The continent of Atlantis was an island which lay before the great flood
in the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean.
So great an area of land, that from her western shores
those beautiful sailors journeyed to the South and the North Americas with ease,
in their ships with painted sails.
To the East Africa was a neighbour, across a short strait of sea miles.
The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of The Atlantian culture.
The antediluvian kings colonised the world
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas
In all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis.
Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth.
On board were the Twelve:
The poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist,
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends.
Though Gods they were -
And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new
Hail Atlantis!
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be.
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be,
Way down below the ocean where I wanna be she may be.
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
I wanna see you some day
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah,
My antediluvian baby,
My antediluvian baby, I love you, girl,
Girl, I wanna see you some day.
My antediluvian baby, oh yeah
I wanna see you some day, oh
My antediluvian baby.
My antediluvian baby, I wanna see you
My antediluvian baby, gotta tell me where she gone
I wanna see you some day
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, oh yeah
Oh glub glub, down down, yeah
In that ocean.
Wide eyed and deeper in your gaze,
And bluer than the bright that's in the cave.
There is a city,
Came out from you, Atlantis
In ruins, sunken below the waves
But in the city,
Where there is no one.
What's the point of being free, eh?
When there is nothing there to tie me down,
Oh, no more here.
The bluest city,
Covered in coral and coral,
On sea chests,
And sealed Jamaician tales.
There is nobody
To count the soldiering meandering whales,
With a shoal of herring amongst the sails.
But in the city,
Where there is no one.
What's the point of being free, eh?
When there is nothing there to tie me down,
Oh, no more here.
Chaos discontent I'm a lunatic
Thirty days in the street is how I'm doing it
A life of no money a quart of Cisco
The horses are loose I got mine let's go
The enemy would not expect an attack at this hour
The moon is a sliver the darkness gives me power
Come and find me I'm gonna be here
Come and find me I like it
Spent some time in a shelter down on Webster
you think I'm going back you must be joking
If I ever forget how bad it was to be homeless
I must still be high from the dope I was smoking
LAST NIGHT I WAS THINKING
EARLY MORNING DRINKING
THE DEVIL'S GOT WORK FOR
IDLE HANDS
Spent some time in a shelter down on Webster

Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, oh yeah
Oh glub glub, down down, yeah
Just a word all it takes to set it off
Uncontrolled all restraint has been lost
Absorbing more than I can stand
Of these self defeating unreal demands
Giving into frustrations command
The devil makes good use with idle hands
Overwhelming desire to react
I am too far gone forever turning back
Looking for something to lash out at
Turning inward it is myself that I attack
The anger grows inside everyday
Unquechable I have become my own prey
From where has this rage been spawned?
Been building deep inside for far too long
Forgotten memories buried and hidden
creating my own emotional prison
Can it be that i have lost?
It is cruel
The tricks we play
Only I could find my way
Do what you want to
Say what you want to say
Your unruly eyes
Ruly eyes
They speak
When there’s trials
So quiet
When there’s trials
Watch for idle hands
We need the tender care
Of useful things
To prepare
So bend the light to share
When there's trials
So quiet
When there's trials
Stuck to the dog, pissin' out both ends
I got a hundred lethal weapons that I call my friends
Ain't a person on Earth who could take my life
I wish they would so a man could get some sleep at night
But my design is a mixture of descent and decay
I see a monster in the mirror fucking everyday
Can a man ever wash his hands of blood?
Perpetual deja vu, isn't that enough?
Peel back the layers... and see what I've become
Satisfied? Now I feel nothing
Stay away - I swear it wasn't me!
See if you can relish if you close both eyes
Every time I make an issue of it, someone dies
Carried out like a hit man, set in stone
Don't know why I even bother to be left alone
In my opinion, it's a self-serving fucked-up phase
Got a picture in my wallet that I keep, in case I
Gotta go, gotta split, gotta make it to a higher level than this
But I could be wrong, what I say is wrong, what I really want to say is:
Peel back the layers... and see what I've become
Satisfied? Now I feel nothing
Stay away - I swear it wasn't me!
