Story behind the song
All in the lyrics
Lyrics
Civilization Lost (c) 1987 Urgent Dispatch Ltd.
Aztec Warrior On the Plain
Looking t'ward the sky
temple priest lifts his head
there will be a sign
full moon on that altar stone
this is what we saw
--pc
our sacrifice of human blood
feeds the spirit war
--
NO OTHER TIME NO OTHER PLACE
ADVANCED AS FAR AS THIS
CIVILIZATION LOST IN TIME
WILL IT EVEN BE MISSED
----
dagger evil snakes and swords
destiny comes in
built on ruins our old tribes
here to find agin
never ever would have known
if we were alone
----pc
the sacrifice of human blood
waits for us on stone
----
ch
----
nowadays they look and laugh
we are not amused
never could it have been like that
they are just confused
digging through our pyramids
looking for our gold
--pc
that sacrifice of human blood
never getting old
----
ch
----
never could they have known it then
back in those past days
we just couldn't appease those men
who came and bled the race
nothing left here anymore
in that small sacred place
--pc
a sacrifice of human blood
was our one small saving grace
----
