[Ayreon, Joost van den Broek - Fatum Horrificum: 1884 lyrics]

The year is 1884
These are dark, troubled times
Fraught with greed, envy, and prejudice
It’s two world’s divided:
Rich and poor, black and white
Master and servant, the living and
(uoh) well, the not quite dead
Oh, yes, that’s right:  the spirit world
Plays a large part in this story that
You are about to hear

Allow me to present abby and Daniel
A happy couple obviously
Head-over heels and completely smitten
With each other (huh)
Aren’t they adorable?
They could not know, of course
That their love was doomed
Even as it started
And that fate was about to deal them
The cruelest hand imaginable


I feel I should warn you
This tale is not for the faint of heart
Things go dreadfully wrong for
Our young lovers the terrible
Horrific sequence of events that’s
About to unfold here will surely be too much
For the tender hearted

There – ha! my duty to you is fulfilled
And you may now proceed but at your own risk

Aaa aaa aa aaa aaa
A a aaa aaa a a aa aa aaa aaoo

Aaa aaa aa aaa aaa
A a aaa aaa aa aa aa aa aa a

Aa aa aaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaa
