Lumerian
Soen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Gathering all the hidden keys
Turning rocks to diamonds
I′ll lead you in
I will make it easy now
Turn unrest to comfort
By my side you may close your eyes
And I'll be your guidance
Come suffering, let me be your medicine
Lay your hopes on me

We′re hunting blind and aimless
Embracing gods to feel their light
We fell from grace right into the unknown

I believe
That in the end we could be something more
But every trace of who we are is gone
Still I hope we could be the ones
Be the ones
And I see
How we surrender for the endless greed
And we do nothing to prevent its spear
To keep piercing into our hearts
Our hearts

Open minds unveil the disguise
Of the friendly imposter
Who lures you in
Wearing a warmhearted grin
To leech off your vein

We are done
Feeding the machine
Losing trail of our only home

We're hunting blind and aimless
Embracing gods to feel their light
We fell from hope right into the unknown

A day will come
A time to deal with what we did
And our pride will crumble down on us
Someday we'll scream
To raise our voice for our belief
Together we can change the fate of all

I believe
That in the end we could be something more
But every trace of who we are is gone
Still I hope we could be the ones
Be the ones
And I see
How we surrender for the endless greed
And we do nothing to prevent its spear
To keep piercing into our hearts




Our hearts
Our hearts

like if you miss the old times of lemuria!
some of us have lived there, million of years ago, spiritually highly advanced in harmony and bliss.
it was eden,
and we will return there..
once the veil has fallen,
and the dark overlords are gone,
new atlantis will be born!
love and unity will once again be our true state of being!
