Iced Earth - Something Wicked (Part 1)

Framing Armageddon (Something Wicked, part 1) - 2007 I can see clearly now A painful vision indeed An attempt at genocide, 12,000 years of pain The human thirst for dominance Leads them to Setian ground The gravest of all threats now exists All galaxies could suffer Imagine the consequence if Man does succeed The universe and all that lives will suffer evermore Like a virus Man will spread Through the time continuum It's a power they can't comprehend A power we must secure So heed my word A prophecy that's bleak and haunting Acceptance not fear Will pave the wave for life returning The Elder foreseen In Sacred Flames our world is burning Yet more things are clear By grand design, punishment unfolding Faith in the prophecy We'll take this tragedy, unite as one Fate, show man no sympathy Something Wicked feeds, thy will be done Ten thousand souls One for every year of framing One of thirteen The High Priest and the twelve that council Charged with our tome Retribution for our loved ones suffering In secret they'll meet A global network that endures for centuries Faith in the prophecy We'll take this tragedy, unite as one Fate, show man no sympathy Something Wicked feeds, thy will be done
