[Part I: Thinker's Dirge]
[Instrumental]
[Part II: Deluded Transcendence]
Long before the ancient times
When men had yet to learn
Five minds gathered at a sunless hill
Our way of life was their concern
Ambition rose in heart and flare
Until one of the five stood a tall
Though engulfed in enigmas of right and wrong
The birth of gods were called
Now the sins of man and eye of gods
Are bound to one common sphere
Though when manmade divinity reside above all
The very fabric of minds shall tear
Stone cold perfection corrodes
With something we were never meant to be
Content set above change
Results in a mind never to be free
Borrow from the lender
You'll find your mind is next in line
Fear the facts of life
Live out your zombie state of mind
[Part III: Sodom and Gomorrah]
[I. Prologue]
A dark shadow sways over the eastern sky
Its him, O' thy Holy, as the end draws nigh
The Cities of Plain has not obeyed their Lord
Now, he shall decay this shameful horde
[II. God's Eye]
"Citizens of Sodom and Gomorrah
I pass upon divine conviction
No more will you ever witness aurora
And you will suffer for sexual addiction"
Casting fire and brimstone's on rapists and sinners
The cities will forever burn
A punishment from the Heavens is a hellish act
Maybe now they'll finally learn
Smells of melting flesh
Surrounds the villages
They have never felt or seen
So horrific images
A beautiful forest
Once compared to the Garden of Eden
Destroyed and burned to the ground
This nature once breeding
"Bow unto me
And never ever do me wrong
As you have witnessed
Your God is mighty and strong"
As the land of Canaan is one big blaze
The ashes cover the great Dead Sea
"You will know my name is the lord
When I lay my vengeance upon thee"
[III. Passage]
But before all this took place
God did show some grace
A villager named Lot and his family
Were spared from this horrible tragedy
They traveled to the city of Zoar
Never to look back anymore
[IV. Lot's Eyes]
Two angels sent from the Heavens
To give me this fair warning
"God will kill all you sorry peasants
Bring your loved ones and flee before morning"
I ran to my sons in law
And told them about what happened at dawn
They did not believe me at all
"Please, this city will take its toll!"
Dawn shows its first signs
And the time is short
"Flee to the mountains
And your family you'll escort"
The angels grab our hands
And fly us into vigilance
"You must go and never look back
Away from this dissonance"
"Spear us the mountains are too much
We will run to the city of Zoar"
"Very well, so it be
God has mercy for you me"
Moving towards our new home
These paths we'll forever roam
All this madness and outcry was all our fault
As my wife turns around, she turns into a pile of salt
