Edguy - Wake Up The King lyrics

rate me

[music & lyrics: Tobias Sammet]

Soldier of sunlight

Welcome to the kingdom of ignorance

Where all the tears of ages tell their tales

No one dares to break the spell

No one dares to fly

Time is running out you can't deny

How many times

Have you found yourself under the influence?

How many times has a mirror made you cry?

Now it's time to stand upright

Tear down your inner door

The birth of yourself can't wait no more

In your mind there's a battle raging on

Try to find what you're fighting for

Wake up the king

From his sleep in your fantasy

Wake up the king

Let him be all you ecstasy

Tears flow to rivers

And rivers to oceans of broken dreams

Have you ever heard of tears of joy?

Show yourself a sense of life

Open up your eyes

Let your heartbeat be your best advice

In your eyes I can see the fire burn

Realize, now it is your turn

Wake up the king

From his sleep in your fantasy

Wake up the king

Let him be all you ecstasy

Look at the mountain, look at the sun

Feel all the pure energy

Birds fly and whisper, call out your name

They belong to you and you're the

King of a kingdom, light in your hand

Look at what you have never seen

Walk on a rainbow, look to the stars

Cry it out and make your dream come true

Wake up the king

From his sleep in your fantasy

Wake up the king

Let him be all you ecstasy

Wake up the king

From his sleep in your fantasy

Wake up the king

Let him be all you ecstasy

Can't you see the crown?

(...and the vision continued: "There is less sense in complaining than looking

for your skills...")
