Lyric discussion by Kaize 

Cover art for A Fool's Paradise lyrics by Symphony X

"Understanding that the balance was altered long ago from the ways of Montu-Sekhmet and his actions. And this forever effected every civilization and every generation of mankind, being that darkness is the stronger force. (Comparisons to modern day events, etc.)." ~Quoted from Symphony X's official website.

I'm quite interested in this song's meaning as, if you look at the world today, 'darkness' really is the regretably more powerful force.
