Prelude / Lost City Lyrics

Around the earth you can hear our cries
Echo over the land
A coven of once noble humans
The symbol of honest man
Our sadness is always now and forever
Within us never to fade
The tears on our faces
Oh how they fall from broken, failing eyes

Lost city we are there if only in our minds
Lost city a city of heavenly dreams
Taken away taken all away
Lost city they've taken it all away

Beauty of life was ours forever
The nature of it all
But sinners of greed took their poisons of evil
And turned it on the world
The soul is nothing without hope
And that has finally died
An evil dream of endless sorrow has become reality
Our broken wings can't fly no more,
For we've become the past

Chilling wars have come and gone
The innocents were slain
Senseless killing insane acts
The torture and the pain
No life is safe upon this earth
When others sound our voice
For up till now it's misery that's leading man to die

Life's beauty was once proudly displayed
For everyone to see
A gift from heaven given to earth
What a sight unleashed
Then through the ages changes occurred
The beauty it started to fade
All of the charm was taken away
The angel loses its wings

Lost city we are there if only in our minds
Forever they've taken it all away
The queen's crown torn from her head
Sealing the end of us all
The fading of freedom leaves us to wonder
Will it ever return?
They've taken it away!
