[00:03.12]Ten Thousand Strong
[00:05.27]Iced Earth
[00:09.27]Make by E.D&C
[00:13.72]A gathering summoned by the Elder
[00:17.17]The consequence of what`s imminent
[00:20.00]A prophecy dark foreboding
[00:23.15]Forces them to face human intent
[00:27.20]The chosen seek refuge in the mountains
[00:29.87]Reluctantly their loved ones recognize
[00:33.64]The sacrifice they must adhere to
[00:36.20]The only hope for future Setian life
[00:38.41]Like a Martyr sacrifice
[00:43.58]Await the day of clouding
[00:46.05]Earth mother`s sharing in our pain
[00:49.86]Erase the human memory
[00:53.03]They know not of where they came
[00:56.46]And though our hearts are broken
[00:59.60]We have to wipe the tears away
[01:03.07]In vain they did not suffer
[01:05.95]Then Thousand Strong will seize the day
[01:12.08]What we possess. Mankind is after
[01:12.83]Direct descendants of the Architect
[01:15.90]Children of God, seeds of creation
[01:18.86]The stakes so high we must never relent
[01:23.16]While in wait till human minds are clouded
[01:26.14]Initiation of the Master Plan
[01:29.25]Assimilate and build new life among them
[01:32.17]Centuries will past, patience will win
[01:34.70]We are the bane of man
[01:39.89]Await the day of clouding
[01:42.38]Earth mother`s sharing in our pain
[01:45.67]Erase the human memory
[01:48.52]They know not of where they came
[01:52.31]And though our hearts are broken
[01:55.38]We have to wipe the tears away
[01:59.04]In vain they did not suffer
[02:01.87]Then Thousand Strong will seize the day
[02:05.85]
[02:32.12]Await the day of clouding
[02:35.37]Earth mother`s sharing in our pain
[02:38.74]Erase the human memory
[02:41.89]They know not of where they came
[02:45.25]And though our hearts are broken
[02:48.49]We have to wipe the tears away
[02:51.92]In vain they did not suffer
[02:54.98]Then Thousand Strong will seize the day
