pride & fear

Once a realm on the shoulders of giants
王國曾屹立在巨人的臂膀
Forged with ember and gold
灰燼中涅槃著金碧輝煌
An empire stood through the clouds, it was endless
這宏偉帝國幅員遼闊直達雲霄
Stories of peace it foretold
千百年來這裡都安寧祥和

Where sea meets sky, emerald water in moonlight
那海天交接的地平線上明月宛如玉盤
Mountain tops kissed with snow
峻峭的山頂積著皚皚白雪
People held up the legends of bounty
豐收的佳話代代相傳
Reaping the peace that they sowed
播種下和平的果實

But one by one, in secret, planted greed
但年復一年貪婪紮下禍根
And watered it with pride and fear
驕傲與恐懼灌溉著這幼苗

Seasons changed, like the turning of tides
四季輪迴如同潮起潮落
The blossoms started to fade
盛放的花朵也漸漸凋零
The air grew heavy, electric in warning
空氣凝重起來電閃雷鳴予以警告
The greedy knelt down and they prayed
貪欲之人雙膝跪地虔誠地祈禱

They begged for peace, for the legends of bounty
祈求著和平與豐收的延續
No one planted or sowed
但卻早已無人播種
The secrets grew like the storm in the distance
不見天日的秘密宛如風捲殘雲
Came to collect what they owed
卷過人們曾經的餘孽

But one by one, in secret, planted greed
但年復一年貪婪紮下禍根
And watered it with pride and fear
驕傲與恐懼灌溉著這幼苗
The poisoned fruit fell not far from the tree
惡果在樹下轟然墜地
The fiend that nobody could see
隱匿著自己無人知曉

Once a realm on the shoulders of giants
王國曾屹立在巨人的臂膀
Forged with ember and gold
灰燼中涅槃著金碧輝煌
Now a lost land, it's fading in silence
如今卻是斷垣殘壁在寂靜中消亡
Haunted by demons and ghosts
惡魔與鬼魂肆意出沒
