Symphony X

What's become of the world
The colors unfurl
Revealing a blackened haze
Conditioned to fear
The voice that we hear
Calling an end of days
Millions of souls under control
Like pawns to a king
Led by a string
To the final hour
Oh, Empire of the Sea,
Lords of technology that fell into the void
Oh shall it be (oh shall it be) as it was before
Tragedy on every shore
Is this the end of all we know
Innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams
The darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war
We can't go on like this anymore
Living like fools
Chaos will rule this eternal paradise
Death by design
Altering birth
Trends of the modern age
The wisdom of life erased from the earth
In a reckless rampage
Oh, Empire of the Sea,
Lords of technology bring death onto the earth
Oh shall it be (oh shall it be) as it was before
Tragedy on every shore
Is this the end of all we know
Innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams
The darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war
We can't go on like this anymore
living like fools
Chaos will rule this eternal paradise
Dies Irae
Dies Illa
Solvet Saeclum
In favilla
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war
We can't go on like this anymore
Living like fools
Chaos will rule this eternal paradise
Is this the end of all we know
Innocence lost so long ago
Woven in dreams
The darkest of schemes now takes hold of our destiny
Decades of greed, plague, famine and war
We can't go on like this anymore
Lost in the night, fading from sight
Is this the final setting sun?
