The Seven Angels
Avantasia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Rage of god is coming down
Armaggeddon's drawing nigh
Sinner cry ! Heathen die !
Hear the toll of pain, gloria, gloria
In the fiery rain
Fire falling from the sky
Armaggeddon's drawing nigh
Sinner cry ! Heathen die !
Hear the toll of pain, gloria, gloria
Now the time has come, the end's begun
And the only one will come
It has been foretold
By the visions of the old
And the madness in their eyes
Said his angel will arise
That's what they know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god
We have done no wrong
So we go where we belong
To the neverending dream
But for those who lived in sin"
They claim to know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god"
Hey Angel, can you tell me
Will you lead us to the place
Full of heat, in the fire
For we only brought disgrace
He is not the one. If they only knew
Hey Angel, will you take us
To the judgement of his rage
Hey will we die
For we couldn't close the gate
To the knowledge as they have been told
I don't know how could I prove
Nothing but the cloven hoof
Reigning over them as well
While they keep on fighting hell
Babylon the scarlet whore has come
We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away
We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away
Redeemer, devastion
Hope it only has been ment
For the sin of the dreamer
who broke the low you'd sent
He is not the one. If they only knew
Hey, don't know but i wondered:
When we lost the seal again
Maybe stoned by the incense
Do we rise or just descent
He is not the one. If they only knew
I don't know how could I prove
Nothing but the cloven hoof
Reigning over them as well
While they keep on fighting hell
Babylon the scarlet whore has come
We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away
We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away
Woe to you longing for the wisdom
Woe to you longing for the light
All my sons bring me back what is mine
Or you'll end burning in this night
Woe to you longing for the wisdom
Woe to you longing for the light
All my sons bring me back what is mine
Or you'll end burning in this night
Once I have been lost in what they told me to believe
Until I felt in burning deep inside to set my spirit free
And I escaped to another world to help the little men
Who make me plunge into philosophy - to feel my
Mind again... No one left to hold me tight - on the
'real'other side - but her in chains
I had been alone till the madman come along
With the knowledge and silver long beard
He was the first man ever teaching how I could be free
Helping me to find - oh - the mind and the soul
They've been trying to hide away...
And he promised we'd help Anna if I'd help him to
Go all the way
Go all the way into the world of minds
Open the gate and do not close behind
Prevent them from hiding the light away
Prevent them from tellin' us tales
Or the end of all they scare us with will be a
Million empty brains...
I could bring you what you told me
The seal they need to close the gate forever
But still I haven't found a meaning
Anna will we ever be together
You've been fighting for your soul
And sometimes it takes a toll
Hope one day you'll understand
What it means to hold in hands
What they call a fantasy
It is nothing but a key
To the world that now you're in
That they call a wicked dream
When you're walking on your own
When you're broken and alone
You may feel us from inside -
on the other side of life.
Ohohohoh...
I've been fighting for my soul
And sometimes it takes a toll
Hope one day we'll understand
What it means to hold in hands
What we call a fantasy
But it's nothing but a key
To the world that now I'm in
That we call a wicked dream
Oh, walking on my own
When I'm broken and alone
I may feel you from inside

The Seven Angels by Avantasia is a song that talks about the end of the world and the final judgment. The lyrics depict the wrath of God as He sends fire from the sky to destroy the heathen, while the sinner cries. The song also reveals the prophecy of the old visionaries, who foretold the emergence of the holy angel, who will arise at the end of time, as well as the Babylonian scarlet whore who has come. The song leaves a message of hope and redemption for those who have been fighting for their souls amidst the war between good and evil.
The Seven Angels is a prime example of a concept song that is deeply rooted in religious beliefs. The song tells the story of the Apocalypse, which is the end of the world according to Christianity. The lyrics can be interpreted in various ways, depending on one's beliefs and understanding of the Bible. However, the overall message seems to be about the importance of making a choice between good and evil before it is too late, as well as the importance of hope and redemption.

Fire falling from the sky
Brimstone raining from the heavens
Rage of god is coming down
God's fury descends upon us
Armaggeddon's drawing nigh
The end of days is near at hand
Sinner cry ! Heathen die !
