Iced Earth Lyrics

"Ten Thousand Strong" lyrics


A gathering summoned by the elder,
The consequence of what's imminent
A prophecy dark and foreboding,
Forces them to face human intent

The chosen seek refuge in the mountains,
Reluctantly the loved ones recognize
The sacrifice they must adhere to
The only hope for future Setian life,
Like a martyr sacrificed

(Chorus)
Await the days of Clouding,
Earth Mother's sharing in our pain
Erase the human memory,
They know not of where they came
And though our hearts our broken,
We have to wipe the tears away
In vain they did not suffer,
Ten thousand strong will seize the day

What we possess, mankind is after
Direct descendants of the Architect
Children of god, seeds of creation
Stakes so high, we must never relent

We lie in wait 'til human minds are clouded,
Initiation of the Master Plan
Assimilate, build new life among them
Centuries will pass, patience will win,
We are the bane of man

(Chorus)
Await the days of Clouding,
Earth Mother's sharing in our pain
Erase the human memory,
They know not of where they came
And though our hearts our broken,
We have to wipe the tears away
In vain they did not suffer,
Ten thousand strong will seize the day

Earth mother's crying out in pain...
We have to wipe the tears away...
Their hearts are broken...

Ten thousand seize the day!!!
