Somewhere in the sea of dreams An island stands alone The empty walls and rooftops Are the signs of life now gone And the waves keep pulsing endlessly On to its gentle shore Calling out to all the drifting minds In rhythm to explore It draws them here
Awake from the mist That clouds through my conscious mind And I can see Alone on the shore A road leads to nowhere Down to the sea
Far up in the sky The shadows of flying machines They circle round Observing the earth Their eyes always watching The lifeless ground
And up on the hill I see The spire of the library The centre of all the island's world And with my eyes fixed on the entrance I find myself drawn to the distance Feeling underneath my feet The heartbeat of this universe
I run - up to the library The centre of this world Away - and up from the endless sea To reach for some way out
And inside the walls Abandoned and desolate A sense of pain A wood panelled room And scattered around my feet Are burned remains
But up on the altar A book starts to form from blackened shards A rough empty cover with no words And taking a page charred by fire I reach out and put it in place there Feeling right behind my head A shift in dream's reality
Find your fantasy Decide your destiny And then the secrets of an island Will be yours to find It's your only way To reach reality Will you assemble all the pages And escape from time And this dream
Turn towards the entrance again Step outside and see the destruction All the flying machines are torn from the air And burn towards the ground I see disaster coming A blaze approaching from the sky And as the first one crashes down Then it's all that I can think of just to run
Fire and metal rain from the sky As I run they join the inferno Their bodies spin like paper through air And tear their wings apart And as the island burns in fire Trapping me in flames, I realize Now I know the only way There's one place left to go
I run - back to the library To reform time again Return - to alter my destiny And take another chance To find the pages of universe Inside subconscious mind The world - spiralling down into Another branch of time
Now the door opens up Into the centre of a storm Tornadoes sweep the sea And the land is scarred and torn Stepping back from the raging wind I shut myself inside Look again to the half-formed book And search another time
To find each page in the library A scene from a dream Describing a nightmare through its words The fragments of fears From all the dreamers' minds Evoking thoughts, lives and images Throughout time
Find your fantasy Decide your destiny And then the secrets of an island Will be yours to find It's your only way To reach reality Will you assemble all the pages And escape from time And this dream will keep you here And turn through every page Until you find the way to awake Open up your eyes
Another page, another landscape forms outside A desert of dust and sand that stretches far and wide I leave the shelter of the door and move away Start walking across the world to find another way
Wherever I walked on this plain The spire would appear once again Silent the world reformed And sent me back towards the library
This time new figures appear Their spirits emerge from the air Frozen in time and showing me The memories left by minds of dreamers here
I see the figures trying each and every page They step outside, return and try again The book now is closed, full and complete Each fate refused, forever they'll stay inside the dream They touch the book again, they pick it up And find it's fused to their hands
Fading out, absorbed into time And with one scream they disappear Steel my mind, this fate won't be mine I'll find the way out of here
Stepping out for the last time The horizon dark again There's nothing here but the waves of the sea In this path of existence The island never formed But the library still stands eternal Stoic and silent, the book now complete Closed upon the altar And I hear it calling for me
Joining all of the dreamers I could leave the world behind Resign to fate, disappear and be gone Do I dare take a last chance There's another way I see But in a dream, what will come when we die
With nothing left that's here for me I throw myself into the sea I feel a sudden piercing cold The water closes over me Familiar light envelops me And suddenly I'm flying free I soar up to the endless sky And open up my eyes again
Accept your life, and walk the path That you have chosen for yourself You can't repeat one chance Over and over Keep moving on, make your mistakes And learn from each and every one Then you'll return from them Stronger than ever
Maybe someday I'll be there again And the way out may not be the same Not in the dreamscape, but this real world And this time I'll find my way
If you're there If other dreamers lose their way If you hear The island calling you some day Then you'll know Then the library will still be there, you'll see The secrets of an island revealedTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