Run------ it doesn't matter,
I need all the miracles that I can gather
Run------ I can't pretend
I put myself in idle hands again
Here's how it ends, just a bit too soon
River deep in all the shit I let myself get into
Doesn't anybody like it here?
Blank looks, television drama and no fear
Let another person fuck with your mind
I bet you become the person who will fuck in time
Man I just stopped caring, the music is blaring
I feel you glaring, WHY WON'T YOU STOP STARING?
Peel back the layers... and see what I've become
Satisfied? Now I feel nothing
Stay away - I swear it wasn't me!
Run------ it doesn't matter
I need all the miracles that I can gather

Like a cheat who is running away
Seek it deep in the light
I close my eyes to see the light

I wanna see you some day, wanna see you some day.
Wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up, oh yeah
idle hands and bridled passions
muddled thoughts with good intentions
and don't you know there are things far worse than that?
i used to spell out all my problems in simple one-line declarations
and analyze my feelings for things in similar ways
this may be the finest thing
the finest thing i've found to date
but the bed is where i'd be all day if given half a chance
i used to spell out all my problems but kept them hidden in a bottle
and sealed the cork and sent it off and waited for a good reply one day
and still i maintain this grudge for people cuz' they're not like me
and there are several things that i think rank far worse than that
i used to envy all the people who cursed at things for useless reasons
and kept my dark side hidden in my pocket and i thought i had it made
Deep within the oceans depths lies a sight
you must behold
Time and time again the tale is told
A super race of human kind light years beyond us all
then disaster made the greatest city fall
See them racing towards the end
For them the sun son't shine again
Once this place was paradise before the great flood came
Man and beast in harmony the same
Waters edge now rises high, the time to flee is here
All their lives it's what they've learned to fear
Oceans of time will call into the night sky dying
Now hear the spirits cry, the great Atlantis rising
Oceans of time will fall into the black depths crying
Now feel the spirits fly - the great Atlantis rising!
Many seek the city lost to see if it was true
Not just some bedtime tale once told to you
A massive grave beneath the sea is all that now remains
An Atlantean escape was made that day
See Atlantis rising
See Atlantis rising
Stuck in a world of water and glass, ooh ooh
Of recycled air and years that have passed, ooh ooh
No one's gonna find us here
They don't know to look
No rescue is coming
(x2)
We took away to make our homes
Now nothing remains
From all of our hunger
We gave in to our need to own
So the tide in its rage, has taken us under
(chorus %)
We are waiting to be found
At the bottom of the earth
And frequently we'll send a melody
To the surface of the womb
Where our hope of notice looms
From the perfect place for all humanity
In the valley of the deep
Death is a stranger, with tricks up his sleeves, ooh
That we'll always need, but we'll never receive, ooh
No one's gonna find us here
They don't know to look
No rescue is coming
(x2)
I wanna see those gardens where I used to pray
Where I watched the sun come up and evening turned to day
Light never seems to find this place
This black is a permanent reminder that
It could have been any boy
It could have been any girl
But I'm glad it was me
I'm glad it was you
Met a girl from Austin in Dallas
Met a girl i won't soon forget her
Sat down to write her a letter i wrote this song instead
These idle hands they do the devil's work
These idle hands
They do a whole lot worse
I bet you've got a boy back in Austin baby
But I'm not asking
With pure innocence in heart she walks through the woods,
Her long coat embraces her like raven wings.
Cold steel in her hands, a red thin trace
Follows her steps through the snow.
In this cold world of hypocrisy she’s a true word.
Refr.
In the nights, one hidden place
His arms covered her, protected her
Forbidden love
In the nights, the silent nights
Ebony found ivory
A perfect fusion, unperfect end
Old tree-trunks hide the senseless tragedy
Of a young despaired girl
Only heaven cries
But life still goes on a few yards away
In the old grey abbey which was home
Now her lips remain closed and the white skin is cold
Oh look what condemnation brought.
