Ayreon
Into the Black Hole (alternative version)
[A: The Eye of the Universe]
[Damian:]
A dark sphere surrounds us
(Surreal, oblivious)
In the center of the galaxy
A hidden force has found us
(Powerful, mysterious)
At the boundary of eternity
[Lana:]
Nothing escapes, not even light
[Damian & Lana:]
Beyond the mystical horizon
[Lana:]
We surrender to its might
[Damian & Lana:]
Gazing into the eye of the universe
[Damian:]
A deep roar is sounding
(Deafening, thunderous)
As if the universe was crying
My heart is pounding
(Frantic, delirious)
My every nerve is dying
[Lana:]
Nothing escapes, not even light
[Damian & Lana:]
Beyond the mystical horizon
[Lana:]
We surrender to its might
[Damian & Lana:]
Gazing into the eye of the universe
[B: Halo of Darkness]
[Damian:]
I hear screams of fallen souls, sad cries of agony
Within the void of this evil hole, deep inside the black
Could it be my imagination, the mirror of my fantasy?
A fear-induced hallucination
Is there no way back from the halo of darkness?
Spirits and apparitions, misery and suffering
Horrid dreams and dire visions rising up from the black
I look away in disbelief, this cannot be happening!
The end has come, I bow in grief
There is no way back from the halo of darkness!
[C: The Final Door]
[Damian:]
Now silence devours us
(Massive, suffocating)
The calm before the storm
Gravity overpowers us
(Invincible, dominating)
And leads us through the final door
[Lana:]
Nothing escapes, not even light
[Damian & Lana:]
Beyond the mystical horizon
[Lana:]
We surrender to its might
[Damian & Lana:]
Gazing into the eye of the universe
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feel my might, I'm the eye of the universe
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feel my might, I'm the eye of the universe
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
