Текст песни: The Fallen Kingdoms Of The Abyssal Plain + перевод

Hearken, children of the Ersatz gods

Sons and daughters of the New Earth, for here is truth

Long ago, before the third of Earth’s moons

Fell fiery from the star-seared sky

There were those whom we have come to call the First Ones

These men who were not men were the creations of the Mera

Beings from the far reaches of the limitless cosmos

Whose essence still flickers latently within the minds

Of all their disparate progeny

Praise the Mera, fathers of the First Ones

Bondsmen of the K’laa, sworn foes of the Z’xulth

Sired in the great spawning vats beyond the

Fathomless deeps of the Pre-Cambrian sea

The First Ones throve

Those who were engineered to live on land

Duly constructed the grand Antarctic

Megalopolis, ultimately becoming entangled in Bitter conflicts with the hoary Serpent Kings

Before retreating into the subterrene depths of The vast inner world

Whereas those First Ones that had chosen

The embrace of the abyssal seas were the architects

Of vast and glorious submarine cities whose splendid

Spires and minarets towered proudly beneath

The unfathomed waves those grand bioluminescent cities

Are now long since fallen razed and dispersed

Given over to the cruel whims of the unforgiving oceans

From the lore of our ancestors

We know the true nature of the cosmos

We know of the hidden and silent places

The places which reside in between

The veils of reality, the places which mankind

Was never meant to see

All this we know, we who survive

We who are descended from those First Ones

And who give thanks to the gods who are not gods

For our creation, our genesis, for the breath of life

That was forced into our progenitors during

The early epochs of this cratered globe

Hearken, children of the Ersatz gods

Sons and daughters of the New Earth

For here is truth