He could not help her
He was already dead
Banned in a picture
I drown in bloody hands
as I bury the withers of human kind
Cold but fluid the spiral stygian tears
The birds once wept in waters still blind
Sombre the spectrum glows in the snow
Nothing but dust bleeds on your shoulders
Thine bizzare twilight - still asleep
but crimson scars echoes through silver seas
Unending - Still your God -uncertainly expands your tears
Dead rain falls unto saphire chair
Standing on horizon like tears in God
Dream in cold embrace - Desire what will be
Clouds in spirits of aeons drown in thy last breath
I drown in bloody hands
as I bury the withers of human kind
The sun crimson explores
me in mourning of her depature gold
The divine kind that drowns
in second art surrounds me
The horizon bleeds, the sun is dead
Look into the moonlight
Look into the sea
Look into the night sky
Look into a dream
Gaze upon a city
Standing ever so tall
No one ever believed
The city would fall
Once there was a sacred land
It's name struck fear in the hearts of man
And one day all ceased to be
Atlantis her glory was forever lost in the sea
Atlantis her glory was forever lost in time
Think of all the horror
Think of all the pain
Imagine the sorrow of the people that day
Civilization lost in one blinding light
What ever happened to the city that night
Will we ever find a way
To bring Atlantis back here to stay
We all will be homeward bound
Rising up the crystal dome
of life before the final war
Breaks the waves of sea and air
to save us from a deadly fall
Coming up from far below
Ocean floors unknown to man
The Sentinel waited silently
Until the time was right again
Civilization's seeds
Sown so very long ago
Almost ripened to their peak
But how were they supposed to know
Nurtured very carefully
Guided on their preset path
The Sentinel waited silently
But his experiment went wrong
The eyes of the world looked in fright
To the seas ablaze with light
And it moved ever closer
Round the World
Machines they all stood still
Fingers reaching out as one
Poised in fear obliged to kill
Continents united
Against the common foe
The fist and last occasion
But the fools would never know
Alpha and omega
The first-born and the last
The vast dome of Atlantis
Cracked and shuddered beneath the blast
Sinking back to whence they came
The young could not realize
The original plan would now succeed
Due to their selfless sacrifice
The sea boiled again
As Atlantis descends to its place far below
Now the World has joined hands as one
All the World now
Als Vermächtnis schenkte Poseidon der Meeresgott
Atlantis seinem Sohn Atlas
Dieser prächtige Kontinent erschaffen über Jahrhunderte
verschwand durch Übermut seiner Mächtigen an einem Tag
Weit vor unserer Zeit
gab es Leben und vielleicht
waren sie es, die die Welt formten,
wie sie jetzt ist
Unförmig liegt sie dort
wo niemand sie vermutet
Atlantis, dieser Ort
wo die Kräfte ruh'n
Mit Dächern pur aus Gold
war die Stadt bestückt und sie quoll
nur so vor Lebensmut,
denn die Struktur war gut
Welch edle Kraft
man durch sie erlangt
wussten nur die, die sie schufen,
da sie sie später begruben
Denn sie ist viel mehr,
als nur ein Traum
Noch mehr,
als all die Zeit
Zuviel
um es zu greifen
Denn allein
der Glaube bleibt
Weit grösser
als Verluste
Viel tiefer,
als der Schmerz
Die Liebe, die uns kennt,
als wär sie unser Herz
Uneinnehmbar war sie die,
die nachts strahlte phosphorgrün
Voll mit Energie,
man sagt sogar, sie fliegt
Felder bestellt,
beschützt durch Mauern
nicht Kampf um Geld,
kein Feind der lauert
Denn ihr Glanz war zu gross, viel zu gross
