Ayreon - Time Beyond Time lyrics

rate me

[futureman]

from the cities underseas

to the skyways in the east

from the stations on the moon

to the planet of neptune

I'm a sophisticated man

and you would say I'd understand

is it a virtual design?

are we launched into a time beyond time

space beyond space

we are lost here in this cyberworld

is there no way out?

[knight]

I don't understand your words

they strike as hard as steel

I'm sworn to the sacred quest on the isle of Avalon

to retrieve the magic chalice

which holds the power to heal

only the pure of heart are received into the realm

[roman]

just look around you now and tell me what you see

a world full of treachery

skies of silver and seas of gold

the past is young and the future old

we're closed in by iron gates

beyond them Elysium waits

far away on the edge of the world in a time beyond time

space beyond space

we are lost here in the underworld

is there no way out?

[futureman]

from the birthcry of our race

to the mysteries of space

I'm an educated man

and you would say I'd understand

[repeat all]
