dark empire – the alchemist lyrics
“… and… from the essential saltes of humane dust
a philosopher may… call up the shape of any dead
anscestor…”
[borellus]
hidden away
a dark legacy
unearths itself
just for me
secrets untold
my ancestors world
brought back to life
alchemy
my reflection in the canvas
staring back at me
a portrait hiding knowledge
from forgotten centuries
written in demonic texts
i’d conjure up the dead
but what i thought i could control
took hold of me instead
[chorus:]
under control
from beyond sp-ce and time
slowly it will drain away
my life
i see his face
like a mirror to mine
the alchemist will return
he will return
oh but i shall be gone
deep in the earth
i found his work
frozen in time
now i see
ashes of man
an ungodly plan
risen to life sorcery
what did i uncover
tell me, what did i just see?
murals paint remains of
some bizarre monstrosity
following the dragon’s head
he rose up from the dead
a living corpse reborn again
from which i can’t defend
[chorus:]
under control
from beyond sp-ce and time
slowly it will drain away
my life
i see his face
like a mirror to mine
the alchemist will return
he will return
oh but i shall be gone
[solo]
now my time is ending
in a realm of misery
a portrait brought to life by
supernatural mystery
with my dying breath
hear my warning i have said:
“don’t call up what cannot be brought down”
[chorus:]
under control
from beyond sp-ce and time
slowly it will drain away
my life
i see his face
like a mirror to mine
the alchemist will return
he will return
oh but i shall be gone
