According to the bands renown lyricist 'Pekka Kainulainen' this is about the story of man who is searching, finding & forgetting. A single spark can set the world afire, a single idea can give birth to a new culture. The greatest can stagnate into insignificance, the smallest can hold the power for change. The lyrics reference distant echoes of ancient forest peoples, from a time when meaning was proportioned by the cosmic forces that govern birth and death. If the connection was lost, they sought for a strand of knowledge, found a new direction, and a new age began. This theme is also carried throughout the album 'Queen of Time'.
