifice.
Nothing is gained from this great demise.

And after the ordeal we know
that she has the powers to deceive us all.
But their dream of sons and daughters
has made them standing tall.

For the king had showed them that it could be done
when his woman gave birth to the sacred one.
But is she of man, made of flesh and blood,
or is she the offspring of the unholy God?

A leader was chosen to unveil the hidden truth.
The brave ones were gathered,
the strongest were sent to the queen.
Her reason to be must be known.

After many moons
the troops reach the temple of their majesty.
Guarded by a hundred faithful knights.
There is no escape,
there's no entry to her sacred halls.
Is our vision true or false?

They tried to find the answer
but they were led astray
into a maze of slumber
far from the light of day.
The riddle remained unanswered.
The queen could read ones mind,
make sure that none will find
the reason for her mission here.

The highness writhes in anger,
her trust had been betrayed.
The queen was filled with langour,
her decisions have been made.

She would unleash her hate.
Destined to devastate.

She heard her demons roar,
marching into war.

"But is she a man made of flesh and blood? Or is she the offspring of the unholy GGOOOOOOOOODD!" That part never fails to send shivers down my spine.

[Sumthinwitty]

This should be a movie, I swear

[madderbass]

0:00 is one of my favorite riffs ever!!! Damn, this is just a fucking masterpiece!

[Kronikk223]

GODDAMN RIGHT there is no dislikes on this video. If you dislike this then i have no idea how you got here with us in the first place. Dan swano is a beast, him, mikael akerfeldt, and steven wilson are my musical inspirations. One day i will records solo tracks of this quality as well.
