3. Set Your Controls

Welcome aboard, let me draw you deep inside
The dark caves of my twisted mind
Welcome aboard, take a seat and dim the light

Empty your mind, sit back and hold on tight

Break away through the walls of reality
Enter the realm on the other side
Break away from the cold rationality
Now is the time to open up your mind

Set your controls
Enter a date and see what our future holds
What kind of fate awaits us there in the night
As we dissolve into the light
Set your controls
Enter a place and witness mysteries unfold
Dangers we'll face as our engines ignite
Blazing our way into the light

Set your controls

Throw the switch, get ready for some turbulence
Brace yourself with all your might
Throw the switch and tempt the laws of providence

Empty your mind, sit back and hold on tight

Turn the dials and watch the years go by
Light years away, far beyond our sun
Turn the dials, into the void we fly
There's no way back once it has begun

The die is cast
You fade to black
Forget the past
There's no way back

4. High Moon

Memories come back to me, it's the 22nd century
Unthinkable events occur on the 3rd moon of Jupiter

I'd leave this hellhole if I could
The mining's hard but the pay is good
There is only one way to survive
I take the drug to stay alive

The shuttlecraft has landed, the killers have arrived
I know I'm alone here, there is no one on my side
I'm ready for the showdown, so let the chase begin
I will not be defeated
I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon

High moon

The company is trying to hide the higher rates of suicide
Here's no pain and much to gain, but then the drug destroys their brain

I gotta leave this evil place
I don't belong in outer space
Outside it's zero atmosphere
The only way to get out of here

He had to choose between his part in this machine
Or going back with her to earth
He never had a choice, but when he heard her voice
He fought for all that he was worth

I had to choose, I could not lose
Had to get back to you
I had no choice, I heard your voice
I had to survive, had to stay alive

5. Dreamtime

6. Eyes Of Time

IT SLOWLY DAWNS ON AYREON THAT THESE VISIONS HE IS EXPERIENCING
ARE VISIONS OF THE FUTURE BUT HE DOES NOT FULLY COMPREHEND
THEIR IMPORTANCE YET.

I cannot see with these eyes
my world is dark
like a cold eternal night

I could not tell you no lies
my words are lost
in a shroud of mysery

tell me what you see

I cannot tell you now
I see the world through the eyes of time

tell me what you feel

I wouldn't know how
I cannot free my mind
from the eyes of time

I do not know where I am
I'm lost in time
drifting in eternity

I cannot tell if it's real
or fantasy
or a view of things to come

I'm still trying to understand
why do I see the things I see
could it be a future world
that's warning us through me
I'm still trying to understand
why do I know the things I know
doe it mean I'm a god
will nobody tell me so?

IT ALL GETS TOO CONFUSING FOR AYREON AND THE THIN LINE BETWEEN
ILLUSION AND REALITY FADES.

7. Songs Of The Ocean

[Science officer:]
As we return to earth, memories are haunting me
My strange rebirth, coming back to life
I remember the dark and how my friends set me free
I sacrificed my life so they could survive

[Communications officer:]
There's something wrong on planet Earth
We can not reach our world
Some strange device slowly emerged
Can you hear the cries?
There's something wrong, what can we do?
We can't communicate
All systems fail, all power too
We can't reply

[Science officer:]
It must be unaware of the damage it's creating
They are reaching out to the seven seas
It's not with man they're communicating
We're going back in time, back in history

[Captain:]
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean

[Doctor:]
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean

8. Dawn Of A Million Souls

"The Big Bang has created one soul, the Universal Migrator. The Universal Migrator divides
itself, and each Migrator flies off independently in search of a habitable planet in order to
breathe life into it. I follow the migrator that will eventually reach our planet Earth."

At the birth of time, the beginning of beginnings
One cosmic soul was created
A bringer of life, a universal migrator
Born to sow its seeds in all the galaxies

Like a cell dividing, it spreads in all directions
Creating life among the stars
I'm struck with awe as I join the great migrator
Now it takes flight to the brightest star of all

On a quest for life, through the sable skies
What a show! behold!
The dawn of a million souls

On a bold crusade, in the realm of shade
What a show! behold!
The dawn of a million souls

Through the glowing mist, like a fog of radiation
I can see the forming of new planets
I've been struck by thunder as I witness all the splendor
And I realize how small we really are

Ooh, I can see forever
On the wings of dreams I fly
Is this real or is it just a fantasy?
What awaits me now at the end of this ride?

9. The Dream Sequencer

"It is the 22nd century. I am the last of the Mars Colonists. The air supply has almost run out
on this desolate Mars colony, and the food supplies from Earth have stopped arriving since the
final war of 2084. I am walking through the tunnel towards our recreation machine called the Dream
Sequencer. I hope it will sweeten my final days..."

(Dream sequencer system online)
Good morning colonist. You have selected the Universal Migrator program. Please lie down in the
energy tank and place the electrodes on your temples. Think of your designation number and drink
the fluid from the vessel at the left terminal.