doch heute ist sie bloss,
doch heute ist sie bloss
Phantom unsrer Geschichte
wie einst Plato schon berichtete,
daß sie wahr ist und ne schlichte
Lüge aus dem Kopf
denn noch bleibt die Frage doch
denn noch bleibt die Frage doch
Denn es ist viel mehr,
als nur ein Traum
Noch mehr,
als all die Zeit
Zuviel
um es zu greifen
Denn allein
der Glaube bleibt
Weit grösser
als Verluste
Viel tiefer,
als der Schmerz
Die Liebe, die uns kennt,
als wär sie unser Herz
Noch mehr
als nur ein Traum
Viel mehr,
als all die Zeit
Zuviel
um es zu greifen
Denn allein der
Glaube bleibt
Viel zu gross
für Verluste
Weit tiefer
als der Schmerz
Die Liebe, die uns kennt,
als wär sie unser Herz
Viel mehr,
als nur ein Traum
Noch mehr,
als all die Zeit
Zuviel
um es zu greifen
Denn allein
der Glaube bleibt
Weit grösser
als Verluste
Viel tiefer,
als der Schmerz
Die Liebe, die uns kennt,
als wär sie unser Herz
Hi, hi, alright, hey, alright,

It's a rainy day reality
Base it all upon insanity
Future now will soon be yesterday
Finding trouble in our usual way
My Atlantis a million miles away
Getting closer, each and everyday
My Atlantis, my Atlantis
No ark nor a hidden way
Nor a hidden way
Democracy, hypocrisy
Bureaucracy and schmockracy
Feeding lies upon humanity
Selling short due to our vanity
My Atlantis a million miles away
Getting closer, each and everyday
My Atlantis, my Atlantis
No ark nor a hidden way
Nor a hidden way
Way to go
Is this quite the only way we know
Way to go
There wont be anything here left for sure, sure, sure
My Atlantis a million miles away
Getting closer, each and everyday
My Atlantis, my Atlantis
No ark nor a hidden way
Nor a hidden way
No ark nor a hidden way
Listen to the story that once upon a time
Somewhere in the ocean an isle appeared for a while
Beyond Hercules pillars the great and huge empire
Conquering every country big power on the sea
None will ever tell you where that huge might arose
Their glorious existence was not to last for long
Now that power is over they failed to beat the Greeks
Going back to ocean in a single day and night
Just one day of fatal misfortune
Volcano or Poseidon
Went mad about things in the world
They could not let it widen
Atlantis had to go
You know life is boring when it's just felicity
No pain or complications but pure simplicity
You live your life to full speed when you're sad and full
of pain
When jaundice and sick spirit go with you hand in hand
Just one day of fatal misfortune
Volcano or Poseidon
Went mad about things in the world
They could not let it widen
In een strandstoel zit ze daar
De weduwe van Dam
De handen stil, dun en grijzend haar
Weduwe van Dam.
Het is 20 juni half vier
De waterlijn schuift op
50 jaar van eb en vloed
Vergleden zonder stop
Ze zat hier 50 jaar geleden ook
In dezelfde stoel
En in de branding en het meeuwgekrijs
Hoort ze net als toen
Rita kom in zee
In een stranddstoel bij elkaar
Rita en haar man
Pas getrouwd, liefje noemt hij haar
De jonge George van Dam
Het is 20 juni half vier
En George die praat en praat
Hij vertelt haar van een oude stad
Die nog steeds bestaat
Want dat Atlantis ooit gezonken is
Hier vlak voor de kust
En in een grote luchtbel nu
Op de bodem rust
Al pratend staat hij op
De jonge George van Dam
Loopt naar de zee, hij windt zich lichtjes op
De jonge George van Dam
Vertelt dat daar beneden een complex verrijst
Een soort van watermuur,
Die coherent blijkt qua substantiegraad
In z'n atoomstructuur,
En dat de neerwaartse expantiedruk de lucht fosfatiseert,
Zodat de zuurstof in Atlantis dus
Het zout neutraliseert.
