Fractus Promissum
Embracing Choices: Between Dreams and Destruction
Lyrics
The promise that was handed down was never what it seems
The promised legacy passed down is not as it appeared initially.
Do we live a life of wonder or a curse of broken dreams
Are we experiencing a life filled with awe or enduring a fate of shattered aspirations?
Do we rise up from the ashes, begin the next crusade
Should we emerge from difficulties and start a new crusade, or succumb to the consequences of our own terror?
Or burn upon the alter of the terror that we've made
Alternatively, face destruction on the altar as a result of the terror we have unleashed.
Do we cower in the shadows or step into the light
Should we remain in fear, hiding in obscurity, or step forward into the illuminating truth?
Embrace the blinding fury borne of chaos' holy might
Accept the blinding rage born from the divine chaos, or reject it?
Rise up from the darkness, put an end to wicked schemes
Rise from the darkness and thwart malevolent plans, or...
Or do we bow our heads and follow someone else's dream
...submit by lowering our heads and following the dreams imposed by others?
The promise slips away
The promised positive outcome is slipping away or proving elusive.
Another broken dream
Yet another aspiration is shattered or unfulfilled.
Will we ever heed the warnings sent from up above
Will we ever pay attention to the warnings from higher powers?
To build a brighter future in a world of peace and love
To construct a brighter future based on peace and love?
Do we only hear the trumpet calling from below
Do we only heed destructive calls from below, ignoring higher guidance?
And destroy this lowly planet leaving nothing left to show
Resulting in the potential obliteration of the planet, erasing any evidence of our existence.
Once a land of milk and honey, now it slowly rots away
Once a prosperous and abundant land, now deteriorating gradually.
Living in a world of broken promise
Living in a world where promises are broken and unfulfilled.
