A throne is the seat of state of a potentate or dignitary, especially the seat occupied by a sovereign on state occasions; or the seat occupied by a pope or bishop on ceremonial occasions. "Throne" in an abstract sense can also refer to the monarchy or the Crown itself, an instance of metonymy, and is also used in many expressions such as "the power behind the throne".
Thrones were found throughout the canon of ancient furniture. The depiction of monarchs and deities as seated on chairs is a common topos in the iconography of the Ancient Near East.
The word throne itself is from Greek θρόνος (thronos), "seat, chair", in origin a derivation from the PIE root *dher- "to support" (also in dharma "post, sacrificial pole"). Early Greek Διὸς θρόνους (Dios thronous) was a term for the "support of the heavens", i.e. the axis mundi, which term when Zeus became an anthropomorphic god was imagined as the "seat of Zeus". In Ancient Greek, a "thronos" was a specific but ordinary type of chair with a footstool, a high status object but not necessarily with any connotaions of power. The Achaeans (according to Homer) were known to place additional, empty thrones in the royal palaces and temples so that the gods could be seated when they wished to be. The most famous of these thrones was the throne of Apollo in Amyclae.

Plot
In Bucharest, Allison is protecting the mysterious bible, "The Prophet Lexicon", where the last chapter about the apocalypse, called Revelations, discloses the name of the Antichrist in its last page. Meanwhile, the evil and jealous leader of the renegade angels Thrones, Stark, forces the hit-man Dylan to kill Allison to get the information about the Antichrist, but Dylan mysteriously feels attracted by the woman, protecting her against the Thrones. Allison seeks John Reigart for help, but Satan tell her that he is interested in the apocalypse to gather millions of souls to Hell. Alone and betrayed, Allison discloses the truth about her origins, while protecting the Lexicon.

John Reigart: [holds up Twinkie packet] I have a weakness for these things.::Allison: Maybe it's the angel-food cake.::John Reigart: [pause] God forbid.
John Reigart: [first line of the movie] The last chapter of the Bible is called Revelations. It promises the end of life as we know it. If that's the case, you might want to ask yourself: Is that really such a good thing?
Allison: I need you to help me.::John Reigart: Are you sure?::Allison: You helped me the last time.::John Reigart: I protected you from one of my own for my own reasons. That's all.::Allison: I thought...::John Reigart: [interrupts] A word of advice. Don't ever assume you know my motives. Ever.
Allison: It's a nightmare. A crazy dream. Any minute you're going to wake up, Allison. You're going to wake up and this whole thing is gonna be over.::John Reigart: Careful, Allison. People might think you're crazy.::John Reigart: [looking out at park] I love this park. Perverts and lunatics everywhere. I'm like a kid in a candy store.::Allison: Something tells me you're not out here trawling for new recruits.::John Reigart: Who knows? Maybe I'm trawling for you.
John Reigart: You look remarkably stylish for a marked woman.::John Reigart: How are we sleeping these nights?::Allison: Sleep's not real big on my to-do list right now.::John Reigart: Demagogues, martyrs, schizophrenics... they all tend to run toward insomnia.
Allison: Whatever you're looking for, you won't find it if I'm dead.::Dylan: I work for a boss who prefers to extract secrets from corpses. They tend not to lie so much.
Stark: You've memorized her morning routine,::Dylan: She wakes at 6:45, puts on the coffee at 6:50 and showers at 6:53. She soaps herself from the toes up- which is a little strange, actually, because, when you think about it, most people lather from the neck down.::Stark: A man who relishes his work.
John Reigart: Politics of Angels you see are not so very different from those of men. Both have rules to follow, codes of conduct, laws. Both for example have constraints regarding murder.And ways to get around those constraints.::Allison: Hired assassins.::John Reigart: But it would seem that the preferred option is no longer in play. You have in parlance of the CIA turned their chief asset. Your new friend: Dylan.
Maria: Don't give it to them, even if they tear you apart.
Allison: So by protecting the Lexicon I'm doing the Devil's work... aren't I?::John Reigart: Sometimes the interests of Heaven and Hell are not so very different, Allison. Get used to it.
Plot

John Riegert: [first line in the movie] I'm here to find one lost soul. I have no interests in tyrants or heros. Rather I prefer the lives of smaller men. The ones left behind.
John Riegert: He's lying. He can't touch you.::Allison: How do I know that?::John Riegert: Because this house, forgive the overused metaphor is Hell on Earth. It was ceded to me by virtue of the deeds commited here which makes it my domain. My house. My rules.::Allison: What about you?::John Riegert: I don't want the book. It repulses me.

Wake and you’ll be running back to me
An endless game of hide and seek
Now watch these people disappear
Oh no…
When we all reach a compromise
A myth from where we are derived
Taking all our strength to gain
The illusions of a modern fame
The necromancy of
I’ve never seen such a valor. But I will never die.
