The Domino Decree Lyrics

Cause, this is the creed that brings effect
That of which of mankind's besieged
By our plans devised infect
Kings and empires rise and fall
By the Rose and our decree
Of the Elder's prophecy
That rids us of the human threat
And frees the hand of destiny

Fate by our dominion
In their sovreign states
Fall like dominos
Framing mankind's fate

Kill! Assassinate the ones that lead
By their example we deceive
With religions we create
Martyrs, saviors and their slaves
To a sad sadistic need
To crucify a puppet king
Of a selfish vile race
That is filled to the core by greed

Fate by our dominion
In their sovreign states
Fall like dominos
Framing mankind's fate

Divide!! Mankind!!
Destroy!! Their kind!!!
Fear will make us free
Cast doubt through history

DIVIDE!!!

Fate by our dominion
In their sovreign states
Fall like dominos
Framing mankind's fate

Right you are!

"Framing Armageddon: Something Wicked Part 1 tells the story of the Setians, who were the original inhabitants of Earth, and are directly descended from the "Great Architect". They are said to have nearly omniscient knowledge. Humans, who have developed space travel, invade Earth in a bid for "ultimate power and ultimate knowledge", killing all but ten thousand Setians (Invasion, Motivation of Man, Setian Massacre).

The remaining ten thousand go into hiding in the mountains in the east (A charge to keep). The Setian High Council, which consists of the twelve Elders and the High Priest, make a plan to get revenge on the invading human race (Reflections, Ten Thousand Strong, Order of the Rose). They plan to initiate "The Clouding", which involves brainwashing all the humans and making them forget their origins (Cataclysm, The Clouding). Once completed, the Setians will manipulate history by creating religions--Christianity, Islam, Judaism, etc.,--to further divide the humans (Infiltrate and Assimilate, Retribution Through the Ages, The Domino Decree, Framing Armageddon). Once human kind is sufficiently divided, after ten thousand years, the Setians will await, as the prophecy told millennia ago, the birth of the Antichrist, Set Abominae (When Stars Collide, The Awakening). Set Abominae will destroy all of the human race and execute the revenge the Setians have long awaited.

Framing Armageddon tells the story from the prophecy to the events right before the birth of Set Abominae." - wiki