Tot z'n navel in het nat,
Roept jonge George van Dam
Ze goed moet weten dat
De taalconstructie van
Atlantis van de Grieken stamt,
En zo dus in 1 klap,
Aan de basis van Europa ligt,
En George doet nog een stap
Orerend over politiek, en de morele zin,
Van de ethica, het waterpeil reikt tot aan z'n kin
Met z'n lippen in het zout
De natte George van Dam
Explicerend zonder fout
Het zeeorganigram
Rita kijkt toe hoe de golfslag
Z'n lieve kruin verteert
Alleen z'n vinger is nog zichtbaar nu
Die druk gesticuleert
Ze ziet de oceaan zich sluiten
Om die trouwringvinger heen
Het is 20 juni, half vier
Rita is alleen
In een strandstoel zit ze daar
De weduwe van Dam
De handen stil, dun en grijzend haar
Weduwe van Dam
Het is 20 juni, half vier
En Rita richt zich op
Ze trekt de veters van haar schoenen los
Ondoet zich van een sok
Rokken uit, knopen los
Ze voelt zich niet eens moe
Er duikt een oude vrouw
There'll be no tomorrow if the final curtain falls,
As a volcano erupts everything crushes to the ground,
No one can hope, unsafeness panic blocks their roads and their paths,
Apocalypse is happening and nobody stands a chance
It's falling, it's falling
The final bell is tolling
The world is at its end
To wait for Atlantis to rise
Atlantis to rise, Atlantis to rise
An empire underwater to rise up from its ocean grave,
Through all this planet, witness kings who'll overpower any god
And we can't stop this power as it will invalid men's creations,
The perfect race, the perfect world to rise from the oceans depths
It's falling, it's falling
The final bell is tolling
The world is at its end
To wait for Atlantis to rise
Atlantis to rise, Atlantis to rise
There'll be no tomorrow
If the land slices from the sea
As an earthquake begins
Nothing and no one will survive
Everything will be destroyed
Nothing will be left to the fire
As evolution begin to gain
Earth will turn to fire
It's falling, it's falling
The final bell is tolling
The world is at its end
Singing neptunes, reaching fuller moons
as the heavens watch, jealous of you.
Slowly waiting.
Contemplating spinning off into envying you.
The window lends a view from panes afar.
Fires light the sky.
The dark looks so much brighter than the stars
as the comets fly.
Pictures that we've laid out today on the floor;
these things that take faith in the hopes we restore.
Old dreams are creeping their way in tonight
as the shivers fade.
It seems that the moon has brought more in than the moonlight
as the slivers play.
So breathe with me if a shooting star is nothing but a stone.
I never wandered down this road
I swear not ever before
Spare me the details won’t you please
It’s something we’ll ignore
Consider it done it’s now the latest
part of our decor
Whatever my love just promise me to never
mention that whore
Speaking of which may I remind you
that not long ago
you were the one who wanted a break
‘cos everything was so-so
Why’d you go and bring that up
that was crazy I know
I just thought that without a break
how could we ever grow?
But there I go again
I just want you to know
I should’ve never walked alone
through the woodlands of home
And I called out your name
but I just couldn’t flee
when them wolves
were coming for me
I remember very little
about that New Year’s Day
when we met inside a crowded room
and snuck away
All you said was ‘Follow me,
but keep your hands at bay
I will do whatever you want
Stuck to the dog, pissin' out both ends
I got a hundred lethal weapons that I call my friends
Ain't a person on Earth who could take my life
I wish they would so a man could get some sleep at night
But my design is a mixture of descent and decay
I see a monster in the mirror fucking everyday
Can a man ever wash his hands of blood?
Perpetual deja vu, isn't that enough?
Peel back the layers...and see what I've become
Satisfied? Now I feel nothing. Stay away - I swear it wasn't me!
See if you can relish if you close both eyes
Every time I make an issue of it, someone dies
Carried out like a hitman, set in stone
Don't know why I even bother to be left alone
In my opinion, it's a self-serving fucked-up phase
Got a picture in my wallet that I keep, in case I
Gotta go, gotta split, gotta make it to a higher level than this
But I could be wrong, that I say is wrong, what I really want to say is...
Peel back the layers...and see what I've become
Satisfied? Now I feel nothing. Stay away - I swear it wasn't me!
Run - it doesn't matter.
