[Ayreon - Time Beyond Time lyrics]
FUTUREMAN: From the cities on the seas
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 cyber world
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 wait's
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
KNIGHT: I don't understand your words!
FUTUREMAN: (I'm a sophisticated man)
KNIGHT: They strike as hard as steel
I'm sworn to the sacred quest
FUTUREMAN: (And you would say I'd understand)
KNIGHT: On the isle of Avalon
ROMAN: Just look around you now
And tell me what you see
KNIGHT: (To retrieve the magic chalice)
FUTUREMAN: (Is it a virtual design?)
ROMAN: A world full of treachery
KNIGHT: (Which holds the power to heal)
ROMAN: Far away on the edge of the world in a
KNIGHT: Only the pure of heart
Are received into the realm
FUTUREMAN: Are we launched into a
Roman and futureman:
Time beyond time, space beyond space
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 cyber world
