Nocturnus AD - Paleolithic

Текст песни

Over two million years ago
The emergence of primitive man
The first human development
Of the old Stone Age
The Pleistocene epoch, bringing glacial onset
Initiating climactic cycle, the Gelasian stage
Rapid changes occurring, ice sheets melting
Causing rising sea levels
Altered environment, worldwide change
Paleolithic era, Quarternary Period, land masses forming
Earth evolving, ice age ending, changes occurring
New plants growing, life reappearing, emergence of man
Cultural stage, human development, using stone-made tools
Grouping together in small societies, ensuring their survival
Using stones, making weapons, hunting wild animals
Gathering food, creating housing for their shelter
Discovering fire, cooking food, defending off predators
Raw material, core prepared, centripetal reduction
Removing flakes made of stone, achieving desired results
New techniques, great advancement for early man
Building rafts, the need to travel across the water
Moving farther, discovering lands, migrating across the globe
Creating weapons for survival based on hierarchy
Animal carvings, cave paintings
Forms of magic, ensuring a successful hunt
Shamanistic practices, symbolic patterns
Depictions of half-human half-animal beings
Tribal society, animal cults, sacrificial hunting ceremonies
Altered states of consciousness through group ritual
Religious practice, honoring the dead, first human burial
Excarnation, ritual defleshing, preparing for the afterlife
Afterlife, afterlife
