Luyện nghe bài hát Crimson II: Incantation

Let no man breach the gate to most blasphemous of halls
Lest bitterness and chaos be the they wouldst reap
He must become a slave to this Child's beck and call
For she must waken from her Crimson Sleep..
The stood towering above the ruined city
It shadowed all the new emerging and homes
To look on the ruins was to sympathize and pity
All the suffering and heartache, all the and broken bones
For buried there a testament to the of a queen
A misery that spread across a and stricken land
The crimson birth swamped the earth in dark and deadly dreams
And all did bow beneath the power of her hand

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

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

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

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

And now she sat alone in the of the night
She was hungry now to liberate the from their cage
The glimmer of a moon provided her with light
As she opened up the cover and to read the page
Fly, soul, the guest,
Upon your arrant
Let none be by false confession
Truth be your warrant
Fly soul for body must die

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

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

Something had happened beyond her
A moment of unfettered a soul
That would relish a freedom denied before
By a desperate nation it's back to the wall
Within a split second of reading this
The spirit was free and had from its nest
It was eager to grow from sudden reprieve
And thus in the woman a was conceived
the beginning the world was misled
As a baby was born in a bed
The miracle happening on this Earth
Was perceived as a glorious new Virgin

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

Dan]

But for who seek eternity
For who yearn prosperity
From this single act of
Will raise you far above

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

But one single did stand out from the crowd
quiet at first - with hardly a sound
The Mother Superior harbored
to her heart by three simple vision

[The

The first was a planet by the sea
No dry land in sight, not a or tree
No jutted out from the endless horizon
Or flowers to out the changing of seasons

No animals in the forests or fields
All life was extinct; its fate had sealed

By the curse of a unstoppable flood
Mankind had been drowned in an ocean of

The next revelation was vivid and
It two swordsmen engrossed in a duel
The one a sword that was silver and pure
The other a sword that was red to the

They fought as the sun high in the sky
Their fight would not end until one of them
No room did they for an error to make
For the future of was the trophy at stake

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

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

All day did the swordsman attack without
Though the other lay dead from the frenzied
by the twilight and all that remained
Were the echoes of death and a crimson stain

And so came the of these unyielding visions
A picture of war and divisions
An army of saviors as one
Aware that the end had already

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

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

The visions, the Mother Superior bore
A forewarning of what was in store
This infant so frail not grow to be strong
The world was at risk if she waited too
So veiled by the blackness of night she did
And enter where mother and child were both
And she moved to where the crib lay
She leant over the and started to pray
She prayed for forgiveness for she would do
She prayed that the knife in her hand aim true
But all of a she was now paralyzed
The baby daughter had opened her

Mike]

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

So all seemed as normal for seven years
A veil of deception dissolved any
But there was one lapse in the disguise
And that be seen in the depths of her eyes

The message could clearly be discovered
In the glimpse of the universe found in her
Her hypnotic, unbearably strong
were growing, it wouldn't be long
Oh host who doth not know
The full desire of prisoner
You walk angels fear to go
shalt soon embrace the reckoner

Now and then a question be raised
Strong misgivings threatened to be
But these judgments wiser not to say
To doubt the child could prove to be a rash and choice
By now the Crimson had proved too much
The monastery was under dread
But fear decreed hostile thoughts be crushed
For the creature had the to crawl inside your head
The mother in her moment knew
The time had 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 many views
rules of power were revealed
And thus the pages up one clue
The child bore one significant Heel
Should the Crimson Queen be blinded, powerless she'll be
Bereft of vision, her victims will be free

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

And thou who didst release this most vindictive
Must to be her warder there for all eternity

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

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

Mike]

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

A movement in the
A flash of blazing
The child stood before
With murder in her
The women ran her
To try to the tide
Of purse and anger
There was nowhere left to
Too was their reaction
They were back off their feet
Their were filled with panic
As stared as harsh defeat
Too was their protection
They couldn't staunch the
Of and vengeance
Meted out for this
So the mother's compatriots
Consumed damning pain
writhing in the dirt
They were and insane
They'd looked the child's eyes
And crumbled in
From images too
For minds to bear
Salvation in banishing
creature to the dark
Let not hand be hesitant
Or death be your mark"
But there was still one single
No room for or doubt
The mother knew there was no
She had to end now

She crawled the bloodstained ground
Her eyes averted from the glare
But secretly she knew she'd
A way beyond this

Simon/Mike]

A few more seconds the path
Between success or
Mankind would face the aftermath
Of this confrontation
Got to strike for the
Leave the running blind
Go to cross the
Got to strike for unforgiving eyes

She veiled with trivial thought
A of insignificance
Her daughter to see beyond
The of irrelevance

For a moment they were to face
No sign of what was to be
But her mind refused to break
Those thoughts must not be
Got to for the eyes
Leave the running blind
Go to the line
Got to strike for those eyes

[Lead:

Striking hard, striking fast in
The world around is filled with of red
Forced to stand in anticipation
As rivulets of run down the Child's head
The chamber fills screams of violent rage
Of petulance and impotent
Consumed with frenzied tidal waves of
The princess falls to in dark sedation

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

Cast me to the crimson
hast the power should I be blind
To overthrow my reign
And me to the pit of time
Cast me to the flames
shalt bar the doors of hell
Incant words of sacred rule
me in my crimson cell

[Lead:

And thus was the incantation
Voices round and round
The woman smiled in weak
inside the sounds

[Lead:

And these chants of higher lore
So flesh began to fade
Soon child and mother no more
Their earthly now decayed

Cast me to the flames
Thou shalt bar the doors of
Incant these words of sacred
Seal me in my crimson

[Lead:

And inside the chamber stands
A single cell with hue
Resealed by spoken of Man
Imbued with power from Truth
Two souls for eternity
Light and forever bound
Two that never can be freed
A pathway back will not be
For trapped beyond foolish reach
And far from prying eyes

No now to lead or preach
No to influence or guide
The final sacrifice she
the hope of the human race
And thus she the sacred book
A captive in her crimson

Lest bitterness and chaos be the they wouldst reap
For she must never waken from this Sleep
