Land Of Life
Cydonia Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
the emperor sees his kingdom burn
he sees his life again, battles and triumphs
and suffering he takes his sword
The end is near, tragic and mean
Not even he managed to stop them
But this is war, sad and unfair
A short time is left, death waits for him
As a hero he reaches his throne
One last prayer alone, some magic takes place
His soul gives life to Cydonia
There is no revenge in his heart, and right now
He'll be awake in the silence
He powerful will see the Gods in Heaven
A Divinity with an eternal soul.
Finally I can fly free in the sky, flying like a rainbow
Touching the stars and reigning in eternity
Cydonia Land of Life
When one day the entire planet will die
My Land will be free
Time will not be enough to eradicate this
The great fighting soul
And I want to see forever, to give out
Energy from my heart and my face to be
Silence in time, of a God, always inflamed
There is no revenge in his heart, and right now
He'll be awake in the silence
He powerful will see the Gods in Heaven
A Divinity with an eternal soul
Finally I can fly free in the sky, flying like a rainbow
Touching the stars and reigning in eternity
Cydonia Land of Life
But where is a planet without life in space
Where the spirit of a great King is still reigning
But where is a planet without life in space
Where the spirit of a great King is still reigning
Touching the start and reigning in eternity
Cydonia Land of Life
The lyrics to Cydonia's song "Land of Life" tell the story of a once great emperor who has been abandoned in the midst of a raging battle. As he looks out at the flames engulfing everything he has built, he reflects on his life, remembering the battles he fought and won, as well as the suffering he endured along the way. In his final moments, he takes hold of his sword and bravely faces death, hoping that his fighting spirit will find peace. As he dies, he prays for his soul to be transferred to a new life form, and through some kind of magic, his soul gives life to a new entity, Cydonia.
The song is steeped in themes of war, heroism, and the desire for immortality. The emperor's story is one of tragedy, as he realizes that his power and ambition were not enough to stop the forces that ultimately destroyed him. Despite this, he remains unflinching in his determination to face death with honor and dignity, hoping that his legacy will live on through his rebirth as Cydonia. In the end, the song expresses a deep sense of hope and wonder, as the newly created entity is able to fly free in the sky, touching the stars and reigning in eternity.

Abandoned among flames, fear in his heart
The emperor is left alone amidst destruction and feels fear
the emperor sees his kingdom burn
The emperor observes his empire being destroyed
he sees his life again, battles and triumphs
With his life flashing before his eyes, he recalls past victories
and suffering he takes his sword
Amidst pain and anguish, he draws his sword
The end is near, tragic and mean
The end of the battle and his life is approaching in a sorrowful manner
Not even he managed to stop them
Even the emperor's might could not hold off the invaders
But this is war, sad and unfair
The war is an unjust and distressing situation
Will his fighting spirit find peace
Will the emperor's warrior spirit find solace in death?
A short time is left, death waits for him
The emperor knows that he has only a small amount of time left before he dies
As a hero he reaches his throne
In his final moments, the emperor manages to make it back to his throne as a hero
One last prayer alone, some magic takes place
As he is alone, he offers up his final prayer and something inexplicable happens
His soul gives life to Cydonia
The emperor's soul gives birth to a new world called Cydonia
There is no revenge in his heart, and right now
The emperor's heart is free from any desire for retribution and vengeance
He'll be awake in the silence
In his new form, the emperor will be conscious in the silence
He powerful will see the Gods in Heaven
As a deity, he will be able to perceive heavenly beings
A Divinity with an eternal soul.
The emperor has become a deity with an immortal essence
Finally I can fly free in the sky, flying like a rainbow
The new world of Cydonia is vivid, colorful, and full of life
Touching the stars and reigning in eternity
Cydonia is a world that extends beyond the limits of time and space
When one day the entire planet will die
In the future, planet Earth will eventually perish
My Land will be free
But Cydonia will continue to live on without any limitations
Time will not be enough to eradicate this
The new world of Cydonia is everlasting and cannot be destroyed by time
The great fighting soul
The emperor's warrior spirit lives on
And I want to see forever, to give out
The emperor longs to exist forever and distribute his power
Energy from my heart and my face to be
He wants his energy to radiate from both heart and countenance
Silence in time, of a God, always inflamed
Cydonia is a place where silence reigns and a divine being is always present
But where is a planet without life in space
Is there a lifeless planet in the vastness of the universe?
Where the spirit of a great King is still reigning
A spectral realm where a mighty emperor continues to rule
Touching the stars and reigning in eternity
Cydonia, a realm of undying souls that governs the cosmos