I need all the miracles that I can gather

I put myself in idle hands again
Here's how it ends, just a bit too soon
River deep in all the shit I let myself get into
Doesn't anybody like it here?
Blank looks, television drama and no fear
Let another person fuck with your mind
I bet you become the person who will fuck in time

Being set on the idea of getting to Atlantis
You have discovered that the ship of fools
Is making the voyage
And now you're going to have to learn how
To behave in a certain
You're gonna have to learn how
To behave like one of the boys
With hard liquor
And noise
Yeah, hard liquor
And noise
And the liquor and the noise
And the boys
And the ship
And the fools
And the trip
And the island
And the storm
And the wind
And the sails
And the sea
And the liquor
And the noise
And the gale
You gotta force yourself
You gotta make something out of nothing
And now you are
Being set on the idea of getting to Atlantis
You have discovered that the ship of fools
Is making the voyage
And now you're going to have to learn how
To behave in a certain
You're gonna have to learn how
To behave like one of the boys
Yeah, hard liquor
And noise
hard liquor
You left me standing here alone
And with this I felt rediscovered.
I’ll take a quick blast to calm my nerves.
Like a snowflake on your driveway,
I will fall for you,
And with this you will see this through.
You left me standing here alone
And with this I felt reinvented.
You left me standing here alone
And with this I felt rediscovered.
Watch me wade through water.
It was destruction (of our good name. I gave up all I
had)
To follow that sirens song (to follow that dream)
A partner in crime in this army of five
Riddled with such moral delinquencies
You fled in the night and left lingering, the pieces of
defeat
This is not about loss (my hands still shake with this
fear of truth)
This is not about you (and this fear of commitment)
It's because of you, that deceit never found her Clyde
This is the starting of a better chapter
With a new found fresh water and a taste for clean air
Rest your heads my friends, there’s a 48 mile climb
ahead
Feet they pound like thunder as we call out to your
archers
Riddled with such moral delinquencies (and she’s
hungry, oh she’s hungry!)
You fled in the night and left lingering, the pieces of
defeat
Rest your heads my friends, there’s a 48 mile climb
ahead
This load, it needs to be lightened and she’s hungry,
oh she’s hungry!
Take all of your memories…take it all…take
everything...
Yyyyaaaaaawww!
I've found this world crooked and depraved.
My hands have been washed in the blue ocean waves.
This is a battleground.
This is my song.
I will sing a song of hope.
I will sing a song of passion.
I will sing a song of love.
I will sing of Salvation.
And, with these feeble hands,
I will life You up
as a burning candle
to light the darkened path.
In turn,
make me the voice
that will bring the world back.
And we will shine like starts
And we will shine like starts
in the heavens
And we will shine like starts
Give me one reason
Not to stand alone.
Another reason to call this home.
I stand alone.
Stuck in the darkness
Of everyday.
You gotta keep me
From sailing away.
Sailing away
To shores unknown.
I need a reason
To drop this anchor down.
If you're not the one
Then I'll keep going
With promise showing.
I'll keep my searchlight on
To find my paradise.
Where I know I'm wanted
And I won't think twice.
So tell me now
Is it safe to stay?
If not somehow
I'll be on my way
(X2)
Just remember the times
When we promised our futures away.
To stay with each other
But just wait
Till the day that you figure out
That I've waited for a paradise.
Where we hold on
To each other with
No sacrifice! (x2)
If you're not the one
Then I'll keep going
With promise showing.
I'll keep my searchlight on
To find my paradise!
I thought you wanted
A planned future.
But I guess I'm wasting
My time on this.
