October 31 - Prelude / Lost City lyrics

Around the earth you can hear our cries Echo over the land A coven of once noble humans The symbol of honest man Our sadness is always now and forever Within us never to fade The tears on our faces Oh how they fall from broken, failing eyes Lost city we are there if only in our minds Lost city a city of heavenly dreams Taken away taken all away Lost city they've taken it all away Beauty of life was ours forever The nature of it all But sinners of greed took their poisons of evil And turned it on the world The soul is nothing without hope And that has finally died An evil dream of endless sorrow has become reality Our broken wings can't fly no more For we've become the past Chilling wars have come and gone The innocents were slain Senseless k**ing insane acts The torture and the pain No life is safe upon this earth When others sound our voice For up till now it's misery that's leading man to die Life's beauty was once proudly displayed For everyone to see A gift from heaven given to earth What a sight unleashed Then through the ages changes occurred The beauty it started to fade All of the charm was taken away The angel loses its wings Lost city we are there if only in our minds Forever they've taken it all away The queen's crown torn from her head Sealing the end of us all The fading of freedom leaves us to wonder Will it ever return? They've taken it away!
