About this song
She was an angel once. Then Mirrodin fell, and four Praetors built their masterpiece. This dark anthem tells the story of Atraxa - the voice of New Phyrexia, spreading perfection across the multiverse one counter at a time.
Lyrics
(Verse 1) I remember wings of light A halo burning gold and bright I remember mercy in my hands Before the oil changed my plans They took me down in Mirrodin Stripped the grace beneath my skin Four voices whispered what I'd be And built their perfect blasphemy (Pre-Chorus) Elesh Norn gave me her vision Jin-Gitaxias gave me thought Sheoldred gave me endless hunger Vorinclex gave what nature wrought Only one refused to touch me The red one turned away But four is all perfection needs To birth a god of decay (Chorus) I am the Praetors' Voice The angel they remade Every breath spreads the blessing Every touch, a gift of plague I do not sleep, I do not falter Wings of blackened chrome What once was holy now is perfect Phyrexia is my home (Verse 2) My eyes see every counter climb My presence multiplies through time What grows beneath my gaze grows strong The faithful swell, the weak are gone You think corruption, I see grace Each cell rewritten, each embrace The multiverse will understand Perfection spreads from where I stand (Pre-Chorus) I was the first of their creations The proof that angels fall Now I carry their ambition And I will touch them all (Chorus) I am the Praetors' Voice The angel they remade Every breath spreads the blessing Every touch, a gift of plague I do not sleep, I do not falter Wings of blackened chrome What once was holy now is perfect Phyrexia is my home (Bridge) Do you remember what I was? I don't Do you mourn the light I lost? I won't There is no angel left to save Just purpose, rising from the grave Four colors flow through metal veins White and black and blue and green The voice of praetors never wanes The most perfect thing you've ever seen (Final Chorus) I am the Praetors' Voice Salvation redesigned Every end becomes beginning Every soul becomes aligned I will never stop ascending Watch my influence climb What once was one becomes a thousand I am the end of time