(Program loaded, commencing U.M. preincarnation protocol)
Now focus on the music as I take you back to your chilhood......and beyond.....

10. Into The Black Hole

"We have reached our first destination: the black hole in the Virgo cluster of galaxies. But
what will we find inside? Its power is immeasurable. Our hopes and fears intermingle as we stand at
the event horizon. Will its doorway transport us to our faraway planet Earth, or will its fury
mercilessly tear us

apart?"

A dark sphere surrounds us
Surreal...oblivious...
In the centre of the galaxy
A hidden force has found us
Powerful...mysterious...
At the boundary of eternity

Nothing escapes, not even light
Beyond the mystical horizon
We surrender to its might
Gazing into the eye of the universe

A deep roar is sounding
Deafening...thunderous...
As if the universe were crying
My heart is pounding
Frantic...delirious...
My every nerve is dying

I hear screams of fallen souls, sad cries of agony
Within the void of this evil hole, deep inside the black

Could it be my imagination, the mirror of my fantasy?
A fear-induced hallucination
Or is there no way back from the halo of darkness?

Spirits – apparitions – misery – suffering
Horrid dreams and dire visions rising up from the black

Look away in disbelief, this cannot be happening
The end has come, I bow in grief
There is no way back from the halo of darkness

Now silence devours us
Massive...suffocating...
The calm before the storm
Gravity overpowers us
Invincible...dominating...
And leads us through the final door

Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feel my might, I'm the eye of the universe

11. Actual Fantasy

Sit back and relax
Crawl into the maze
Within your mind
Leave it all behind
Now allow yourself to
Slide into a world
As real as you want it to be
Actual fantasy

12. Valley Of The Queens

my journey's over
I'm standing on the edge
and close my eyes
to this world of lies

my will is broken
it's the end of all my dreams
my soul yearns
for the valley of the queens

my rose has withered
it will never bloom again
the soil is dry
time has come to die

my faith has left me
they've stolen all my dreams
oh lay me down
in the valley of the queens

my search has ended
my name is carved in stone
on the temple wall
beyond Osiris hall

no holy sunrays
will light my tomb of dreams
I won't return
from the valley of............the queens

14. Isis And Osiris

what heathen place is this that I've arrived in
is now the time I pay for all my sins
I can't believe that this is God's creation
this realm was fashioned by the Deil's ane hand

no it has been foretold, in our legends of old
wake the spirit within, let the journey begin

this quest you speak of is for redemption
how can we travel when our souls are lost
you think we find ourselves at gates of new salvation
when I can only sense the end is here

we're at the gates of Avalon, the island of spirits,
we're at the gates of Avalon, in search of the grail

there's no way out, slaves for eternity
down in the underworld, the jaws of Orcus
I call on Jupiter, the ruler of the gods
show us the way, from damnation to salvation

the fields of Yaaru lie waiting for us all
rejoice! the judges have ruled
we have been chosen to enter the great hall
of Isis and Osiris

no you're wrong, we're trapped here in darkness
among departed souls, and mislaid spirits
I call on Mars, the ancient god of war
grant me the power, to free me from this evil

can you see the stars? can you recognize the constellations?
if I could only see the hills that we're supposed to climb
even the sunlight.....it doesn't
warm.....doesn't wam
how are we gonna find our way?
if we can't recognize the stars, if we can't recognize the constellations
where do we go?

the quest you speak of, it isn't bound for glory
no grail exists within this heathen land
you think we find ourselves at gates of new salvation
when I can only sense...the end is near

15. Amazing Flight In Space

There is danger ahead. But do not be afraid. For I am with you like breath itself. Darkness will
lead to light – colour will bleed into the night. Beautiful colours, the like of which you have
never seen. Let the dream of confusion lead you into the virgin light! Be gone! Be all-seeing, be
brave...Be gone!

I'm lookin' 'round bewildered
is this some dark and evil jest?
what brought me to this cursed keep
perchance some crazy quest
god forbid I am no coward!
pitted against monster, man or ghost,
I'd wield my blade with crimson gusto
for I'm the proud barbarian host!

hey dude, you're so uncool
but hey, that's allright
like there's no need to get uptight
my eyes reflect the stars
and a smile lights up my face
we're on an amazing flight in space

I shook city, walls and towers
wreaking havoc in the streets
burned palaces of cow'rdly kings
not a one stood up to me
bear bloody banners in blazing skies!
brandish battle-axe and broadsword!
let drums of glory sound like thunder!
hail!! barbaric warlord!!

16. Intergalactic Space Crusader

We're on our way to a prison in space
Our last flight, the final phase
I was betrayed and now I've been caught
As the brains of a massive fraud

I can't remember, am I insane?
My mind is blank cos they emptied my brain
I will return, I will be back
I will unite us and we will attack

I don't care about your plans and schemes
Don't give a damn 'bout your righteous dreams
All that I do, I do for myself
I never cared for anyone else

We have to save them, we have to try
We can't just watch while the innocent die
Let's steal this ship and start our crusade
Powerful allies will come to our aid

Seven fighters
Navigators
Intergalactic space crusaders
Federation
Dictators
No scruples, lethal traitors
Outriders
Invaders
Intergalactic space crusaders
Domination
Liberators
Fighting to survive

Who on earth do you think that you are
Without me you wouldn't get far
I've had enough of your private war
Why are we fighting, what is it all for?

