Dark Fate of Atlantis
Luca Turilli's Rhapsody Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Thousands of years ago, at the limits of our world
A new kingdom rose on water, a new golden age for all

Human minds or entities, sons of astral infinity
But for sure the great Poseidon found his people and his throne

Old world, to you we all belonged
Old world, the stars announced your fall
Ignotum fatum

Monumental growth, breaking rules of history
The lost continent was legend, soon the legend became myth

Power, strenght, prosperity, once too close to divinity
Until water became fire and swallowed all its lore

Old world, the Icarus’ last fault
Old world, your fate lives on and on
Ignotum fatum

Dark mantis, dark fate of Atlantis
At the gates of a timeless dimension
Dwell the ghosts of a myth not forgotten
Kept by the sirens and their infinite cry
The one surviving the ocean’s might

Dark mantis, dark fate of Atlantis
At the gates of a timeless dimension
Dwell the ghosts of a myth not forgotten
Kept by the sea lords and their infinite force
The one surviving the Gods’ remorse


Vita e morte in quell’umana vis
Che vibra ed arde vivida nei secoli

Old world, to you we all belonged
Old world, the stars announced your fall
Ignotum fatum

Dark mantis, dark fate of Atlantis
At the gates of a timeless dimension
Dwell the ghosts of a myth not forgotten
Kept by the sirens and their infinite cry
The one surviving the ocean’s might

Dark mantis, dark fate of Atlantis
At the gates of a timeless dimension
Dwell the ghosts of a myth not forgotten
Kept by the sea lords and their infinite force
The one surviving the Gods’ remorse





Dark mantis, dark fate of Atlantis

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Luca Turilli's Rhapsody's song Dark Fate of Atlantis tells the story of an ancient kingdom that rose to power and prosperity thousands of years ago at the limits of our world. This new golden age was found on water and was ruled by the great Poseidon, who was considered a god by the people. Despite being the sons of astral infinity, the kingdom of Atlantis broke the rules of history and grew monumentally. Their power, strength, and prosperity were so great that they were considered too close to divinity. However, their prosperity did not last as water became fire and swallowed all its lore.

It's amazing at 4:05 when he mix his head voice with his operatic technique. One of the best singers I've ever heard...

Armando Tudon

I missed Conti in Turilli's projet. I felt his voice was the perfect fit.

Thallium T

Now you have his voice in Twilight Force

MEZH

No ma, la gente que se queja de Alessandro es porque neta no lo han escuchado en vivo, es un Dios, así literal te saca las lágrimas de lo perfecto que es.

Oscar Simón

Igual, la producción en los discos lo dejó un poquito enterrado.

Alejandro Domínguez

+Jackie Mezh Torres A mi gusto le falta un poco de actitud. Es raro verlo mas dinamico ante la camara que ante el publico xD Y eso se refleja en su voz, a veces le falta un poco de emocion :c

Nathan Russo

Yo no entiendo que pasa con todos... pero es un temaso!! Me encanta este tema... en toda su composicion... es otra banda no mas eso es todo... los coros entre medio es genial y despues cuando alessandro canta lirico la rompe...!

Ivan Murador

No me termina de gustar mucho la mezcla de ese disco, digo el sonido general. En el siguiente quedo impecable. De todos modos la labor de Conti es notable, impecable. Aunque tengo entendido que en vivo no rinde tanto, le falta algo de potencia a su voz, al menos en unos cuantos videos que vi.

Elizabeth Floyd

The singer's voice is beyond amazing! The choir gives me goosebumps! Overall rating... unreal!

Pedro Henrique

Alessandro como um bom italiano já afirmou ter estudado canto lírico/ópera e nessa parte3:40 até 3:55 ele mostra isso. Músicas como tormento passione,notturno e Luna também mostram as técnicas. Lione que o indicou para esse projeto, quando Turilli disse que estava a procura de um Vocalista
