From oceans burning
From ancient seas ablaze
Come forth mighty leviathan
Unrivalled be its wrath
Forgotten relic of cycles past
Will curse this world anew
Their kingdoms burnt, subjects enslaved
Their legacy dethroned

Awoken from incandescent slumber
The inner sanctum of its visage impaired

Crowned once as the apex of all worlds
The spinal feature of existence
Restrained our conscience, and our souls
A crippling deformity
The gods on high, they sold us out
To mechanical creatures, from worlds beyond
Beyond the realms of our fantastical imaginings

From oceans burning
Of ancient seas ablaze
A cryptic race devolved us
And threw us in its wake

They brand us lesser minded
Yet unleash upon us all
This diseased plight
To repeat the mistakes of eden
They harvest our people
The conversion to abomination
Doomed us all to failed beginnings
And certain ends

From oceans burning
Of ancient seas ablaze
A cryptic race devolved us
To put us in our place

The weak forever rising
To claim the right of life
Yet they slew our 'wishful thinking'
And accredit our demise
Let us paint a brighter future
Free from a misplaced creations reckonings

From oceans burning
Of ancient seas ablaze
A cryptic race devolved us
And threw us in its wake
From oceans burning
Of ancient seas ablaze
A cryptic race devolved us
To put us in our place
I this set of lyrics is the 'odd one out' of this album. Instead of madness, dreaming and nightmares, this is reminiscent of 'Black Harvest' in that it delves into my infatuation with the 'Mass Effect' universe.