Reach for the stars
But I’m a legend and I will never die.
All is lost in our lives, we have conquered it all
Witches in the sky!!
You’ve surrendered yourself, surrendered your true love.
Witches in the sky, witches in the sky!!
When we all reach a compromise.
In every fucking day
A myth from where we are derived
For our existence
Taking all our strength to gain.
In every single way
The illusions of a modern fame.
The necromancy of
All is lost in our lives, we have conquered it all
Witches in the sky!!
You’ve surrendered yourself, surrendered your true love.
They’re drowning me in fear and I’m sinking down
I’ve been lost in the shadows of my own reflection.
And like an exhausted campaign we’re sinking down.
Trains, Trains, we’re moving in formations like
Trains, Trains, all our life predicted like
Trains, Trains, we serve as one purpose like
Trains, Trains, running around like trains.
Take two steps away from me
or this will be your last day.
Your time is running out
So clap your hand like this
Come on
What’s the point of finding out, when you turned out for something more and
All that filled your mind was thoughts of sex and violence fuel for war.
Resurrect the innocent our fighting force for self defense but
You can quit I’ll meet you at the gates of hell.
Down on the waterfront he walked the pier alone alone.
The victim was noticed too late he’d given up the ghost.
And when the tide came in no one had known he had been
Down on the waterfront he walked the pier alone.
Turn down the cross upon the steeple I will come.
Revenge the loss of our fallen brothers.
Find a way to hide.
Cause I am never gonna stop the hunt. I got a taste for iron blood.
Standing closer to the edge, Watch the wreckage sink again
Hold my hand its your demise, Another game to compromise
Your to blame, how could I remain the same? When its such a different
Game we play. Open doors are such a trend this day in age.
Derived from the darkest of nights. They’re searching for a more reptilious creature.
It will take your life. The watcher of an all descending future.
So blind to my mind this dance has nothing left for me. If only you could hold me closer I’ll be free.
What would you do if I took it all away?
How could you say that we never meant to be?
Sea is shaping, Where’s my knife? All I see is a bright light.
She is coming, hold it tight. Hear the call, no prayers tonight
Now is your time to shine, Lets go baby
Now is your time to rise, Lets go baby
Now is your time to fight, Lets go baby
How can they realize, Lets go baby
Drive me crazy, Lets go baby
Drive me crazy, Lets go
Never watch me call out her name. Faltered from these hips of shame
Lets go for another dawning age. Faltered from these hips of shame
Find a new way to hide
The day is night and has said its goodbyes
Fear the man made of wolf
Oh shit oh no
You’ll find us, You’ll find us,
In the thickness
Of the woods
This is not the end
We’ll fight for our revenge
A darkened night reflects on our regrets
Their insides are empty
A man made of wolf, or a wolf made of man
This is their legend of existence,
A missing life on edge
Now, now the cross you turn
Bite to break the skin
Now, now the cross you turn
A man made of wolf, or a wolf made of man
Becomes your nightmare undisguised
Forsaken, we will never forget what’s ours
This is not the end
We’ll fight for our revenge
Shake, shake, shake,
With her dance she’ll rock your body.
See the sweet kisses she blows.
We have got ourselves a trainee from hell.
Now take a heart of treason and praise your loving queen.
All this strength increased her imagine in reality
To a heart that’s torn, and weeps of loving weeps.
To anyone who has ever stood before her. To abandon and erase the history of her false tails. Break free and run away, she is pointed out. And is here to stay.
She’s a drug for us. With every move she makes.
The one for us all. The ground will shake and quake.
Sent from above. With each and every move.
The one to rule them all. With each and every move.
The ground will shake and quake.
With each and every move
the ground will shake and quake.
The ground will shake with every move she makes.
Sorry I’m the wind tonight. Sorry for all I have to hide.
She’ll rock your body.
She has eaten me alive, I swear I wont get through this night.
Taken from my sleep to be tormented at night.
I am completed for this resurrection fight.
Alienate this monster from inside,
And I’ll show you what this world is really like.
An impetus wave of hatred closing in.
Exterminate your friends
A blazing arrow aims for revenge
screams from under your skin.
Cauterize my heart so I can never love again.
Never love again.
Monsters
I’ll capture this moment and hold it to the end
Now that the life in me has waved goodbye, goodbye
Now that the light in me has waved goodbye, goodbye
Hey, what do you see?
Hey, what did you say?
