Lyrics
Great Work Of Ages
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Arrival of an achromatic mechanism
Hidden agenda, pious fraud of ages
Control, alteration, manipulation, antagonism
Human abilities perish in the acid of sorcery
Their senses turn into rusty strings
Victimized, possessed, superhuman undead
Shattered be the crystal of a lost civilization
Consumed be the human brain
And like hot sands slashing
Across the deserts' face
The lies whirl about the earth
