ICED EARTH LYRICS
"Setian Massacre" (2007 Single)
1. Setian Massacre
2. Ten Thousand Strong
1. Setian Massacre
Screaming in agony
Cries fill the air
Eyes once full of hope
Shedding tears of despair
All that they've ever known is dead
Fire reigns from above
Iron birds of dread
All that they ever loved is dead
All that they ever dreamt is dead
Yet there's a glint of hope
If the chosen can survive
In secret the ten thousand hide
East in the mountains
The chosen bide their time
The Clouding, our strike on mankind
Temples are burning
Streets soaked with blood
Heed the prophecy
Destiny is done
All that they ever loved is dead
All that they ever dreamt is dead
Yet there's a glint of hope
If the chosen can survive
In secret the ten thousand hide
East in the mountains
The chosen bide their time
The Clouding, our strike on mankind
2. Ten Thousand Strong
A gathering summoned by the Elder
The consequence of what's imminent
A prophecy dark foreboding
Forces them to face human intent
The chosen seek refuge in the mountains
Reluctantly their loved ones recognize
The sacrifice they must adhere to
The only hope for future Setian life
Like a Martyr sacrifice
Await the day of clouding
Earth mother's sharing in our pain
Erase the human memory
They know not of where they came
And though our hearts are broken
We have to wipe the tears away
In vain they did not suffer
Then Thousand Strong will seize the day
What we possess. Mankind is after
Direct descendants of the Architect
Children of God, seeds of creation
The stakes so high we must never relent
While in wait 'till human minds are clouded
Initiation of the Master Plan
Assimilate and build new life among them
Centuries will past, patience will win
We are the bane of man
Await the day of clouding
Earth mother's sharing in our pain
Erase the human memory
They know not of where they came
And though our hearts are broken
We have to wipe the tears away
In vain they did not suffer
Then Thousand Strong will seize the day
Earth Mother's crying out in pain
We have to wipe the tears away
Our hearts are broken
Ten thousand strong seize the day