To right the wrong, to fight the good fight
Living like you just wouldn't be right
I am the leader, I have the skills
Either you leave or you yield to my will

I can't believe you gave us away
Although it hurts, I will make you pay
Don't understand, can't figure out why
All I know, you have to die!

Our strong bond couldn't keep us apart
I've always trusted you right from the start
You've been deceived, they're telling you lies
I'm still the same, I'm on your side

17. The Castle Hall

At last! you enter the Electric Castle! Here in this vast hall where even shadows fear the light
– here you must confront your past. If you have killed, beware of the Gathering of Spirits for they
do fish for men. Here, the disembodied Astral World becomes flesh once more. I pity the men of
swords. For here blood runs cold...

cries from the grave resound in my ears
they hail from beyond my darkest fears
faces of the past are etched in my brain
the women I raped, the men I've slain

shades of the dead are sliding on the wall
demons dance in the castle hall

I call upon the sword, the mighty Excalibur
grant me the skill to fulfill my quest

I call upon my king and the knights of the table round
grant me the courage to stand to this test

I call upon the seer, Merlin the sorcerer
grant me the magic to end my pain

I call upon the spirit that lives in a noble heart
grant me the passion that's within my veins

shades of the dead are sliding on the wall
demons dance in the castle hall

18. The Eye Of Ra

Far away in outer space
A traveller from another world left his dying race
He found our planet, full of life
In the body of a little boy he could survive
And Ra will live forever
He gains his powers from afar
And built a gateway to the stars

I have finally found the key
To chart a course to the other side of the galaxy
I need to find the seventh sign
Carved into the cover stones of an ancient time
And Ra will live forever
He draws his powers from afar
And built a gateway to the stars

Unaware of our coming fate
We disappear through the ancient gate
We arrive in a desert land
And set up camp on the burning sand
Behold, a thousand slaves
Mining ores in the planet's caves
They give us shelter from the storm
Then Ra appears in a human form

Ooh, up there in space
The Eye of Ra is watching over us

A tall ship descends from the sky
Lasers flare and many men die
A bloody battle has begun
We must destroy this 'king of the sun'

Ooh, up there in space
The Eye of Ra is watching over us
Ooh, an alien race
The Eye of Ra is watching over us

We have found the seventh sign
Down in the catacombs
When the seven points align
They will lead us all back home

19. Starchild

Touch me now and feel my force
I will give you life
History will change its course
Man will survive

Something's strange, I'm so confused, I don't know why
[Storyteller:] (secrets have not been told)

I've been designed to tell the truth, I cannot lie
[Storyteller:] (when will the truth unfold?)

I heard the news, a mystery, a strange device
[Storyteller:] (what does the future hold?)

I'm so afraid, I just can't see through all these lies
[Storyteller:] (behold this alien messenger)

is this a cosmic design?
[Storyteller:] (the bringer of a new day)

one by four by nine

Reach out to me and seal your fate
A new phase is near
Come to me and cross the gate
No pain, no fear

A strange signal, beamed out in space
From the face of the moon
Harbinger of a new race
We'll be evolving soon
I see the future, a new star will rise
I see the world through the all-seeing eyes
Of the Starchild
I have entered another dimension
My perception expands
Transcending beyond comprehension
Evolution of man?

Time has come, a brand new sun
Shining down on you
The reign of peace has now begun
Dreams have come true

I see the future, a new star will rise
I see the world through the all-seeing eyes
Of the Starchild

20. The Two Gates

And so it's come to this. Two Gates – two portals await. Let your choice be guided by collective
wisdom. Ah, hath the prospect of freedom ever tasted so good? One gate completes the circle;one
step away from your own dimension, your cherished time. One gate severs all connections: one step
away from the dreamworld of everlasting ebony. You call it Oblivion. It is a brave soul who makes
the first choice.

behold these gates, the first one plain and old
behold these gates, the second forged of gold
the gate of old spells out disgrace and shame
the one of gold cries out my noble name
I challenge death to meet me at this gate
I challenge Odin to pronounce my fate
and if I thrive I've overcome this land
but if I fail I'll die a worthy man

[roman] open the gate, we're now on our own
[all] enter the gate to your destiny
[roman] will it be fortune or fate, the truth shall be known
[all] enter the gate to your destiny

cowards whine beyond the olden gate
Valhalla shines beyond the golden gate
I walk alone so dare not follow me
but choose your own and die in agony

we have been saved, our journey has ended
but tell us why, why this ordeal?
what was your aim, or was it just some game
have we've been humbled, or did we prevail?
we've been enslaved, our wounds have not mended
and who are you, what magicians or gods?
what was your plan, we don't understand
did we pass, or did we fail?
