Children Of The Sea Lyrics

In the misty morning, on the edge of time
Weve lost the rising sun, a final sign
As the misty morning rolls away to die

   These interpretations crack me up !!! It's about the book of enoch and the fallen angels that came down to the mountain to make a pack that they would sleep with mortal women and create giants.
