Generate meaning
1
[A. A new dawn]
2
A PERCEPTABLE TENSION IS HOVERING ABOVE AYREON'S HOMETOWN.
3
SOMETHING IS AT HAND.
4
[B. The gathering]
5
THE TOWNSPEOPLE GATHER ON THE MARKET SQUARE TO JUDGE OF AYREON.
6
IS HE A PROPHET OR A CHARLATAN, OR EVEN WORSE: AN APPARITION MOST UNHOLY?
7
[C. The accusation]
8
THE VILLAGERS ACCUSE AYREON OF BEING THE DEVIL'S SPAWN,
9
BUT AYREON PERSISTS IN HIS INNOCENCE.
10
[VILLAGERS:]
11
have you seen his eyes
12
up in the skies
13
like hypnotized
14
and he never smiles
15
he never cries
16
have you heard his song
17
fierce and strong
18
right or wrong
19
should he be condemned
20
for he doesn't belong
21
[AYREON:]
22
what have I done
23
[VILLAGERS:]
24
you've aroused the forces of destruction
25
[AYREON:]
26
what have I done
27
[VILLAGERS:]
28
you've unleashed the rage of the gods
29
[AYREON:]
30
what have I done
31
[VILLAGERS:]
32
you've denounced the wonder of creation
33
[AYREON:]
34
what have I done
35
[VILLAGERS:]
36
you've betrayed your own,
37
now you have to pay
38
it has been foretold
39
in days of old
40
' evil soul
41
will corrupt the world
42
to achieve his goal
43
he's the devil's seed
44
an evil breed
45
he's gonna make you bleed
46
he'll take all he needs
47
with uncontrolable greed
48
[AYREON:]
49
I've done nothing at all,
50
no nothing at all
51
[D. The banishment]
52
WITH STICKS AND TORCHES IN HAND,
53
THE ANGRY VILLAGERS DRIVE AYREON OUT OF THEIR DEMESNE.
54
[E. Oblivion]
55
COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED AYREON ROAMS THROUGH THE FOREST,
56
ONLY AN INDISTINCT SENSE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT SUSTAINS HIM.
57
[AYREON:]
58
if I have died, then this must be hell
59
if I'm alive, I cannot break this gruesome spell
60
I am seeking relief and finding none
61
I have fallen into oblivion
62
a force within dominates my tormented soul
63
and empowers me to regain absolute control
64
I shall not yield, for I am the chosen one
65
who shall rise from oblivion
66
GOOD FATE HAS GUIDED AYREON TO CAMELOT, KING ARTHUR'S CASTLE,
67
WHERE HE IS WELCOMED AS A WORTHY MINSTREL.
