Lyrics - Canticles by Gods Tower
...
And the world was young.
And it was cruel and beautiful.
And it was full of heroes and titans who were fighting andcognizing the world.
In that time people souls were nalve and child-likehappily.
People saw life in everything and the surroundingnature meant for them something what not everybody livingnow can understand.
And thay believe in
Gods who weredifferent in names but same in essence.
Those
Gods cameto the
Earth from the old ages, when all living was dark andcruel and lifeless - light and reconciling.
In those agesintellect did not exist and its place was occupied by instinct -a formidable weapon, leading to death...
Monsterspossessed this weapon, whose horror was later called
Hell,and there was no a single creature who had not spent theirlife in struggle for everything.
When the
Gods descended on the
Eartg and saw thatsavage chaos they were puzzled and horrified by thescenery.
And so they created the first people, who got threethings really majestic - intellect, wisdom and feelings.
Andevery
God had the telns of government of a soul, and the
Gods of darkness gave evil genius to intellect, misanthropyto wisdom and hatred to feelings; and the
Gods of light gaveclearness of thought to intellect, kindness to wisdom andlove to feelings.
And people, having opened their eyes, sawthe fear of life and prayed for remorse and salvation,because man is weak, and
God is omnipotent.
So the
Godssaved the people from the savage chaos and peace and lightstarted reigning.
But
Evil retired to darkness awaiting for the reveal andbegan to send grief and pain; suffering enfered the evenpart of intellect and started to destroy the people from
Inside.
Darkness moved to light and wars, murdersand depravity descended on the humankind.
Brothers killedbrothers and the war was not between people but between
Gods, who wanted to make the world more perfect.
But the
Gods of light forgot that there was no light without shadows,and their opponents that there was no use in darknesswithout light.
So, the
Gods become reconciled, for continuation of thestruggle had no sense and has a sign of the reconcilation theybuilt a
TOWER on the border of
Light and
Dark, human'sworld and divine world.
And people's life was happy andcalm and it was the
Golden
Age!
But among the
Gods there was one the smallest andcontemptible one, longing for power.
So, he deceivedthe
Gods of
Evil and got the wine, which the
Gods of
Deathgave to the people when their time was out.
They drank itand fell into sleep when the
Gods had a feast he poured thatwine into their goblets.
And having done it, he said: "
Fromnow on you are heresy and
I am the
God!"
His name was
Iegova and he called himself
God.
For the true,
Immortal
Gods had fallen asleep and only the
Gods of
Darkness stayedawake and for this reason
Iegova begane to detest them anddrove them out of
TOWER.
And this nonentity made heavenhis throne and started ruling the visible world, and the
Gods of
Darkness ruled the
Invisible world because
Iegove was not atrue
God, but a false one.
And people don't believe him andthen he sent them his reflection, called
Christ, to mislead thehumankind, relying upon their naivity and simplicity.
Christ,being lead by his forefather, told people tales and showedwonders, although they were very stupid, comparing with whattrue
Gods, sleeping in the
TOWER, could do.
But people weresurprised and praised
Christ like children and soon commitedthe truth of ancient for oblivion and fire, for they believed thedivine mongrel.
And the plague of deception and deafnessspread all over the world and people went mad.
And the
TOWER, standing on the crossing of
Darkness and
Light,
Life and
Death gradually was overrun with moss andseeds and plunged in the lack of faith...
And nobody from the living now knows the truth and trueancient
Gods are sleeping in the
TOWER, awaiting for theprophecy, drawn with rules at the gates, to come true: "and innineth night the moon will disappear, moons will show andomens of each of us will be burning on them, because peoplewill recollect and believe and the truth will awake through thatfaith.
And he, once having lied, will be overthrown and cursed.
And the world'll see its rebirth from the ashes and the
Golden
Age will come again."
And
I had this vision and having learnt the truth,
I praised thesleeping abd cursed the staying awake, because until the falsegod is in heaven, grains of
Truth are dispersed in darkness andthey are countless in number and light is only pure imagination.
Let your time come, the
Gods, true and ancient, who's givenus life and death, light and darkness, intellect, wisdom andfeelings...
OYHRRA!!!
