Letra de ' Black Prophecies ' de Dark Angel

Back when man had no care for the past
And little hope for the future
A man who stood out in the annals of time

To tell of the actions to come
The uncanny words of a clinical mind
Turn of centuries bore his truth
A mysterious being with a curious gift
Nostradamus, chosen one

His talent for reaching with a gaze
Into the future unknown
Conclusions drawn from inner haze
As the seeds of time were sewn

The fires, the plagues, the men of blood
Foretold by prophetic eye
Scourges upon lands he never stood
Predicting our race to die

Seeing the days of hideous plague
When nature released disease upon the human race
The damage was done, Black Death had won
Pestilence, the start of Armageddon

Torment and fire, London expired
The English lands became a massive funeral pyre
Ruinous blaze, the city was razed
Due to the great London's fire, life was denied
Now the people today understand and take heed
His truthful words of the future they've seen

The one who knew where we'd stand
In centuries ahead of where he roamed the land
He'd seen the fear upon the Earth
Hatred, death, and pain, four-hundred years worth
A witness to brutality
And evil warmongers' insanity
His written words upon the page
Black prophecies

Nostradamus envisioned saviors of hate
To reign subservient mass
Attempting to alert us before it's too late
We witnessed the evil that passed

We watched all the wretched torment inflicted
And shook our heads with grief
And understood then what the seer predicted
Beyond our conscious belief

At war with a sick brain, Hitler was known
To render a massive injustice
Striking the Hebrews, a mighty deathblow
Guaranteeing his fate in the abyss

The wars, the concentration camps
Foretold, prophetic eye
When the doomsayer became entranced
He saw when our race will die

Sinister minds, hate had then blind
To the slaughter of innocent people, insidious crime
Walking the Earth, the Devil's rebirth
The Führer, the second son, Napoleon being the first
Both antichrists, brought anguish and strife
Ruling the empires with a criminal sickening spite
Gaseous showers, with Hitler empowered
Innocent Jewish honor forever raped and deflowered
Now the people today understand and take heed
His truthful words of the future they've seen

The one who knew where we'd stand
In centuries ahead of where he roamed the land
He'd seen the fear upon the Earth
Hatred, death, and pain, four-hundred years worth
A witness to brutality
And evil warmongers' insanity
His written words upon the page
Black prophecies

Back when man had no care for the past
And little hope for the future
A man who stood out in the annals of time
To tell of the actions to come

The uncanny words of a clinical mind
Turn of centuries bore his truth
A mysterious being with a curious gift
Nostradamus, chosen one

His talent for reaching with a gaze
Into the future unknown
Conclusions drawn from inner haze
As the seeds of time are sewn

In the year 1999 and seven months
From the sky will come the great king of terror
Nostradamus watches from beyond
Waiting for our race to die

Third war, final scar
Soon the obliteration will be total, leaving no more
Millennium two will not be renewed
The bodies, corpses, and souls will then be exhumed
Nuclear fire, the Earth has expired
The worldly lands became a massive funeral pyre
Ruinous blaze, the landscape is razed
Due to the nuclear winter's frost, life is denied
Now the people today understand and take heed
His truthful words of the future they've seen

The one who knew where we'd stand
In centuries ahead of where he roamed the land
He'd seen the fear upon the Earth
Hatred, death, and pain, four-hundred years worth
A witness to brutality
And evil warmongers' insanity
His written words upon the page
Black prophecies