Wicked land, where is the future, I will wander about the world
As long as I live or secure the objects I reach the heaven on this world or I die
[Chorus:]
I feel like a wonder - worker, I feel I could to change the world
I hope I am the chosen one and I'll bring the light to this land
I need to go by the mountains, by the forests, by the rivers and seas
I need to go that to search my life, escape from the death and seeking the light
[Verse:]
I create my own reality and it will be for other people
When I'll access to the end of my way I'll change the future of human beings
[Solos: Pajak]
[Verse]
[Solo: Vitt / Solo: Pajak]
No sympathy, sex and outrage, endless fights, people will never change
[Solo: Pajak]
A. prelude (instrumentaal)
B. prologue (don't know)
Don't know where they're going
Don't know why it's happening
Don't know why they're moving
In this migration so endlessly
Don't know where they're going
They don't know
I'm feeling the sorrows
Feeling their fears
Feeling their desperation
That grows so endlessly
Feeling their sorrow
I'm feeling
History has proved
Evil leads to tragedy
And complete disharmony
They had to leave their familiar world
To preserve it's reminisecence
For future generations
They don't know where they're going
Don't know what's happening
Don't know why they're moving
In this migration so endlessly
I'm feeling their sorrows
Feeling their desperation
That grows so endlessly
Feeling their sorrow
They don't know
C. the rise and fall (under a cloudy sky)
Under a cloudy sky
In the centre of the city
The seven temples rose up amazing high
Reflecting superiority in a famous past
People on 'sunsquare'
Are lounging in the marketplace
Where merchants sound the praises
Of their wares
Urging on their slaves to hurry on
Somewhere in the air
Without making any sound
Vimanas floating to the
Harbour of their land
Which piloting magicians only knew
All their neighbourlands
They were the victims of their eagerness
For getting a lot of gold and more slaves
Confronted with battles and cruelty
While time is going by
Among those tyrants
Disharmony is growing to an
Irrepable break
Caused by desire for power and luxury
An island unwilling
To obey predicted laws
By those tyrants was condemned
To disappear
Forces of nature were misused
D. theme of atlantis (instrumentaal)
E. the treat (suddenly)
Suddenly from the city you see
Glowing clouds of ash
As a sign that today
An island has been destroyed
Suddenly people gather on 'sunsquare'
Silent afraid and confused
Because tjey have so much to lose
They wonder why
Suddenly from the city you see
Glowing clouds of ash
As a sign that today
An island has been destroyed
Suddenly wrapped in a bright
White aureole
Already knowing thier fate
The wizards appear in the gate
There's evil here
Our land is condemned to die
F. destruction (rumbling from inside the earth)
Rumblin' from inside the earth
In frightening kings as well as slaves
In front of their panic eyes
Their world is fallin' down
The foundations of their temples shake
Earthquakes punish their pride
Rumblin' from inside the earth
Announcing eruption
Volcanoes spit their fire
Their vomit crawls down
And embraces the structures
That have remained
Hell fire punish their pride
Rumblin' from inside the earth
Is drowned by howling of the wind
Unchained by abuse of knowledge
Wind disperse poison-gas
The whirl winds ravage north,
South east and west
Scoring air punish their pride
Rumblin' from inside the earth
Increasing to a final stage
Neither king nor slave survives
And then the ocean waves
Take possession of the sinking land
Wild waters punish their pride
G. epilogue (don't know)
Don't know where they're going
They don't know
The people of this migration
Will live together in a land
Where the sunshine awakes
Forming part of the eternal
Undulation of the human race
An undolation forever
i lie in bed
beside him
and i know him
outside in
i've learned his body's
line and length
and memorized his grin
i've counted
every crease
at the edges
of his eyes
i know his soul's
complete circumference
i know
his lies
i know
his outer qualities
i know
his inner doubt
as i know the skin
underneath his shirt
i know
what he's about
i lie in bed
beside him
and unravel him
like twine
i know his depths his drives
his drawbacks
as he
knows mine
i heard they found
the lost atlantis
off the spanish coast
with a host
of hidden secrets
buried signs and symbols
green and guarded gold
and ghosts
i listen
to his breathing
and familiar
tho' he seems
his sleeping self
has wandered
to the regions of his dreams
while
off the coast of spain
the moorish moonlight beams
and deep
in guarded spanish waters
the green gold
gleams...
i lie in bed beside him
and i ask him
will you go?
