SEPTICFLESH
"Mystic Places Of Dawn"

[Verse 1: Spiros Antoniou, Sotiris Vayenas & Both]
They lasted as long as a spark shines
But their shining was so bright
That it was caught forever in the spectre of time
What was a fact became a legend
What was reality became a canvas
In the mausoleum of civilization

[Verse 2: Spiros Antoniou & Both]
Landscapes of untold antiquity
Unchanged are calling
To an orgy of colours and shapes
In a drunkenness
With pure fantasy

[Bridge: Spiros Antoniou & Sotiris Vayenas]
Their names 'cause awe
And awake
Forgotten senses

[Chorus: Spiros Antoniou, Sotiris Vayenas & Both]
The eerie valley of Pnath
The majestic Lemuria
Sarnath, the doomed
And names that echo
In the labyrinths and the cavernous deeps of chaos

[Post-Chorus: Spiros Antoniou & Both]
Mystic places of dawn

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 3: Spiros Antoniou & Both]
Maybe we, ourselves want to forget
Helping the truth to grow old
And be deformed from the wrinkles of uncertainty
Afraid where the path backwards will lead us
We prefer to be protected
Under the shelter of ignorance

[Bridge: Sotiris Vayenas]
He who stares back
Through the glass of centuries
Will also see
His reflection

[Guitar solo]

[Chorus: Spiros Antoniou, Sotiris Vayenas & Both]
The eerie valley of Pnath
The majestic Lemuria
Sarnath, the doomed
And names that echo
In the labyrinths and the cavernous deeps of chaos

[Post-Chorus: Spiros Antoniou & Both]
Mystic places of dawn
