Zaphnath-Paaneah Songtext
von Exterior Palnet

If no means no
and words have no meaning
Your eyes no longer closed
but you keep dreaming

Do you still have that sense
of the impending doom
I didn′t mean to hurt you
but yes I do

You wouldn't have said such things
if you′d seen what I've seen
Further from the hell
in which you've never been

Never together
we′ll gather forever
No time to gather all
it took you forever


Don′t wait for the turmoil
here, none shall be safe from
Don't wait for the turmoil
here none shall be safe
here none shall be safe

In this skeptical night
serenity is death in disguise
Apathy is also death
all now be fearful and judged

Arrival of the alien child
Arrival at the alien child
Hail the unknown stranger
He who watches your burning world

Seeing festering maggots blindfolded
as they scour the earth
With centrefold removed
World left burning

As it should
As it should!
World left burning
As it should!


Mystery of the flight is solved
It took only a night to believe
His eyes are filled with pride
Watching their dominions bleed

In void untamed where darkness thrives
Through cosmic storms where terror shines
Hail the alien child
Hail the alien child

In void untamed where darkness thrives
Through cosmic storms where terror shines
where terror shines

Unknown stranger, we salute you—ZAPHNATH!
Burn our world and crush our will—PAANEAH!

Unknown stranger, we salute you—ZAPHNATH!
Burn our world and crush our will—PAANEAH!

Mystery of the flight is solved
It took only a night to believe
His eyes are filled with pride
Watching their dominions bleed

I am the brother of mankind
and owe to thee my love
And as the first law is broken
By my guilt I am the master of my fate
Praise the living soul
There is no limitation to that
which I may (or may not) do...
