Avantasia, Michael Kiske, Biff Byford, Joe Lynn Turner - Savior in the Clockwork lyrics

I envision how you lie awake and agonize
Over ways to bear your day just every night
Re-alignment you're in need of so imploringly
It's the pace that we'll maintain for you

Oh every moment everybody's gonna think alike
Every second will be seized
While every in between we'll erase
To take the tangle from their memory
Maximizing one and all for you
Now into line bring them peace of mind
Mind by mind set the pace for all mankind
Let us take away the spaces
In between their given time

Time to run! Savior in the clockwork tell me
For how long will I wait on the grind?
Time flies on time will fly on
Savior in the clockwork take me back inside
In between the time

Now am I half asleep or half unconscious
Half 'adream'?
I can't move as I am stuck in bright lucidity
I can feel and hear and see
But, I won't comprehend
I see fire that I won't decipher

I see giant evil tower to the blackened sky
I feel blessed with evidence of
What I can't define
Swinging blade of the lowering perpendicular
I see clarity I won't remember do I dream?
Is it only fantasy and matter
Just a thought I see?
And time is all they need
To steal away eternity

Time to run! Savior in the clockwork tell me
For how long will I wait on the grind?
Time flies on (Time will fly on)
Savior in the clockwork take me back inside
In between the time

You pry into a world too far above
Your head up in the haze

Journey to the birth of the first sun
Into the black womb of space

Father primal space, oh yeah
Who's drawn the light

Standing at the door to epiphanic realization
A journey to the centre of forever
To the mystery of creation

Don't you hear the voice: I'm with you
I'm everywhere and real you can see me
You can hear me without credence
I'm what your hands can feel

God, I feel I've been away too long
I feel like I've been dreaming

If you'd open up your door to explanation
You would hear the voice of reason screaming

I've seen the ocean swallow
The ancient harmony

And I've seen belief and
Craving swallow sanity

I feel my hand is led
To ink between the lines

Tall stories legendizing: figments of the lie

At crack of dawn hazy remains above my mind

Raise your mind

I scribble down those icons
That I can't define
Will they demand account as I'd demand myself

Raise your mind

I'll never testify what no man comprehends

And they will tear to pieces
What they can't define

Raise your mind

If you don't follow your
Self- preservation drive

They'll crucify the one who won't affiliate

Raise your mind

But decorate the children of
Their own ego's way

Time to run savior in the clockwork

Tell me for how long will
I wait on the grind?

Time flies on time will fly on
Savior in the clockwork

Take me back inside in between the time
Time to run! Savior in the clockwork tell me
For how long will I wait on the grind?
Time flies on time will fly on
Savior in the clockwork take me back inside
In between the time
