The Five Emperors - Lyrics by Pazuzu


Lyrics
The endless universe hides a many secrets.
Upon a throne bewinged and invisible a wrathful Emperor is enthroned.
By his word a galaxy dies and by his breath a planet shivers.A cold wind travels the sky and at sunset it brings us death.
One foot beneath the surface of the sea a menacing layer of decay sinks the stranded ships.
Hidden in the center of the mountains a mighty duke does hide.
Mournful he cries the demise of his empire - forever his land is lost.
Beyond the horizon lies the land of tears where a dethroned monarch cowers upon his throne.
His life was once a crowded theater, but the actors are all dead.
The highlands and valleys, once kingdom of two fearless kings,is now the place where shadows dwell, where beast unseenhide and roar - awaiting the coming of old.
This is the story of the five Emperors.
Their heir a sublime serpent - a Dragon proud and wise,arising to rule the world.
