The Old Gods Return lyrics

Now is the time the moon is in alignment

With the unknown zodiac, the untold sign

Of the fiery maniac within each breast

Awaits a stirring iridescent whirring

Of a six eyed god whose wings beat

In a time so odd, so very odd

And we're all lost, all of us blessedly lost

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever

Now is the time the old gods return

Now is the time the old gods return

Exactly when the world is not expecting it

Exactly when we're sure of ourselves

That's exactly when the old gods return

And sweep our cities back into hell

Now is the time that the old gods return

Now is the time that water begins to burn

Now is the time that the apes take wing

And we recognize them from that Oz thing

And we realize it was a prophecy

We realize it was a prophecy

Yeah the old gods laugh, it amuses them

The old gods laugh

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever

Now is the time the old gods return

Now is the time the old gods return

Exactly when the world is not expecting it

Exactly when we're sure of ourselves

That's exactly when the old gods return

And sweep our cities...

And sweep our cities back into hell

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever and ever

Forever forever and ever

Now is the time the old gods return

Now is the time the old gods return

Now is the time the old gods return

Now is the time the old gods return