Hold on, Relive, We will not
Breakdown
These words are better left unsaid.
look at the clouds defend my eyes, I can't see through
them
caught in a mist now for some time, hard to get through
your faith in me is like the sun, somehow it lights the
and I'm praying...
this will make us stronger, hope this lasts much longer
dark will make this lighter
black as the whitest boldfaced lie, could not resist it
nobody saw how hard you cried, and tried to get through
your faith in me is like the sun, somehow it lights the
and I'm praying...
this will make us stronger, hope this lasts much longer
dark will make this lighter
you were right, and now I drown from internal bleeding
winter's fallen down to wait for something newfinally
gave up through all that's left to do
finally gave up you oh you put me through
why don't we trade off soon all your wish is true
it can be our gift new makeshift that is few
it can be a part through all that's left to do
soon
winter's falling down soon
winter's falling down soon
winter's falling down soon
winter's falling down soon

make it better (you're pushing me away)
this won't happen again
yeah we live to defend every last dying trend
this won't happen again
yeah we live to defend every last dying trend
Please save me, the sight of me is the saddest thing
around, and it slows me downDrag my feet to someone's
beat,
I'm not even marching,
this parade hates dead weight
Where should I go?
Don't my friends look real?
Don't my friends seem real?
The saddest thing around looks better when you're down,
looking through the right eye,
The saddest thing I see,
staring back at me
Lost in town the lights are down,
I'm the next worst fashion,
Kids at best couldn't care less,
Where should I go?
Don't my friends look real?
Don't my friends seem real?
The saddest thing around looks better when you're down,
looking through the right eye,
Right eye, beauty comes from inside,
born to keep me alive
The saddest thing around looks better when you're down,
looking through the right eye,
The saddest thing I see, staring back at me,
something's in me killing meand when I try I see it's
only me that's killing me
and business background's not enough
not enough to know what's not to know
I wouldn't know to be that cool I wouldn't know
nothing, nothing's overthrown
only, only left alone
and I'm the only one you know
who acts real dumb leave cause I'm not fun
you know pressure to keep writing this
want to stop left it up to me
it's up to me to be a star it's up to me
nothing, nothing's overthrown
I am strong inside and out,
but when things go wrong my insides come out
every once in a while things get like this,
every once in a while...
((chorus))
(laying face up) everything is spinning around
(when you stand up) nothing wants to stay down
(would you give up) I dont know man, but I know I'm
freakin' out
hold me down when this comes back,
I'm giving myself a heart attack
kiss myself goodbye until i learn to fight,
kiss myself goodbye because...
((chorus))
(laying face up) everything is spinning around
(when you stand up) nothing wants to stay down
(would you give up) I dont know man, but I know I'm
freakin' out
((bridge))
can't this all come together,
before it falls apart
forces of evil clash with good and I feellike I should do
something for someone, but I fail
cause we can't take on the world, but if the world comes
to us
and they want to make this personal, then we will
there've been times, when you should hold me back
now's not the time to hold me back again
this is not the time, to hold me back again
this is not the time
this is not the time, don't hold me back again
now for the first time I feel hunted, as I should
and yet I've never been so hungry, like the wolf
you went straight for the heart, tore mine apart, now it
changes everything
you want to make this personal, well we will
there've been times, when you should hold me back
now's not the time to hold me back again
this is not the time, to hold me back again
this is not the time
cold all through it live andsuffer through love and
don't remember cause it's over soon
hold we don't even see where you're coming from
we don't even care
we don't even share
don't request it let it
work itself leave it
time will make it better than it felt
hold we don't even sing where you're coming from
we don't even care
we don't even share
cold all through it live and
suffer through love and
don't remember cause it's over soon
hold we don't even see where you're coming from
we don't even care
we don't even share
can we make it on the phone
we live in holes, afraid to breathe
well throw me to the wolves and...
((chorus))
wish me luck, i'm gonna need it
wish me luck, until i feel brave
wish me luck, i wanna feel it
wish me luck, until i feel brave
it feels like rain, fools rush in, secure
throw me to the cold and...

but I can't do this on my own
((chorus))
this new army will never fall,
this is nothing more than a wake-up call
they promise you a view, just reach the top
slipping down each time you climb,
looking for a face,
something you can replace,
leaving everything behind.
