The Mystery of Time: A Rock Epic
Through the shimmer on this cold alley paving See the moonshine painting the ground Cobble stones keeping tales that remain untold More than ages old Brewing mist like a shroud on the damp floor Hear it whisper lucidity away Ornate cold is the king of these streets tonight The void is taking hold Make haste as the wind's getting colder It's chasing the dreamer away Wide open minds will divine without reason Cold is the night as you're braving the gale Wide open eyes A spectre is breezing through the moonlit sky See them guises on the prowl, what a show! Feel them shadows drag you into a nightmare To the melody of which you don't know If it's really there Dance in the gloom, dance in the gloom Every move is a step to your tomb We're the machine that's gonna make you dream Phantasmagoria Time flies from the space of an hour Telling tales in the poorhouse they say… Wide open minds will divine without reason Cold is the night as you're braving the gale Wide open eyes A spectre is breezing through the moonlit sky Wide open minds will divine without reason Cold is the night as you're braving the gale Wide open eyes and a spectre is breezing Cold is the night as you're braving the pale Wide open minds - once upon a moonlit night…

Welcome to the aftermath of the incidence That made the tower fall Another screw to another wheel For another mind won't stray anymore Oh won't stray away from its brain Oh no… We must finalise the giant To level off the void and zeroise the will The time will come: you will know what you need The Watchmakers' Dream The Watchmakers' Dream Simplify simplicity You don't mind what you don't see at all The tongue of nations brought the line Reason occupied: the God-machine oh A splendid steaming dream will tower to the sky We'll exploit another 'morrow We drained another day The glowing of the future in our eyes And time will reveal what we need: The Watchmakers' Dream The Watchmakers' Dream We must finalise the giant To zeroise the will and level off all minds The time will come that you Will know what you need The Watchmakers' Dream The Watchmakers' Dream The Watchmakers' Dream - Will we slice infinity The Watchmakers' Dream - For all the world to see The Watchmakers' Dream - We give you what you need The Watchmakers' Dream - The sound of triviality

I never wanted guidance To tell me where to find A light in the darkness Cause the dark I'd push aside No time for dreaming of a distant Paradise No time for tales of good and evil Another correlation: as above so below Another analysing where illusions fail to show The face of the maker who'd leave you alone Without a sense of comprehension When that meadow - in front of my eyes - will have dried away Will my senses wither like flowers on my grave Will this wave of becoming flow into the void of time The final hour: When Never and Now become one Will I find the orchid The final hour: Door to the garth of eternity? Or withered orchid meadows? Everybody's praying But what if God is just a threat And everybody's straying? If only they would just forget Everybody's craving For a ghost light in the haze: You'll lose your minds one after another Everybody's craving For what doesn't have a name or a face So reason could fit it in the frame In quest of the orchid: A glimmer in the daze Till I awake to the sound of rigour What if that meadow in your mind is just a fantasy? And if it wanted to be seen why must you believe? Will this wave of becoming flow into the void of time The final hour When Never and Now become one Will I find the orchid The final hour Door to the garth of eternity Or withered orchid meadows Black orchid Strange and beautiful Oh black orchid I must find you I remember that morning He had to be told What he couldn't remember After he'd spoken to the wall And I gave to repression What I must not have seen What even believers Must unlearn to unbelieve The final hour When Never and Now become one Will I find the orchid The final hour Door to the garth of eternity Or withered orchids The final hour When Never and Now become one Will I find the orchid? The final hour: door to the garth of eternity Or withered orchid meadows? Oh...

You're caught in the land of no sun Without reason or rhyme You're avid for splendour The spin of the hand is your pace on the run We got no time to turn When we strive after grandeur Here you got your hero slicing up your ecstasy On the verge of lunacy There's no time to lose No chance to refuse - ah Will you deny what you see (as you) tear down the nature of reason That has shown you the way Where clock hands freeze I know what I see And I know what I don't Through your dark swamp I walk on deductive conclusion A little more time? I admit I would take But then again It would mean more time for confusion You think you got your prodigy Every time your eyes don't see Victim of perplexity There's no time to lose No need to refuse Will you deny what you see Tear down our nature of reason That has shown you the way Where clock hands freeze Will you deny what you see Tear down our nature of reason That has shown you the way Where clock hands freeze

