Nile - That Which Is Forbidden lyrics
[Nile - That Which Is Forbidden lyrics]
I who would walk across
Dimensions as yet unknown
Laws of space, time
Nay, even gravity it'self
Futile as the meaningless lives of men
And insects
Who hath trod upon the imperishable stars
Whilst my sleeping form lay
Helpless yet unmolested
Protected by faithful slaves
And inhuman servants
Who hath communed with those
Who dwell unwitnessed
On the dark side of our own lunar sphere
The eldest of the wanderers
Who hath gazed
Into the unfathomable all-consuming blackness
From which not even light it'self can escape
Who hath lain in wait lurking
As a dark celestial predator
While the planets navigate
Their endless cycles
I hath foreseen the alignment
I have unveiled the hidden formulae
I shall walk across dimensions unknown
I will traverse the watery abyss
Of the blackened night sky
I who would dare that
Which has been forbidden
Who would hold hostage untold innocent worlds
To blackmail shameless constellations
I would defy the will of the gods
The path shall be made open
The secrets will be revealed
I shall not be denied i shall not be denied
I shall not be denied
Dimensions as yet unknown
Laws of space, time
Nay, even gravity it'self
Futile as the meaningless lives of men
And insects
Who hath trod upon the imperishable stars
Whilst my sleeping form lay
Helpless yet unmolested
Protected by faithful slaves
And inhuman servants
Who hath communed with those
Who dwell unwitnessed
On the dark side of our own lunar sphere
The eldest of the wanderers
Who hath gazed
Into the unfathomable all-consuming blackness
From which not even light it'self can escape
Who hath lain in wait lurking
As a dark celestial predator
While the planets navigate
Their endless cycles
I hath foreseen the alignment
I have unveiled the hidden formulae
I shall walk across dimensions unknown
I will traverse the watery abyss
Of the blackened night sky
I who would dare that
Which has been forbidden
Who would hold hostage untold innocent worlds
To blackmail shameless constellations
I would defy the will of the gods
The path shall be made open
The secrets will be revealed
I shall not be denied i shall not be denied
I shall not be denied
