Savior in the Clockwork

Lyrics

[Joe Lynn Turner as Science:] I envision how you lie awake and agonize Over ways to bear your day just every night Re-alignment you're in need of so imploringly It's the pace that we'll maintain for you Oh, every moment everybody's gonna think alike Every second will be seized While every in between we'll erase To take the tangle from their memory Maximizing one and all for you now Into line bring them peace of mind by mind Set the pace for all mankind Let us take away the spaces In between their given time [Tobias Sammet as Blackwell:] Time to run! Savior in the clockwork tell me For how long will I wait on the grind? Time flies on (Time will fly on) Savior in the clockwork take me back inside In between the time Now am I half asleep or half unconscious Half 'adream'? I can't move as I am stuck in bright lucidity I can feel and hear and see But I won't comprehend I see fire that I won't decipher I see giant evil tower to a blackened sky I feel blessed with evidence of what I can't define Swinging blade of the lowering perpendicular I see clarity I won't remember Do I dream? Is it only fantasy and matter, just a thought I see? And time is all they need to steal away eternity, no Time to run! Savior in the clockwork tell me For how long will I wait on the grind? Time flies on (Time will fly on) Savior in the clockwork take me back inside In between the time [Biff Byford as Reason:] You pry into a world too far above Your head up in the haze [Blackwell:] Journey to the birth of the first sun Into the black womb of space [Reason:] Father primal space, oh yeah Who's drawn the light… [Lead guitar: Bruce Kulick] [Blackwell:] Standing at the door To epiphanic realization A journey to the centre of forever To the mystery of creation [Lead guitar: Sascha Paeth] [Reason:] Don't you hear the voice: I'm with you I'm everywhere and real You can see me, you can hear me without credence I'm what your hands can feel [Blackwell:] God, I feel I've been away too long I feel like I've been dreaming [Reason:] If you'd open up your door to explanation You would hear the voice of reason screaming [Blackwell:] I've seen the ocean swallow the ancient harmony [Reason:] And I've seen belief and craving swallow sanity [Blackwell:] I feel my hand is led to ink between the lines [Reason:] Tall stories legendizing: figments of the lie [Blackwell:] At crack of dawn hazy remains above my mind [Michael Kiske as Antiquarian:] Raise your mind [Blackwell:] I scribble down those icons that I can't define Will they demand account as I'd demand myself [Antiquarian:] Raise your mind [Blackwell:] I'll never testify what no man comprehends [Antiquarian:] And they will tear to pieces what they can't define [Blackwell:] Raise your mind [Reason:] If you don't follow your self-preservation drive [Antiquarian:] They'll crucify the one who won't affiliate [Blackwell:] Raise your mind [Reason:] But decorate the children of their ego's way [Reason:] Time to run savior in the clockwork [Blackwell:] Tell me for how long will I wait on the grind? [Reason:] Time flies on (Time will fly on) Savior in the clockwork [Blackwell:] Take me back inside In between the time Time to run! Savior in the clockwork tell me For how long will I wait on the grind? Time flies on (Time will fly on) Savior in the clockwork take me back inside In between the time
