Lyrics
At dawn they rise pointing to the skies
People or entities rise at dawn, indicating a military or destructive force.
Ready to cut through the clouds at command
Prepared to penetrate through obstacles, possibly referring to warfare.
From wombs in the ground born to deafening sounds
Entities born from the ground amid intense noise or conflict.
When the button is pressed by deaths hand
When a destructive action is initiated, symbolized by pressing a button.
Loaded with death powered by the dragons breath
A destructive force propelled by a powerful, deadly source.
Climbing way above the clouds out of sight
Rising above the clouds with a destination to cause destruction.
To seek its destination and destroy it into void
Seeking and annihilating its target, turning it into nothingness.
And to spread its load of death and endless night
Spreading death and darkness as part of its mission.
Below water in the ground on wings of steel up high
Weapons positioned underground, ready to soar with deadly intent.
Seeds of death to be launched in final one of wars
Seeds of death meant to be deployed in the final stages of war.
Each with a number for a distant city at their sides
Each with a designated target in distant cities.
Wonder what's the number for my city and for yours
Ruminating on the unknown fate of one's own city and others.
Metal phallous seeds of death
Comparing destructive weapons to phallic symbols, emphasizing power.
That is not won else cannot be lost
Emphasizing the inevitability of destruction; victory or loss is irrelevant.
Precious burden seeds of death
Referring to the destructive payloads as precious burdens.
Sown to earth brings the holocaust
Connecting the sowing of these burdens to the concept of a holocaust.
Prepare to die
An ominous call to face impending death.
Now leaving their wombs all in fire baptised
Entities emerging from their origin in a fiery baptism.
Outnumbering the stars in the sky
Outnumbering the stars, signifying an overwhelming force.
Each with a skytrack on which they are sent
Each with a designated path (skytrack) towards its destructive destination.
To destroy each part of the world on the other side
Intent on annihilating different parts of the world on the opposing side.
Not time to repent feel regret or ask for mercy
No room for remorse or repentance once the destructive force is unleashed.
Once launched there is no way to bring them back
Once launched, there is no retrieval, underlining the finality of the action.
Finally the world created by man look so bright
A reflection on the world created by humanity, contrasting its initial brightness with impending darkness.
Before it all turns black
The world turning black symbolizes the destructive aftermath.
Below water in the ground on wings of steel up high
Reiteration of the underground launch with wings of steel, emphasizing the deadly nature of the weapons.
Seeds of death to be launched in final one of wars
Seeds of death meant for deployment in the final stages of warfare.
Each with a number for a distant city at their sides
Each with a designated target in distant cities.
Wonder what's the number for my city and for yours
Repeating the contemplation of the unknown fate of various cities.
Metal phallous seeds of death
Reiteration of destructive weapons as phallic symbols, emphasizing their potency.
That is not won else cannot be lost
Emphasizing the inevitability of destruction; victory or loss is irrelevant.
Precious burden seeds of death
Referring to the destructive payloads as precious burdens.