he says i swear
i'll never leave you
i say
Wasted motivation has him on his knees
Cryin' a conspiracy dying of his own disease
Slow down brother well to hell I will
I'll never be beaten and I'll never get my fill
But maybe my mind's gone
So maybe I'll be proven wrong
But nothing comes for nothing you see
Cos there are no exceptions
No divine interventions
To stop your lethargy from lurking
And make your idle hands start working
Old dreams rusting right before his eyes
His heavy heart is bleeding
Himself he's come to despise
So sing us all a love song
Another like the last one
Keep it in your daydream
Your just another could have been
So stop your lethargy from lurking
You are the angel I am the astronaut You paint a picture of sunny fields Dreamin’ your life away
Let me up Water rising all around Laying with my head down in the past You know that I don’t stand a chance
Come on Atlantis Mmm-it makes me sad to think of home Sing me that song once more before We all die a lonely-lonely-lonely-lonely…
1. Z rozmlcenho kostela v krabici s kusem mdla

Tak vtiskl jsem mu do dlan lahviku od parfmu.

My idle hands
There's nothing I can do
But be the Devil's plaything, baby
And know that I've been used
Her lips are cold
They suffer me
They drag me under, baby
Into your suffering (hey)
Let your hands
Do what they will do
Stand inside
Make your Maker's move
And your eyes don't look the same
They seem enervated, in denial
Cast like stones
Like you been rode for miles, rode for miles
My eyes have seen
They have been shown
This is an occupation
To stand alone
I suffer you
You suffer me
We are the Devil's plaything
Into this reckoning
Let your hands
Do what they will do
Stand inside
Make your Maker's move
And your eyes don't look the same
They seem enervated, in denial
Cast like stones
Der Kontinent von Atlantis war einst eine Insel
die vor der groen Flut in jenem Gebiet lag
das wir heute den Atlantischen Ozean nennen.
So gro war diese Insel
da von ihren westlichen Ksten
die Seeleute mit Leichtigkeit bis nach Amerika fuhren
auf Schiffen mit bunten Segeln.
Im Osten war Afrika ihr Nachbar
nur wenige Seemeilen entfernt.
Die alten gyptischen Reiche verdankten ihre Kultur Atlantis.
Alle Gtter der mythologischen Dramen und die Legenden aller Lnder
kamen von Atlantis. Seine Knige regierten die Welt.
Aber Atlantis sollte untergeh'n
an seiner eigenen Macht und seinem Hochmut.
Sein Schicksal ahnend
sandte es Schiffe aus in alle Winkel der Erde
an Bord die Zwlf: der Poet
der Bauer
der Arzt
der Wissenschaftler
der Magier
und die anderen sogenannten Gtter unserer Legenden.
Doch da die Ahnen unserer Zeit es vorzogen blind zu bleiben
lat uns zurckschauen und singen und tanzen und Atlantis gedenken.
Denn tief auf dem Grund des Meeres
dort mag Atlantis sein
mag es sein
doch wir sind Atlantis heute
wir mssen uns befrei'n
uns befrei'n.
Denn tief auf dem Grund des Meeres
dort liegt ein Spiegelbild unserer Zeit
wenn wir nicht aus Fehlern lernen
sind wir Vergangenheit
Vergangenheit.
Denn tief auf dem Grund des Meeres
dort mag Atlantis sein
mag es sein
doch wir sind Atlantis heute
wir mssen uns befrei'n
uns befrei'n.
Denn tief auf dem Grund des Meeres
dort liegt ein Spiegelbild unserer Zeit
wenn wir nicht aus Fehlern lernen
sind wir Vergangenheit
Vergangenheit.
Denn tief auf dem Grund des Meeres
dort mag Atlantis sein
mag es sein
doch wir sind Atlantis heute
wir mssen uns befrei'n
uns befrei'n.
Denn tief auf dem Grund des Meeres
dort liegt ein Spiegelbild unserer Zeit
wenn wir nicht aus Fehlern lernen
sind wir Vergangenheit