Home to the land of the living Roused by a sound I confide And what I am to cast my tired eyes upon Where was I when the clock had been alive? I see a marvel right in front of me There's a man, who's got tomorrow in his hands Don't you see what you are meant to be Outside your cloud-cuckoo-land Time won't wait for those who stay behind (Time to wait for Time) In these tangible realms hesitation's a crime In the night: A secret mysterious dream Dead of night, While the town lies asleep We invoke the machine Those dreams that you hummed to yourself once How far will you reach out to make them come true? Will you turn around to shirk from duty? Or force the pace while it's all up to you? A giant leap is to be made now I'm struck with awe We're gonna heed the inner call My heart beat quickens I behold the god-machine I can't help but write history As my glance wanders to the far off end in the sky (Time to wait for Time) Hissing and screaming, almost alive In the night My life came apart at the seams Dead of night, Let's run up the wheel We invoke the machine In the night: A secret mysterious dream Dead of night, The town lies asleep, woah In the night: Those in hiding are waiting for me Dead of night, Let's run up the wheel We invoke the machine

I think of the days I was thrilled by this road ahead When the moment won over what was to come Not afraid of the distance but the distance afraid of me Every time I made it there I found nothing The distance was gone Now, I don't wanna fade But I ain't gonna run I'm resting my head on these stones God, what have you done to you and me? I'm tired of scaring the future away No road ahead, the fire is dead Father don't you see? In front of you is what the chase has left of me If only they told me What the kerbside was hiding away Where the angels from high street didn't want to go And a heartbeat is forced To resign to the glory of a commonplace I am jaded I don't wanna see what's becoming of me Here's a bit! Then spare me this sight now… Cut it out I'm tired of the future myself I don't wanna fade but I ain't gonna run I'm resting my head on these stones God, what have you done to you and me? I'm tired of scaring the future away No road ahead, the fire is dead Father don't you see? In front of you is what's left of me God and glory torn to pieces, No no, it's just the spirit of the times I'm drawn to a flame that won't release me Release me! And I see a thousand who wait in line I don't wanna face what I ain't gonna stand I'm resting my head on these stones God, what have you done? Look at yourself! I'm tired of scaring the future away The dark road ahead, the fire is dead Father don't you see... oh yeah, what you have made of me?

Oh... The dial by the night Seems like what it used to be But now that this town has fallen silent I feel memories Of good intentions ghosting me Watch the tower clock hand Cut instants off each hour From a future that has been devoured Already by their craving for the vague And even after lucid heartbeats Few and far between We're back to gain admission to the wheel Bending the boundaries Deaf to the memories We won't make in the rush anyway And God if you're out there Why do you make me spin your wheel? Do you hear me? Dweller I a dream You're lost in the no-zone A twilight mover Primal screams Are crying for the dweller in a dream The study and a sage And ancient brazen luminaire Just a bat flap from answers they wanna hear They're evident To every cynic eminent Movement around the sun All in eternal time The heaven's fires turned to light The moon that governs birth and then decay The principle decreed By laws you think you will conceive And then some accident To throw it all in place!? Bending the boundaries Don't run from your memories I have been there before Are you for real now Or just a dweller in my dream? Do you hear me Dweller in a dream You're lost in the no-zone A twilight mover Primal screams Are crying for the dweller in a dream, yeah Oh, why would your God give road lead to ruin? Why would science challenge facts? Why would your God given will come off the track? Come of the track? Dweller in a dream? Oh... Father do you hear me? Dweller in a dream You're lost in the no-zone A twilight mover Primal screams Are crying for the Dweller in a dream Do you hear me? Dweller in a dream

How could I let it get this far? To the edge I've been drawn by promises And what's the reason For a heart to only misguide me Blind me, tear myself apart? When darkness falls and silence talks At the edge of thoughts that you memorized I'm the truth between the lines They read and deny me and tie me to fantasy And they'll curse this darkest hour When in oblivion I'll die Oh will you make me turn the page, one after another If only you would make a mark the eye can see You're dancing in around Through the dark you long to find Alight at the midnight sky To persuade the night Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: You break me just to make me feel like a golden child What if it's nothing but a dream? The great mystery, great mystery We carry the flame to accelerate The evolution of an age Cast your eyes into the crystal ball - alright We embrittle the weak that isn't meant to be We're gonna make it coronate the chosen ones Who never sinned against their vocation Don't be afraid: just look around Don't question what your eyes can see Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: I've borne from my devotion Oh she won't see me, she won't feel me She's lost on her won, and so am I? I see a cold moon rise above those empty streets And I see movements part their lives I hear the ticking leaving scars you can't conceal Ain't it poignant how you try? Impatiently they're giving up on hearts Whose signs they cannot read As silence doesn't talk, eternity will cease And as you marvel at the artwork in your hands Rich in detail, so frail and beautiful And you forget the rules The elder's always made up for you To save you precious time You watch them pile up, they are saving on and on Even you don't know where they store it all You've got to be a fool if you don't save along A thousand screaming And silence doesn't speak to thousands screaming No, silence doesn't wanna speak… And I see tears shed over days when all was good A child didn't care for what never really mattered I see tears shed over days When all was good and time They had a lot to give away When their hearts had eyes to see And the final mystery Was more than a fancy tale And answers you did find To dare what you would find inside, no Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: You break me just to make me feel like a golden child Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: You break me just to make me feel like a golden child (Don't leave me blind, send a sign) Oh is it really not a dream? The great mystery (Oh...)

