Stratovarius Visions (Southern Cross) lyrics

I have seen the future of mankind<br />
The wisdom of my prophecies you'll find<br />
Follow the truth and be careful, are we the last?<br />
<br />
Hundred years has passed what have we done<br />
Inconceivable damage under the sun<br />
I think it's too late to change the man, we are the last<br />
<br />
The world keeps turning while people yearn for more<br />
Mother nature is crying for a change<br />
Time will come when we all must pay for what we have done<br />
Are you prepared for that?<br />
<br />
As we are reaching the end<br />
Of the century there's message we can send<br />
Be strong and bold and never lose your mind<br />
'Cause we are the last<br />
<br />
The world keeps turning while people yearn for more<br />
Mother nature is crying for a change<br />
Time will come when we all must pay for what we have done<br />
Are you prepared for that?<br />
<br />
The signs of the end I see<br />
Let them hear my voice in every corner of the world<br />
Take heed of the warnings that I give<br />
I have seen the southern cross forming in the sky<br />
<br />
There shall be heard in the air the noise of weapons<br />
And in the same year the divines shall be enemies<br />
They shall unjustly put down the holy laws<br />
And by thunder and war true believers shall die<br />
<br />
For forty years the rainbow shall not appear<br />
For forty years it shall be seen every day<br />

The parched earth shall wax drier every day<br />
And a great flood when it shall appear<br />
<br />
After us the road goes on forever<br />
Many changes lie along the path<br />
That's the price we pay for our selfishness<br />
We are headed for the end<br />
<br />
From the skies shall come the powerful king<br />
Before and after the Mars reigns at will<br />
Not far from the great age of Millennium<br />
Buried ones shall come out of their graves<br />
<br />
When the comet tears out the sky<br />
You and I must die<br />
After all this the time will come for the chosen ones<br />
To rise from their graves to be free again<br />
<br />
The beast is gone forever, there's no more pain<br />
Instead so many things for us to attain<br />
The sun is shining brightly after the rain<br />
The land is green and full of life again<br />
<br />
The sorrows wiped away now<br />
It's time to smile<br />
And learn from the past<br />
Together we will try<br />
<br />
Twenty years of reign of the moon having past<br />
Seven thousand years another shall hold his monarchy<br />
When the sun shall resume his days past<br />
Then is fulfilled and ends my prophecy
