Luyện nghe bài hát Crimson II: Incantation

Let no man breach the gate to this blasphemous of halls
Lest and chaos be the harvest they wouldst reap
He must n'er become a slave to this Child's and call
For she must never waken her Crimson Sleep..
The monastery stood towering the ruined city
It shadowed all the new settlements and homes
To look on the ruins was to sympathize and pity
All the and heartache, all the graves and broken bones
For buried there a testament to the evil of a
A misery that spread across a weak and stricken
The birth that swamped the earth in dark and deadly dreams
And all mankind did bow the power of her hand

And in the monastery sat a woman with a book
A manuscript lay within her frail and trembling arms
She looked her nervously as guilt rose in her heart
But the of curiosity had drawn her out too far

She wavered on the threshold of a dangerous
For this dark tome was no for human to ever read
The pages with legions of persuasive words and visions
So the volume had been hidden well, but now it had freed

For no apparent reason had the been drawn in
Perhaps it was a of fate, an absence of real thought
She wandered to a that before she'd never been
And all at once the of her senses had been caught
For no apparent reason had the women been in
Where rows of dusty books lay in an display

But one leather binding had the grain of human skin
And seized with she stole this book away

And now she sat in the concealment of the night
She was now to liberate the writings from their cage
The glimmer of a feeble moon provided her with
As she opened up the cover and to read the page
Fly, soul, the guest,
Upon impish arrant
Let none be guiled by false
shall be your warrant
Fly soul for your must die

But for those who seek
For those who yearn
From this single act of
raise you far above humanity

Oh host who doth not know
The full of this prisoner
You walk where angels to go
Thou shalt soon embrace the
Thy halo of glory, hope's gage
May prove to be an pilgrimage

had happened beyond her control
A moment of madness a soul
That would relish a denied once before
By a desperate nation it's back to the wall
a split second of reading this text
The spirit was free and had fled its nest
It was to grow from this sudden reprieve
And thus in the a life was conceived
From the the world was misled
As a baby was born in a bed
The miracle happening here on Earth
Was as a glorious new Virgin Birth

From the moment in that baby was born
The sun did now rise on a new Crimson
And the creature bided its time undiscovered
So safe in the arms of the mother

Dan]

But for those who eternity
For who yearn prosperity
this single act of sanity
Will you far above humanity

from the world, the child remained hidden
A disguised in the Garden of Eden
And all who down on this newly born babe
Were ignorant now of the path this would
The were blind to the subtle control
was exercised daily upon every soul
With no room to question delicate life
All fears would be drowned and all doubts be stifled

But one single mind did stand out the crowd
Though at first - with hardly a sound
The Superior harbored suspicion
Brought to her heart by three vision

Visions:]

The first was a engulfed by the sea
No dry in sight, not a mountain or tree
No rock out from the endless horizon
Or flowers to mark out the changing of

No animals dwelt in the or fields
All life was its fate had been sealed

By the of a violent unstoppable flood
Mankind had drowned in an ocean of blood

The next was vivid and cruel
It depicted two swordsmen engrossed in a
The one held a sword that was silver and
The a sword that was red to the core

fought as the sun rose high in the sky
Their fight would not end until one of died
No room did they have for an error to
For the future of life was the trophy at

But one of the warriors the rules
And with cunning and guile had the other one
As he up his hands in a gesture of peace
The silver opponent allowed this

Then the man with the red sword from behind
Left the silver sword defeated and blind
Then carnage ensued no man could condone
As the red blade sliced through sinew and bone

All day did the attack without halt
Though the other lay dead the frenzied assault
Until by the and all that remained
Were the echoes of death and a crimson stain

And so came the third of these visions
A picture of war and ferocious
An army of saviors as one
Aware the end had already begun

They in a field, which was wide and expansive
They waited in silence both and pensive
The grassland was strewn small crimson petals
Their fragrance was sweet the stench of the devil

And slowly but they fell into sleep
consciousness gone as they slumped in defeat
And they still lie bereft of their willpower
Brought to their by the strength of a flower

The three visions, the Mother bore
A bitter forewarning of was in store
This infant so frail must not grow to be
The world was at risk if she too long
So veiled by the blackness of she did creep
And enter where mother and child were both
And onwards she to where the crib lay
She leant over the baby and started to
She prayed for forgiveness for she would do
She prayed that the knife in her would aim true
But all of a sudden she was now
The daughter had opened her eyes

[Lead:

And those eyes, the woman gazed
The look in her face was both haunted and
She was smothered and swamped in and sadness
The first to be gripped by this foul crimson
brutal psychosis could not be explained
No one single cause was or blamed
But no one could that a child was involved
And the illness remained unresolved

