Act I: The Dawning (Part II)
I. Eyes of Time
"It slowly dawns on Ayreon that these visions,
he is experiencing, are visions of the future.
But he does not fully comprehend their importance yet."
Ayreon:
I cannot see with these eyes!
My world is dark,
like a cold eternal night.
I could not tell you no lies!
My words are lost,
in a shroud of mystery.
Villagers:
Tell me what you see!
Ayreon:
I cannot tell you now!
I see the world,
through the eyes of time.
Villagers:
Tell me what you feel!
Ayreon:
I wouldn't know how!
I cannot free my mind,
from the eyes of time.
I do not know where I am!
I'm lost in time,
drifting in eternity.
I cannot tell,
if it's real or fantasy,
or a view of things to come.
Villagers:
Tell me what you see!
Ayreon:
I cannot tell you now!
I see the world,
through the eyes of time.
Villagers:
Tell me what you feel!
Ayreon:
I wouldn't know how!
I cannot free my mind,
from the eyes of time.
I'm still trying to understand,
why do I see the things I see.
Could it be a future world,
that's warning us through me?
I'm still trying to understand,
why do I know the things I know.
Does it mean I'm a God,
will nobody tell me so?
Villagers:
Tell me what you see!
Ayreon:
I cannot tell you now!
I see the world,
through the eyes of time.
Villagers:
Tell me what you feel!
Ayreon:
I wouldn't know how!
I cannot free my mind.
Villagers:
Tell me what you see!
Ayreon:
I see the world,
through the eyes of time.
Villagers:
Tell me what you feel!
Ayreon:
I wouldn't know how,
I cannot free my mind!
II. Brainwaves
(Instrumental)
"It all gets too confusing for Ayreon,
and the thin line between illusion and reality fades."
