Astronomica - Manilla Road

Introduction

Under the stars

It’s written in the cards,

All the myths that bards

Have sung through history.

The future’s not so cold

Just trust the ways of old

Magik can save the soul

And set the spirit free.

It’s not just fantasy.

1st verse

Heavenly bodies,

Astrological minds,

Seeking out the wisdom

Of the stars at night,

To snatch from the heavens

The thunderbolt of light

And then the sceptre

From the tyrant’s side.

Night after night

They shine on so bright,

All the ancient lights

Shall never fade away.

Astronomica!

The laws that bind us all

To keep us from the fall

Unto the stars we gaze

And pray.

2nd Verse

Living for the future,

Living for the night,

Living for the masters

Holy guardians of light.

Jupiter is rising

O’er the table round,

Sword of Fire and Lightning

Ancient Rites have found.

Fight after fight

They shine on so bright

All the ancient knights

Shall never fade away

Astronomica!

The laws that bind us all

To keep us from the fall

Unto the stars we gaze

And pray.

3rd Verse

Universal wisdom

Of the Gods of old;

A conquerer’s freedom

Is the danger zone.

Astronomic wasteland

Darkened and cold

Where the new born King stands

With sword of the throne.

Night after night

They shine on so bright

All the ancient lights

Shall never fade away.

Astronomica,

The laws that bind us all

To keep us from the fall

Unto the stars we gaze

And pray.
