GOLDEN AGE
Remember…
Cronos reigned alone —
And with a single Thought,
Out of sand and stone,
Chaos to Cosmos brought.
Remember…
In the likeness of a god
Had Men been made to live on Earth,
Yet did not forget to laud
The One Divine who gave them birth.
Remember…
Fruits and corn aplenty,
Work-free fertile fields,
No need for coin or penny,
Nor deaths on battlefields —
Remember…
Children in the garden lush,
Dancing round the Tree of Life,
On their milk-white cheeks a blush,
Endless spring with Presence rife.
Remember…

SILVER AGE
How can a world of giants
Feel so small and petty?
Where are My dear suppliants?
They don’t look so pretty!
The Sons of Zeus
Have been set loose…
More and more do they wish for —
Excess in all except humility…
Less and less do they pray for —
What good is there in this humanity?
The Sons of Zeus
Have been set loose…
Oh, ungrateful Man!
Have you forgotten Me?
Away from Me you ran
And wiped out you shall be!

BRONZE AGE
The days of Ares came —
Barbarians, blood and battles,
The age of kings and castles —
When men killed men for fame…
Sowing death and war
Like seeds on battlefields
With swords and spears and shields,
And wrecked ships on the shore…
Their doom was drawing near
As in the darkest dungeons
Some prepared their bludgeons
To face their deepest fear —

IRON AGE
Hollow helmets, broken breasts,
Rusty swords and shattered shields,
Nothing left but empty chests —
Rotting words the poet wields.
« Turning and turning in the widening gyre,
The falcon cannot hear the falconer. »
In the west the sun shall rise,
Soon the clown will wear a crown
And the fool some now call wise —
Down is up and up is down.
« Turning and turning in the widening gyre,
The falcon cannot hear the falconer. »
Ever closer to the edge,
Iron men believe they’re gods —
Yet do they not see the ledge
Toward which the devil prods?

DREAM AGE
The army of the dead has been defeated,
A thousand bodies lie on blood-soaked crops —
From them it seems like life has long retreated —
The harvest yields on each and every corpse
The fruit of war.
Yet in the darkness hope is growing fast:
Behind the helmet’s visor shines a light —
A skinless skull with empty sockets vast;
Within, a bright blue butterfly — ignite,
Ye mighty moth!
Imagination is the realm of kings —
Only they who wield the Sword of Truth
May pierce the veil that sorrow brings
To those whose hearts have turned to stone — forsooth,
They live no more…
Behold the moonlit grave as crows alight:
Inside the silent tomb a secret gleams —
Since mortal men have made their world of night,
All that is now left is but their dreams —
How warm their cloth!

This album is SO well done! I love when DS albums have longer songs that don't get repetitive but also keep the same vibe the whole way through, the artwork for the album is amazing too!
