Divine Ascension take the genre of female fronted metal to a whole new level. The band continue to surprise metal fans the world over with its iconic breed of melodic/progressive metal. A definite force to be reckoned with in the emerging metal scene, Divine Ascension hail from Melbourne, Australia and are led by the enigmatic Jennifer Borg - a voice once heard, not easily forgotten. DA's second album Liberator is following on from their highly acclaimed debut As The Truth Appears.
Their debut album’s successes were many, brining in rave reviews and allowing the band to play alongside symphonic power metal masters Kamelot during their first ever Australian tour in 2013. The release of Liberator will see Divine Ascension’s reach grow further. Soon metal fans will be split into two groups, those who have heard Divine Ascension and those who are about to.

New World
Divine Ascension Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Leave them in the fray
Once was so familiar
Gone withered away
Now we wander
Far from course
Determined to gain clarity
Electrify the source
To justify your worth
A legend in the travelers story
Walk the newfound earth
Making a start
Dance the desire
Trusting the heart
In the new world
A dream of yesterday
The future so unclear
What have we done what kind of sane
Are we leaving here
Somewhere attraction
Lost its face
Beyond our comprehension
Before our eyes without a trace
Do you want to bathe in sunlight
For the days to come
For acceptance was my finest hour
What is gone is done
Now I'm making a start
Dance my desire
Trusting my heart
Embracing the fire
In the new world
A dream of yesterday
Do you want to bathe in sunlight
Find glory from rebirth
Salvation in what's left behind
Walk the newfound earth
Making a start
Dance your desire
Trusting your heart
In the new world
We don't see our responsibility
Far from what we dreamed
Where there's hope when the vultures fly away
Through the fields of grey
A dream of yesterday

While things lay
As things lie dormant
Leave them in the fray
Let them be, amidst the chaos of life
Once was so familiar
A past that was well-known
Gone withered away
Lost and faded into obscurity
Now we wander
We travel aimlessly
Far from course
Away from our intended path
Determined to gain clarity
Determined to find understanding
Electrify the source
Energize the process of discovery
I hear you want to bathe in glory
I understand your desire for recognition
To justify your worth
To prove your value as a person
A legend in the travelers story
An unforgettable character in tales of adventure
Walk the newfound earth
Explore this new world we have discovered
Making a start
Beginning our journey
Dance the desire
Move forward with passion
Trusting the heart
Reliant on our instincts
In the new world
In this new era
A dream of yesterday
A memory of the past
The future so unclear
We have no idea what lies ahead
What have we done what kind of sane
What actions have led us here and were they rational
Are we leaving here
Is this our final destination
Somewhere attraction
The allure of something unknown
Lost its face
Became unfamiliar and unknown
Beyond our comprehension
More than we can understand
Before our eyes without a trace
Disappeared from our sight
Do you want to bathe in sunlight
Do you crave positivity and brightness
For the days to come
In anticipation of the future
For acceptance was my finest hour
When I was accepted, I was at my best
What is gone is done
We can't change the past
Now I'm making a start
I am embarking on a new journey
Embracing the fire
Boldly facing challenges
Find glory from rebirth
Achieve great success through starting anew
Salvation in what's left behind
Redemption in what we left in the past
We don't see our responsibility
We do not understand our duty
Far from what we dreamed
Not what we had imagined
Where there's hope when the vultures fly away
Hope exists when negativity disappears
Through the fields of grey
Through times of uncertainty
