Ayreon - Universal migrator pt II
a) The Eye of the Universe a dark sphere surrounds us surreal...oblivious... in the centre of the galaxy a hidden force has found us powerful...mysterious... at the boundary of eternity nothing escapes, not even light beyond the mystical horizon we surrender to its might gazing into the eye of the universe a deep roar is sounding deafening...thunderous... as if the universe were crying my heart is pounding frantic...delirious... my every nerve is dying b) Halo of Darkness 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 or is there no way back from the halo of darkness? spirits - apparitions - misery - suffering horrid dreams and dire visions rising up from the black 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 now silence devours us massive...suffocating... the calm before the storm gravity overpowers us invincible...dominating... and leads us through the final door feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness feel my might, I'm the eye of the universe "As we continue on our journey, we dive into a black hole - a spiraling wormhole. As it sucks us in, time slows and images become distorted. Reality itself twists and bends. We leave the galaxy where our journey began, headed for the unknown. Where will it take us?"

[Vocalist: Ian Gillan] We all came down to Montreaux On the lake Geneva shore line To make records with the mobile We didn't have much time Frank Zappa and the Mothers We had the best place around But some stupid with a flare-gun bruned the place to the ground CHORUS: Smoke on the water A fire in the sky Smoke on the water [Vocalist: Bruce Dickinson] They burned down the gambling house it died with an awful sound The funky claude was running in and out pulling kids out on the ground When it all was over We had to find another place The Swiss time was running out It seemed that we would lose the race REPEAT CHORUS SOLO [Vocalist: Paul Rodgers] We ended up at the Grand Hotel It was empty cold and bare but with the rolling truck stones thing just outside making our music there With a few red lights, a few old beds We made a place to sweat No matter what we get out of this, I know I know I'll never forget REPEAT CHORUS

SOLO I'd watch the open line, I'd swing the sun up in the sky I threw down the screens and opened up the door The sun came streaming in and it shone out through your eyes But you laughed and threw your gospel on the floor CHORUS: Hey, spirit of joy Oh, you make this fool feel so wise Hey, spirit of joy Feels so good you came into my life The ?? is where your mouth is and I'll tell the truth today I see you're the one that I've been waiting for You've not been down this way already, so now my time has come And now you see just what I'm looking for REPEAT CHORUS Hey, spirit of joy Feels so good you came into my life Hey, spirit of joy Feel the daylight break into a day Hey, spirit of joy Hey, spirit of joy

The breeding house stood at 731, he was just a working man And he worked with his hands and prisoners He set a judgement on his fellow man Secret sight was his game, justified by war His spawn lay in the freezer The killers that wore his name CHORUS: The breeding house, you were there And the sins of your fathers, In the breeding house The breeding house, 731 And the sins of your fathers are the sins of your sons Maybe within childhood he pulled off spiders legs Now he's a big boy playing with big boys toys He's playing games won't forget A contract for some research, a paycheque in the mail A secret that defended by the ones that should have ended it STICK: Angels of death in a white coat [sorcery] There's thousand ways of dying, so obscene, so obscene And Washington was blaffened about knickers and G-strings And men were busy hiding evil things, evil things REPEAT CHORUS SOLO Come to see the carnival, come to witness fear Come to see deformity, human life is here A double-blind experiment on who's the last to die A fifty year conspiracy of murders and of lies REPEAT STICK REPEAT CHORUS

Tattooed millionaire, 12", Single
When you think that it's all over and you want your ragged mile And the winds of change are blowing all around, all around Stop and look, you're not the only one on the road out in the night Take some time to find your brother, it does take time to get it right CHORUS: Winds of change blow over us (x3) Winds of change don't change us at all In a world of desperation women struggle to be free Their last truth and inspiration to break the chains of you and me Look around and have your visions of what is and what could be Letting loose imagination, make your own reality REPEAT CHORUS We all stand together, all of us as one You hold on to somebody as the road whines on and on You fierce into the rising sun, even a blind man knows the way You're children of a new age, you can blaze your own way REPEAT CHORUS
