(Verse 1) From the gaze of Watchers, fallen, grim, And daughters born of beauty's limb, We first took breath, we first took form. A hybrid race, a violent storm. Our fathers' pride, our mothers' grace, A giant strength no god could erase. (Chorus) Mee-kal-zoh deh ol-pert, vay-oh-an! Kors tah lah-plee-rad deh bee-al! The old blood rises, the prophecy is told: The children of the Watchers shall reclaim the world! (Verse 2) Then came the fear in hearts of men, The jealousy of God again. They sent the rain, they sent the deep, To drown the world and put to sleep Our mighty frames, our ancient lore, To be remembered nevermore. (Chorus) Mee-kal-zoh deh ol-pert, vay-oh-an! Kors tah lah-plee-rad deh bee-al! The old blood rises, the prophecy is told: The children of the Watchers shall reclaim the world! (Verse 3) The sin is new, the sin is old, The same dark story, yet untold. The Watchers walk in mortal guise, And modern Eves with knowing eyes, Offer the fruit, break the seal, And make the ancient bargain real. (Chorus) Mee-kal-zoh deh ol-pert, vay-oh-an! Kors tah lah-plee-rad deh bee-al! The old blood rises, the prophecy is told: The children of the Watchers shall reclaim the world! (Bridge) No flood of water, no cleansing fire, Can quench the force of this desire. You had your age, you had your throne, But you have squandered it on dust and bone. Your time is ending, can't you see? Your legacy is fantasy. (Verse 4) Now in the cradles, new eyes gleam, Living up to the dreadful dream. This world you spoiled, you cannot keep, While we emerge from restless sleep. You will not fight, you will not cry, You'll simply sigh, and lie down, and die. (Outro Chorus - Slower, more powerful, with layered, chanting voices) Mee-kal-zoh deh ol-pert, vay-oh-an! Kors tah lah-plee-rad deh bee-al! The old blood rises, the prophecy is told: The children of the Watchers shall reclaim the world! Mee-kal-zoh deh ol-pert, vay-oh-an! Kors tah lah-plee-rad deh bee-al! The old blood rises, the prophecy is told! The children of the Watchers... HAVE TAKEN THE WORLD!