((chorus))
this new army will never fall,
this is nothing more than a wake-up call
so let me hear you if you're with me,
cause I can't do this on my own,
let me hear you if you're with me,
cause I can't do this on my own,
this new army will never fall,
Take me down next to the water
Next to flowers and old times
I hope the view is still the same
'Cause I've been losing strength and power
Regret occupies my mind
I'm sick of loneliness and pain
I used to be, young and free
Worried about my legacy
Now I'm aged and alone
I'm getting old, and growing up
Is not what it's cracked up to be
We're just names in stone
When you're young you think you're perfect
Indestructible and strong
Well let me tell you that you're wrong
'Cause I have watched lives come and go
My God, I've seen my children die
Respect and glory are just talk
I used to be, young and free
Worried about my legacy
Now I'm aged and alone
I'm getting old, and growing up
Is not what it's cracked up to be
We're just names in stone
We're just names in stone
We're just names in stone
We're just names in stone
We're just names in stone
Hold on to your youth
'Cause soon you'll be old, too
Hold on to your youth
this isn't the way it's meant to be
emotions got tangled together
the feeling was new, it set me free
but life with regret is forever
took it all for granted
but it's hard to go back again
oceans of words turned into leaves
falling and spreading the rumor
I 've severed the end despite the means
they're hinting that we have no future
took it all for granted
and I want to go back again
now you look so stranded
can't get you out of my head
this isn't the way it's meant to be
you weren't supposed to be without me
it's what we lacked that set us free
forgive, show mercy
took it all for granted
and I want to go back again
now you look so stranded
can't get you out of my head
arm is in a cast again from dragging you
you don't weigh much but I'm fragile
I won't pull another muscle until I heal
and i'm thinking about leaving
but you send flowers all the time
I'm one of a kind, and I'm dying, when I'm trying to love
I'm one of a kind, and I'm dying, when I'm trying, I'm
trying to love
talking to a wall again is sounding good
you're a crowded room of leaches
looking for a reason to be alone
but there's no door to escape from
but you send flowers all the time
I'm one of a kind, and I'm dying, when I'm trying to love
I'm one of a kind, and I'm dying, when I'm trying, I'm
(they didnt know I was alive then)(you didnt know i was
alive then)
it's out of the blue, I noticed you
i went through old photos and instantly knew
crawl back is cool, and we could be so hot
they didnt know I was alive then,
they didnt know me when I knew them
you didnt know I was alive then
and now you tell yourself that...
it's out of the blue, I'm calling you
i just needed somone to talk to, and get me through
stay tried and true, even though I'm not
it's all in the past, you grew up fast
you wanted to know in the first place, if you'd end up
last
but you need me instead, well I'm still dead
they didnt know I was alive then,
they didnt know me when I knew them
you didnt know I was alive then
and now you tell yourself that we'll be friends
you didnt know i was alive then
and now you tell yourself that
a boomerang is what you threw
and soon it will come back to you
when all your plans dont follow through
always rolling, now my eyes,makes me sick, to realize,
always forward, slow for real,
by my blindest sight,
I know you'll get, what you want,
so won't I, and i don't try,
you don't show it, hold me here,
by my blindest sight,
do you like,
showing me,
prove it to me,
that I'm right,
I know you'll get, what you want,
so won't I, and Idon't try,
keep me grounded, to adhere,
bring me back to when I liked you, and you,crushed me I'm
all over you, we're through.
bring me back to when I liked you, and you,
trust me I'm all over you, we're through.
seems to me no one understands, but you
well I'm so jealous over you, (you)
well I'm so jealous
my precious took to long to see, look at me,
I want you only there for me, (me)
now I'm so jealous over you
too much wine, taken like a mealand building on this, I
can't drive,
better take the wheel, or maybe we can,
just stay here, justify the deal,
that's set in stone now, cause if not,
you can hear them say, lose it.
hey new leaf, I say find a better slave
build a shrine, sweeter than meringue,
grow a little, show some spine,
that's where you read your name, your name.
hey new leaf, I say find a cleaner slate
((chorus))
pay the bill, as i plan on leaving, this evening,
instill, cause i know you better, I'll never let them pay
the bill.
leave this diner
pay the bill because all i want is,
still in a jam, look at youmoving on involves stimulation
and forcing you to leave hurts me too, telling you to
move
stand in the road, I cant make you move
it makes it hard, hard to fill your shoes
if traffic were low, would you stay
staring at the highway
go and see the world, because you
because you've moved
stand in the road, I can't make you move
it makes it hard, hard to fill your shoes
cant find the ocean drowning in your pool
I became so poor I'd auction off more than I owned anyday
and I felt my cheeks go red, but I had to ask anyway
I begged for change and
prayed there was hope left yet
I begged for change and
I held out my hands
we're failing and fading
I became so slight, I betrayed the secrets that kept me
alive, don't let me die
I see through archaic eyes, but I have to ask anyway
I begged for change and
prayed there was hope left yet
I begged for change and
I held out my hands
restless, falling apart, and breathing through
toothachesbreaking down from the start
won't stop holding on
she drowned in a wave out of fear of a falling sun
pulled her hair, one by one
a thousand queens could tell you, don't fall for a king
there's too much too live up to, know your self esteem
a thousand queens will warn you, don't live for a dream
but who do you look up to?
floating on 9 1/2, while choking on stardust
blaming all things above
won't stop holding on
she drowned in a wave out of fear of a falling sun
told herself he's the one
a thousand queens could tell you, don't fall for a king
there's too much too live up to, know your self esteem
a thousand queens will warn you, don't live for a dream
but who do you look up to?
'honey I love you too much, and i feel so afraid
