The Oracle (feat. Danny Stevens) Lyrics
Gargul the Oracle
What a tragic mess you fools have made of this. The soul's filled with vacancy. You've spoiled all the crops and seed. This was a birth, a gift. You daftly wasted it. The dust and dirt will stain your fists. You can't escape your own skin.
Ahrima
Every creation is plucked from a boundless hole of perception, doomed to endure flaws of its fountain. The boy will one day cross the mountains.
Gargul the Oracle
And reunite this world's divided halves, fulfill their history. This is more than divine decree, it's his destiny.
Angels
So please take heed of this prophecy. Lifetimes from now there will be two chosen, bound to meet. Inside her lock he will turn the key. Their love will be strong enough to erase all the wrong we’ve done, return us to where we belong, with the Light and Dark as one.
Gargul the Oracle
One day the strands will mend. All the torn seams and frayed ends will turn to one single thread. The cycle will begin. The choices he made that day, to burn down what he’d helped create. You have made this bed, now you must sleep in it.
Ahrima
Every creation is plucked from a boundless hole of perception, doomed to endure flaws of its fountain. The boy will one day cross the mountains.
Gargul the Oracle
And reunite this world’s divided halves, fulfill their history. This is more than divine decree, it’s his destiny.
Nidria
So take heed of this prophecy. Lifetimes from now there will be two chosen, bound to meet. In her lock he’ll turn the key.
Nidria & Ahrima
Their true love will be strong enough.
Ahrima
To erase the wrong we’ve done, the Dark and Light will become one.
Nidria & Ahrima
Their true love will be strong enough.
Ahrima
To erase the wrong we’ve done, the Dark and Light will become one.
What a tragic mess you fools have made of this.
Narration
Time flashed by for the Dark and the Light. The two fragments, recessed, still left unaddressed, stranded in unrest. In the Dark lived two brothers, Adakias, the youngest, and the heir, Pallis. As children, of the lists of myths, their favorite was the narrative of Holy The Sea And The Divided Terrene. Adakias would always dream of a destiny to leave, of fulfilling the prophecy. But he was laughed at, fitted with an unfavorable grafted cast for a foolish dreamer, a romance seeker. The streets frowned, but deep down he screamed out. He knew there was accuracy in the antiquated legacy. Legitimacy to the famed sea. A quiet certainty to his fated fantasies.

The order is a little off in these lyrics. It begins with a verse by Gargul the Oracle, then Ahrima's "Every creation..." then Gargul's "And reunite this world's..." then the angel's "So please take heed of this prophecy.." and then Gargul's "One day the strands..." The rest of the song is in order :). I've tried to figure out the words in the first verse but I can't get them completely perfect.
"What a tragic mess you fools have made of this. The soils filled with vacancy, spoiled all the crops and sea. This was a perfect gift, you ____ wasted it. The and dirt will stain your fist. You can’t escape your own skin."
thats all i could get...
the first blank i think is daftly. the second one is dust
ah, i messed up with my copy/paste apparently. it's fixed now.
wonderful. :) one of my favorite songs on the record.
I adore the falsetto in this song. Nothing better than a true countertenor doing his thing ♥
