The Charm Of The Seer

Act IV: Merlin's Will & Ayreon's Fate (Part II)

"Ayreon understands that he was not,

individually chosen for the "Time Telepathy Experiment",

but that he unintentionally received its transmissions.

This could be because of a more developed sixth sense,

as a result of his blindness.

He also realizes that he can neither accomplish his mission,

nor stop the visions from penetrating his mind.

His sole escape is to submit to,

the magic charm of the great seer, Merlin."

Ayreon:

I've been lost,

in the valley of nightmares.

I've been found,

in the garden of dreams.

Speak thy charm,

I know you are out there.

cast thy spell,

and silence the screams.

But as I poise on the edge of life,

where time disappears.

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer.

I've seen fear,

in valiant faces.

I've seen hope,

in desperate eyes.

Lead me home,

to familiar places.

Lead me back,

to crystalline skies.

But as I poise on the edge of life,

where time disappears.

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer.

I have failed,

I have been forsaken.

I've been scorned,

and misunderstood.

I have lost,

my life has been taken.

I'd surrender,

if only I could.

But as I poise on the edge of life,

where time disappears.

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer.

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...

I bow in fear,

to the charm of the seer...
