The Heart of the Unicorn Lyrics

Masters are relentless, torture is for slaves
Money, greed and power drives you to obey
Temperature is rising, shakes me to the core
Blood and domination, victims of the law

When bloody angels spread their wings

We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead

I see the demons rising, beyond their sleeping void
Deep and down the masters take them to the light
Their piercing rays are blazing, obliterating fast
All dreams are torn to pieces, vaporized at last

When bloody angels spread their wings

We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead

I scan the dead horizon, illuminated curse
In squished imagination, catastrophies unfurl
Beyond the cataclysm, a dream of Unicorns
The purest heart in heaven, stabbed by poisoned thorns

Bloody angels, searing with fire-turn to dust

All through the millenniums, I've seen the writing on the wall
Into our oblivion, we are the riders on the storm

We're drowning in madness, the heart of the Unicorn...
Dwelling in sadness, the heart of the Unicorn...
...is dead

Beware - all dead
No light - all dead
No dreams - all dead
No life - you're dead

I think the heart of the unicorn represents the mystical soul of mankind.

This is the first time for me to try Gamma Ray, as I'm not that into Power Metal, I prefer heavier stuff. But I was shocked when I tried this album "No World Order" especially this song "The Heart of the Unicorn" I adored it. The vocals in "the bloody angels spread their wings" are outstanding...

Kai's voice in this one is awesome ... There's nothing quite like this song.

My Opinion

Well a major power metal component is basing songs on a fantastical world (like something from world of warcraft or lord of the rings). Dragonforce and Rhapsody of Fire are the most notable power metal bands who do this. So, many of power metal songs, despite their beautiful, epic, melodies don't actually have deep meaning simply because their based on a storyline linked to a world that doesn't exist. I think this song might be one of them.

Scratch that. This is more speed metal than power metal. I actually think it talks about the apocalypse and that the never ending struggle between good and evil is "drowning" the earth.

Or perhaps it may be about how society's restrictions make you feel like you're torn to pieces, kinda like The Wall only without the isolation storyline.

I think this song is about the Apocalypse, just like Armageddon.

Armageddon was another great song they did