Repent and pray before the coming apocalypse
Hear the toll of pain, gloria, gloria
The sound of lamentations amidst the flames of hell
In the fiery rain
Amidst the scorching inferno
Now the time has come, the end's begun
This is the moment of reckoning, the beginning of the end
And the only one will come
The chosen one shall arrive
It has been foretold
The prophecy has spoken
By the visions of the old
By the ancient seers' prophetic sight
And the madness in their eyes
In the frenzy of their prophetic trance
Said his angel will arise
They spoke of an angel who shall arise
That's what they know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god
We have done no wrong
So we go where we belong
To the neverending dream
But for those who lived in sin"
The righteous shall ascend to eternal life, but sinners shall be condemned to everlasting punishment
They claim to know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god"
They profess to know that the end is here and that God will judge the world
Hey Angel, can you tell me
Will you lead us to the place
Full of heat, in the fire
For we only brought disgrace
Oh, Angel, can you show us where to go? The flames of hell await us, for we have been disgraceful and unrepentant
He is not the one. If they only knew
The Chosen One is not who they expect
Hey Angel, will you take us
To the judgement of his rage
Hey will we die
For we couldn't close the gate
Dear Angel, will you guide us to the throne of judgment? Will we perish, unable to prevent the onslaught?
To the knowledge as they have been told
I don't know how could I prove
Nothing but the cloven hoof
Their beliefs are meaningless, but I have no way to convince them except to reveal the mark of the Devil
Reigning over them as well
While they keep on fighting hell
Even those who believe in God are tormented by Satan while they resist temptation
Babylon the scarlet whore has come
We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
The forces of evil have overtaken us, and the seven archangels shall judge us. But we ourselves are the angels
It's revelation, soul castignation
Fire will burn us away
Redeemer, devastion
Hope it only has been ment
For the sin of the dreamer
who broke the low you'd sent
This is the Book of Revelation, and our souls shall be judged and consumed by fire. The Redeemer has become a destroyer. I pray that this is only punishment for the sins of the misguided
Hey, don't know but i wondered:
When we lost the seal again
Maybe stoned by the incense
Do we rise or just descent
I wonder if we fell from grace when we broke the seal. Perhaps we were influenced by the smoke of the incense. Did we ascend or descend?
Woe to you longing for the wisdom
Woe to you longing for the light
All my sons bring me back what is mine
Or you'll end burning in this night
Those who seek knowledge and enlightenment shall be punished. My followers, return what you have stolen from me, or you shall perish in this inferno
Once I have been lost in what they told me to believe
Until I felt in burning deep inside to set my spirit free
And I escaped to another world to help the little men
Who make me plunge into philosophy - to feel my
Mind again... No one left to hold me tight - on the
'real'other side - but her in chains
I was once lost in the teachings of others, but then I felt a burning desire to free my spirit. I have journeyed to other worlds to share my knowledge with those who need it. No one is here to comfort me on the other side. Only she remains captive
I had been alone till the madman come along
With the knowledge and silver long beard
He was the first man ever teaching how I could be free
Helping me to find - oh - the mind and the soul
They've been trying to hide away...
I was alone until the madman came. He was the first to teach me how to free myself. He helped me find my mind and soul, which they tried to hide
And he promised we'd help Anna if I'd help him to
Go all the way
Go all the way into the world of minds
Open the gate and do not close behind
Prevent them from hiding the light away
Prevent them from tellin' us tales
Or the end of all they scare us with will be a
Million empty brains...
He promised to help me save Anna if I helped him enter the world of minds and prevent them from hiding the truth. We must not allow them to deceive us, or else we shall all be left with empty minds
I could bring you what you told me
The seal they need to close the gate forever
But still I haven't found a meaning
Anna will we ever be together
I have what you asked for, the seal that can close the gate forever. However, I still do not understand its purpose. Will we ever be reunited, Anna?
You've been fighting for your soul
And sometimes it takes a toll
Hope one day you'll understand
What it means to hold in hands
What they call a fantasy
It is nothing but a key
To the world that now you're in
That they call a wicked dream
You have been struggling to save your soul. It can be a difficult journey. Hopefully, one day you will understand what it means to hold the key. They claim it is only a fantasy, but it unlocks a world. It seems like a nightmare, but it is our reality
When you're walking on your own
When you're broken and alone
You may feel us from inside -
on the other side of life.
When you walk alone and feel lost, know that we are with you. We exist on the other side of life
I've been fighting for my soul
Hope one day we'll understand
What we call a fantasy
But it's nothing but a key
To the world that now I'm in
That we call a wicked dream
Oh, walking on my own
When I'm broken and alone
I may feel you from inside
From the other side of life
I have fought hard for my soul. I hope that one day we can all comprehend the truth. They say it's just a fantasy, but it's really a key to this insidious dream world. Although I walk alone and shattered, I can feel you from within, on the other side of life
