KAMELOT

Center of the Universe


Move slowly
Beyond the colors of my eyes
Move slowly
Into the corners of my mind
Rising like the Pegasus
Each and every one of us released
Islands in the sea of dreams
Always searching harmony and peace
All we find
Reject our mind
Don't you wonder why?
If the war by heaven's gate released desire
In the line of fire someone must have known
That a human heart demands to be admired
'Cause in the center of the universe
We are all alone

Show me sign of paradise
A place we all would like to go to
Tell me what to sacrifice
So there's a chance for me to want you
All I find
Reject my mind
And I wonder why
If the war by heaven's gate released desire
In the line of fire someone must have known
That a human heart demands to be admired
'Cause in the center of the universe
We are all alone

I have a tale to be told, won't you listen tonight?
Follow me into the core of the fountain of light
Try to imagine that hope is a ship for the soul
(Over the ocean the quest of your life lies ahead)
Maybe together we'll find there's a place for us all
(Follow the star in your mind, sail along sail along)

If the war by heaven's gate released desire
In the line of fire someone must have known
That a human heart demands to be admired
'Cause in the center of the universe
We are all alone
'Cause in the center of the universe
We are all alone
We're alone
We're alone

This song is very long, in fairness there are 2 concept albums and 7 singers in the whole saga.
To make this band justice, you have to listen the whole story. Several guitar players and other musicians.
Epic songs, the whole album is out of this world with musicians from Stratovarious, Edguy, Angra, etc.

Composer Tobias Sammet.

Truly a masterpiece!!



AVANTASIA

THE SEVEN ANGELS


Fire falling
from the sky
Rage of god is coming down
Armaggeddon's drawing nigh
Sinner cry ! Heathen die !
Hear the toll of pain, gloria, gloria

In the fiery rain
Fire falling from the sky
Rage of god is coming down
Armaggeddon's drawing nigh
Sinner cry ! Heathen die !
Hear the toll of pain, gloria, gloria

Now the time has come, the end's begun
And the only one will come
It has been foretold
By the visions of the old
And the madness in their eyes
Said his angel will arise

That's what they know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god
We have done no wrong
So we go where we belong
To the neverending dream
But for those who lived in sin"

They claim to know : "Holy Lord it's over, oh god"

Hey Angel, can you tell me
Will you lead us to the place
Full of heat, in the fire
For we only brought disgrace
He is not the one. If they only knew

Hey Angel, will you take us
To the judgement of his rage
Hey will we die
For we couldn't close the gate
To the knowledge as they have been told

I don't know how could I prove
Nothing but the cloven hoof
Reigning over them as well
While they keep on fighting hell
Babylon the scarlet whore has come


We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castigation
Fire will burn us away

We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castigation
Fire will burn us away

Redeemer, devastation
Hope it only has been ment
For the sin of the dreamer
who broke the low you'd sent
He is not the one. If they only knew

Hey, don't know but i wondered:
When we lost the seal again
Maybe stoned by the incense
Do we rise or just descent

He is not the one. If they only knew

I don't know how could I prove
Nothing but the cloven hoof
Reigning over them as well
While they keep on fighting hell
Babylon the scarlet whore has come


We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castigation
Fire will burn us away

We are the seven, judgement of heaven
Why don't we know : We are the angels
It's revelation, soul castigation
Fire will burn us away

Woe to you longing for the wisdom
Woe to you longing for the light
All my sons bring me back what is mine
Or you'll end burning in this night
Woe to you longing for the wisdom
Woe to you longing for the light
All my sons bring me back what is mine
Or you'll end burning in this night

Once I have been lost in what they told me to believe
Until I felt in burning deep inside to set my spirit free
And I escaped to another world to help the little men
Who make me plunge into philosophy - to feel my
Mind again... No one left to hold me tight - on the
'real' other side - but her in chains

I had been alone till the madman come along
With the knowledge and silver long beard
He was the first man ever teaching how I could be free
Helping me to find - oh - the mind and the soul
They've been trying to hide away...

And he promised we'd help Anna if I'd help him to
Go all the way
Go all the way into the world of minds
Open the gate and do not close behind
Prevent them from hiding the light away
Prevent them from tellin' us tales
Or the end of all they scare us with will be a
Million empty brains...

I could bring you what you told me
The seal they need to close the gate forever
But still I haven't found a meaning
Anna will we ever be together?

You've been fighting for your soul
And sometimes it takes a toll
Hope one day you'll understand
What it means to hold in hands
What they call a fantasy
It is nothing but a key
To the world that now you're in
That they call a wicked dream

When you're walking on your own
When you're broken and alone
You may feel us from inside -
on the other side of life.
Ohohohoh...