So all as normal for seven short years
A veil of deception any fears
But there was one lapse in the child's
And that could be in the depths of her eyes

The could clearly be discovered there
In the glimpse of the universe found in her
Her gaze hypnotic, unbearably
Suspicions were growing, it be long
Oh host who doth not know
The full desire of prisoner
You where angels fear to go
Thou shalt soon the reckoner

Now and then a would be raised
Strong misgivings to be voiced
But these were judgments not to say
To doubt the child prove to be a rash and deadly choice
By now the Crimson reign had too much
The monastery was shadowed dread
But fear decreed that hostile be crushed
For the creature had the power to inside your head
The mother in her moment knew
The had come for action to be taken

A journey must be made to truths
She must return and read again the book she had

This tome presented further views
Essential rules of power were
And thus the offered up one clue
The child bore one significant Archilles
Should the Crimson Queen be blinded, then powerless be
Bereft of piercing vision, her victims will be

Salvation lies in banishing creature to the dark
Let not your hand be hesitant or death be your mark
Lest regained sight should her flight away from burning hell
A steady heart must seal her within her crimson cell

And thou who didst release this vindictive enemy
Must serve to be her warder for all eternity

One night the lady traveled out beyond the monastery
Her quest was one of and human preservation
She traveled with to reach the ruined city
Where lay the means to save her kind, a to their salvation
When there they for evidence of where the Queen once slept
And came upon a gateway, which was tightly closed and
A stark inscription warned of the risk of their next step
But choices were no more; had already come too far

Let no man breach the to this most blasphemous of halls
Lest bitterness and chaos be the harvest wouldst reap
He must n'er become a to this Child's beck and call
For she must never waken from her Sleep:

[Lead:

fresh resolve the women carried on towards their goal
And found a cell where crimson shade were scattered
A sight so dreadful it their very souls
The cell had long been drained and all around the glass lay

A movement in the
A flash of blazing
The child stood before
With in her eyes
The ran towards her
To try to the tide
Of purse and crimson
There was nowhere left to
Too slow was reaction
They thrown back off their feet
throats were filled with panic
As they stared as defeat
Too weak was protection
They couldn't staunch the
Of vitriol and
Meted out for this
So the mother's brave
Consumed damning pain
Died writhing in the
They bleeding and insane
looked into the child's eyes
And in despair
images too hideous
For human minds to
Salvation lies in
This to the dark
Let not your hand be
Or death will be mark"
But there was still one hope
No for fear or doubt
The knew there was no choice
She had to end now

She crawled across the bloodstained
Her eyes averted the steely glare
But secretly she knew found
A way beyond this

[Lead:

A few more seconds spanned the
Between or damnation
Mankind face the aftermath speed
Of deadly confrontation
Got to for the eyes
the monster running blind
Go to cross the
Got to strike for those eyes

She veiled herself with trivial
A of insignificance
Her daughter failed to see
The of irrelevance

For a moment they were face to
No of what was soon to be
But still her refused to break
Those must not be seen
Got to strike for the
Leave the monster running
Go to the line
Got to strike for unforgiving eyes

[Lead:

Striking hard, striking fast in
The world around is filled shades of red
to stand in weak anticipation
As rivulets of blood run down the head
The chamber fills screams of violent rage
Of petulance and impotent
Consumed frenzied tidal waves of hate
The princess to earth in dark sedation

Her blindness the growth of nascent power
That grows within her like some flower
The blade of strikes her to the hilt
And so the inside begins to wilt
But time is for action to be taken
No chance to dwell on or mistakes
No chance for excuses to be found
The moment of Salvation be now!

Cast me to the flames
Thou hast the power should I be
To my wicked reign
And throw me to the pit of
me to the crimson flames
Thou bar the doors of hell
Incant these words of rule
me in my crimson cell

[Lead:

And thus was read the
Voices echoed and round
The woman in weak elation
Mesmerized the sounds

Dan]

And these chants of higher lore
So mortal flesh to fade
Soon child and mother were no
Their bodies now decayed

Cast me to the flames
Thou shalt bar the of hell
Incant these of sacred rule
me in my crimson cell

[Lead:

And inside the chamber stands
A cell with crimson hue
Resealed by word of Man
Imbued with power from Truth
Two souls imprisoned for
Light and dark forever
Two souls that can be freed
A pathway will not be found
For trapped beyond some foolish
And far away from eyes

No channel now to lead or
No chance to or guide
The final sacrifice she
Ensured the hope of the race
And thus she holds the sacred
A in her crimson space

Lest bitterness and be the harvest they wouldst reap
For she must never waken this Crimson Sleep