Screaming-in silence you must carry your secrets down this lonely eerie wicked road Screaming-you´re oh so battle weary They say it´s lonely at the top Let alone when you hit the ground All ablaze, you´re rushing down the tightrope With your only mean companion tisking away You gotta stand your ground Forge into a fiery fierce tomorrow Stand your ground At the speed of light into the void Hell is what you´ve gotta make it through Until it´s just the cross and you The cross and you The cross and you.... Screaming from behind the mask of reason The cautionary voice that shatters your brain The silvery gleam of tomorrow Keep accelerating in quest for a break Until you realize that it´s too late All ablaze, you´re rushing down the tightrope With your only mean companion tisking away You gotta stand your ground Forge into a fiery fierce tomorrow Stand your ground At the speed of light into the void Hell is what you´ve gotta make it through Until it´s just the cross and you All ablaze I plough my way Till I am allowed to fall I pay my dues on a ship of fools I kick and scream and fight and crawl Get a life! Don´t waste time! As we drown the voice inside Till the moment I awake When it´s just the cross and me You gotta stand your ground Forge into a fiery fierce tomorrow Stand your ground At the speed of light into the void You gotta stand your ground Forge into a fiery fierce tomorrow Stand your ground At the speed of light into the void Hell´s the shortcut you´re rushing through Just the cross and you

A game Welcome to the attic Hospitality is my name Eyes so alive I've been feeling pretty dead For quite a while Gimme a smile Dead-and-alive Come a little closer You and I: Affiliates forevermore and I'm alive Death is just a feeling You and I swapping finitude And love for diamonds I'm just a little pale Don't hesitate to sign right here Don't be afraid to come with me Specialized in temporizing Dead to faulty love and time Faulty time We'll be dancing right here Forever and a while Day by day Dead-and-alive Come a little closer You and I: Affiliates forevermore and I'm alive Death is just a feeling You and I swapping finitude And love for diamonds Value by value I'm gonna turn into breath after breath Love we trade in for silver Defy what they use to call death And dust covered treasures will shine again An unseen accolade Larger than life, a memory Death will be just a charade Dead-and-alive Come a little closer You and I: Affiliates forevermore and I'm alive Death is just a feeling You and I swapping finitude And love for diamonds

When darkness falls and silence talks At the edge of thoughts you memorised I'm the truth between the lines They read and deny me, tie me to fantasy And they'll curse this darkest hour When in oblivion I'll die Oh, will you make me turn the page, one after another If only you would make a mark the eye can see You're dancing in around Through the dark you long to find Alight at the midnight sky To persuade the night Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: You break me just to make me feel like a golden child What if it's nothing but a dream The great mystery, great mystery Carry the flame to accelerate The evolution of an age Cast your eyes into the crystal ball - alright We embrittle the weak that isn't meant to be We're gonna make it coronate The chosen ones who never sinned against their vocation Don't be afraid: just look around Don't question what your eyes can see Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: I've borne from my devotion Oh, she won't see me, she won't feel me She's lost on her own, and so am I I see a cold moon rise above those empty streets And I see movements part their lives I hear the ticking leaving scars you can't conceal Ain't it poignant how you try Impatiently they're giving up on hearts Whose signs they cannot read As silence doesn't talk, eternity will cease And as you marvel at the artwork in your hands Rich in detail, so frail and beautiful And you forget the rules The elders always made up for you To save you precious time You watch them pile up, they are saving on and on Even you don't know where they store it all You've got to be a fool if you don't save along The thousands screaming And silence doesn't speak to thousands screaming No, silence doesn't wanna speak… And I see tears shed over days when all was good A child didn't care for what never really mattered I see tears shed over days When all was good and time They had a lot to give away When their hearts had eyes to see And the final mystery Was more than a fancy tale And answers you did find To dare what you would find inside, no Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: You break me just to make me feel like a golden child Don't leave me blind, give me one sign Grant me just one look into the mystery behind Fire and flames, heartache and pain: You break me just to make me feel like a golden child Oh, is it really not a dream? The great mystery