I've been fighting for my soul
And sometimes it takes a toll
Hope one day we'll understand
What it means to hold in hands
What we call a fantasy
But it's nothing but a key
To the world that now I'm in
That we call a wicked dream

Oh, when walking on my own
When I'm broken and alone
You may feel you from inside
From the other side of life.





Enjoy

Look
Self-awareness, pride's a coat, and yes, I like to wear it
Buttoned up, don't like to let no air in
With a pair of gloves that I hope doesn't perish
I discovered, though, when I get holes in them
And I let joy in, I'm in higher spirits
My mistakes are like a screamin' parrot
Just repeating lyrics, I can barely bear it when I'm lost

Road is narrow, I'm lookin' down it like a gun's barrel
Aren't we all searchin' for the serum
That could help us breathe and leave our state of peril?
All of us have made defensive scarecrows
That we scatter 'round our fields and treat like heroes
When they scare away the things that we should cherish
'Cause we're too embarrassed to admit the fear is that we're lost

Yeah, but what does it matter? I get so combative
Inside of me's a personal canvas, the paint can be splattered
Get messy when I start to get rattled
The heart of a savage, I'm quiet when I lurk in the shadows
But somethin' don't add up, I don't wanna be overdramatic
But look at the data, it's obvious that humans are fragile
We tend to get mad at the ones that call us out
But the fact is we need someone that'll be honest when we fly off the handle

I admit I throw a fit when I begin to unravel
Keep my wits, been off the grid but now I'm back in the saddle
My intent is not to rent, I like to own what I value
I could sit here on the fence or maybe pick up the paddle
I like to row against the current, that's the way that I travel
Opposite of what the grain does, got the brain of a rebel
Take initiative, I'm diligent on every level
I never could settle, I like to keep my foot on the pedal, yeah

I'd love to pack arenas and all
But what I really wanna do is learn to handle my thoughts
And put the reins on 'em, show 'em I'm the one that's the boss
And pull 'em back when they get out of hand, I'm breakin' they jaws
I'm takin' the flaws that told me I could never evolve
Then pull a Bane on 'em, ask 'em, "Oh, you think you're in charge?"
You oughta know better, ain't no way around it, I'm flawed
The traits that I want, they say I can't afford what it cost

But I (I), manifested this
Failing's how you grow and learn your lessons, kids
Take the worst and try to make the best of it
'Cause when you fail, just know that it's a test and if
You can learn to pick yourself back up again
And train your brain to not be such a pessimist
It's okay to make mistakes, just don't forget that
There's a high road but I skip the exit when I'm lost

Yeah
When I'm lost
When I'm lost (lost)
When I'm lost
When I'm lost (lost), lost

Wow, these burdens are heavy
And I'm hopin' it don't bury me
I used to be joyful and skip so merrily
But now I'm too cautious and tip toe carefully
My mind left and it's nowhere to be found
Am I a big old parody?
'Cause it's no fair to me
And now I'm at the point where I'm spending a grand a week on hypnotherapy

Look, I'm tryna wash away my sins
I got a group of loved ones that ain't my friends
And if I ever take an L, then they might grin
And they all wanna see me stay in the cage I'm in
So when it comes to anybody, there's no trust for no one
Man, so what? My whole plan's to go nuts
My shoulders ready for more shrugs, I'm gon' judge
Anybody tryna enter my circle with no love (hold up)

My sanity's gone, I'd rather be torn from this planet they planted me on
Yes, that's a reward, I'm actually bored with having a sore heart
It's torn apart from a family that I don't have anymore (now hol' up)
I was livin' so oblivious with millions, it really was a pity, huh? (A pity, huh?)
It's kinda funny what a penny does, mixed in with a mini buzz (I feel stuck)

Life's got me by the neck, with a blade against it (what?)
'Cause I was runnin' late for the train and missed it (what?)
The only thing I feel is pain and vengeance (what?)
So I'ma act out like a raging misfit (what?)
And every verse I lay gon' stay sadistic (yeah)
You wanna hate me? Good, great, terrific (good)
You'll never see the day where my anger's dismissed
You better go and change your wishlist 'cause I

Yeah, manifested this
Do not treat me like some adolescent kid
I am praying to the Lord with the book of James
Hopin' he gon' add my testament
This dark cloud, that's my residence
Demons knockin', I don't have to let 'em in
I done made mistakes, day to day, you probably can't relate
I just ain't the same when I'm lost

Yeah
When I'm lost (when I'm, yeah)
When I'm lost (lost)
When I'm lost
When I'm lost (lost), lost

Crazy Train

Ozzy Osbourne


All aboard ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay, ay
Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate
Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame

I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
Let's go
I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role
Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane

I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I know that things are going wrong for me
You gotta listen to my words, yeah
Heirs of a cold war
That's what we've become
Inheriting troubles I'm mentally numb
Crazy, I just cannot bear
I'm living with something' that just isn't fair
Mental wounds not healing
Who and what's to blame

I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
