Avantasia - The Wicked Symphony lyrics

rate me

You'll be running out of miracles

Like I'm running out of dreams

Madness lurking on my left

Angels faint in front of me

And I see eyes in the night

I hear a promise resound

Gold and diamonds, love and fame

And music meant to remain

You've been dying for glory

You've been looking for love

Why don't we read the signs

When we're about to get lost

A seeker enthralled by a flame

Eventually home to his pain

The Great Unbeloved

You reach fot the final stage

CHORUS

Hey man in your hideaway

Where do we go from here

Heroes in a tragedy

Down-home just a memory

Where do we go

When the world gets in the way

Way down to the hideaway

Afflatus Divine! Your hands

And a wicked symphony

Now to the hideaway

Lock up the rain for a wicked symphony

Don't you give up your emotions

Don't you abandon your despair

If you deny what you desire

This will have been just a mystery play

There'll be nowhere to go

Just oblivion, we're so close to reach out

Close to fall, make up or break up or crawl

You are striving for beauty

For a song to remain

A final touch and the spirit you have cited

Hold on to the reins

I feel how I'm losing my ground

A dancer enthralled by a sound

The smoke clears away

I'll reach for the final stage

CHORUS

Hey man in your hideaway

Where do we go from here

Heroes in a tragedy

Down-home just a memory

Where do we go

When the world gets in the way

Way down to the hideaway, afflatus Divine!

Your hands and a wicked symphony

Now to the hideaway

Lock up the rain for a wicked symphony

[Solo: Sasha Paeth]

Oh, I can hear it, I can hear it

Oh, I can hear it, I, I, I, I...

I can hear it, yeah

I'm dying for a sign

You can turn your face away

Can pretend you don't hear it

How long have you been begging on your knees

And now that you're near it

Won't you be damned if you defy what you're given

Mercury of salvation

Where do we go

When the world gets in the way

CHORUS

Hey man in your hideaway

Where do we go from here

Heroes in a tragedy

Down-home just a memory

Where do we go

When the world gets in the way

Way down to the hideaway

Afflatus Divine!

Your hands and wicked symphony

Now to the hideaway

Lock up the rain for a wicked symphony
