STREAM OF PASSION LYRICS

1. Intro




2. Spellbound


I'm ready
With my eyes open wide
Living to devour all this light
Soon, as every sun has faded
You cannot turn away
Follow my voice and feel the pull
I'm ready
As I've never been before
Your need to give in
Grows ever stronger
Rest assured I will not leave you
Until your world is mine
Come closer to me and let go


3. Passion


A dangerous stream of passion
Flows through my veins
Infecting my mind with madness
Blurring my senses
My fingers crawl like spiders
Caressing the wall
In desperate need of screaming
For a way out
This feeling's rushing through me, and again
I'm willing to surrender
To the violent notes that spin around
I'd give it up for you
This feeling's clinging to me, and again
I'm willing to surrender
I could lose my breath, but even then
I'd give it up for you
A dangerous stream of passion
Flows through my heart
The melodies sung in secret
Tear me apart
Emotions fade into music
And drift through the night,
Determined to wander freely
Forever more


4. Waracle


ayreon sings of the uselessness of the countless wars to come,
and the absurdity of the final annihilation by the push of just one button
by just one man.

[ayreon:]
echoes of a thousand screams
smoke, blood and fire
a deserted battlefield
millions of men will die
at one man's desire
and the docile mass will yield

all through the ages
men will die before their time
in an everlasting war
as long as man is taught
that war is not a crime
man will fight for evermore

out of the ashes
a war-lord will arise
and tyrannize the land
his reign of terror
will cost many a sacrifice
an inferno is at hand

all through the centuries
men will be caged
in the name of liberty
as long as man shall live
wars will be waged
or will we ever be set free?
set me free!

the road to ruin
gets shorter all the time
as technology will improve
it takes but one man
to commit the ultimate crime
and make the final move


5. Wherever You Are


I believe that this game is far from over
Your eyes, everchanging
Shred my beliefs
Elusive as air, your million faces
Share a smile, shed a tear
Then you're hiding again
Wherever you are, I'll find you
And leave my life behind
Wherever you are, I'll find you
I'm leaving now
Every moment of faith
Flows unattended
Pressing thoughts so misleading
Into my head
Come out of the dark
Don't keep me waiting
For the pain is too deep...
Hear me! Come out! Free me!


6. Computer Eyes


Lost in a world created by Man
I can't recall how it all began
Tell me who am I?

Fictional stars in lost Galaxies
Synthetic dreams and false Memories
Is it all a lie?

There is no escape
There is no way out of here
I'm locked in this universe
The real world will disappear
Where fantasy dies
You will see our dreams
Material lies
Materialize
Computer eyes
Computerize

Virtual reality - computer Override
Actual fantasy locked away Inside
Am I no more than a Program
An artificial dream
A river of electrons flowing With the stream
A parallel dimension battle Simulations
Mind over matter brain Stimulation
I don't know if I exist I think Therefore I am
Without emotions I'm but a Hologram
There's no escape I'm locked In this universe
Where fantasy dies material Lies
Computer eyes

There is no escape
There is no way out of here
I'm locked in this universe
The real world will disappear
Where fantasy dies
You will see our dreams
Material lies
Materialize
Computer eyes
Computerize


7. Calliopeia


Let the evening air in
And dim the lights
Reality's fading
As our minds fly
A heavenly glow...
The muse has spoken
The grace of her song...
Calliopeia
Every hour, every day
My search goes on
My precious memories
Are all I have left
I gave my soul away
For a dream, for an illusion
Who will lead me now?
Drowning in tears, I turn to you


8. Valley Of The Queens


[egyptian:]
my journey's over
I'm standing on the edge
and close my eyes
to this world of lies

my will is broken
it's the end of all my dreams
my soul yearns
for the valley of the queens

my rose has withered
it will never bloom again
the soil is dry
time has come to die

my faith has left me
they've stolen all my dreams
oh lay me down
in the valley of the queens

my search has ended
my name is carved in stone
on the temple wall
beyond Osiris hall

no holy sunrays
will light my tomb of dreams
I won't return
from the valley of............the queens


9. Haunted


Dias enteros
Caminando en silencio
Apuro mis pasos
Para dejar todo atràs
Busco en la soledad
El espacio para olvidar
Esa voz que me atormenta
(Entire days I spend walking in silence
I hurry my steps to leave everything behind
In solitude I search for a space
To forget that voice that haunts me)
I live in fear
When the shadows reappear
Unleashing all their might
I never thought
I'd face the demons on my own
Make it stop!
Haunted, hunted
Un suspiro que penetra mi alma
Un pensamiento constante e hiriente
Sé que estás ahi, aunque no puedo verte,
Nunca he podido escapar
Del yugo de tus ojos
(A whisper that digs into my soul,
a constant and upsetting thought
I know you're there, even though I can't see you
I was never able to escape from
Your cruel eyes)
With every breath I take
My heart beats faster
No matter how hard I try to unwind
Tears keep falling from my eyes
Haunted, hunted
I'm down on my knees
Forever I'll mourn
The loss of my innocence


10. The Charm Of The Seer


ayreon understands that he was not individually chosen
for the 'time telepathy experiment',
but that he unintentionally received its transmissions.
this could be because of a more developed sixth sense
as a result of his blindness.
he also realises that he can neither accomplish his mission,
nor stop the visions from penetrating his mind.
his sole escape is to submit to the magic charm of the great seer merlin.

[ayreon:]
I've been lost in the valley of nightmares
I've been found in the garden of dreams
speak thy charm, I know you are out there
cast thy spell and silence the screams

but as I poise on the edge of life
where time disappears
I bow in fear
to the charm of the seer

I've seen fear in valiant faces
I've seen hope in desperate eyes
lead me home to familiar places
lead me back to crystalline skies

and as I poise on the edge of life
where time disappears
I bow in fear
to the charm of the seer

I have failed, I have been forsaken
I've been scorned and misunderstood
I have lost, my life has been taken
I'd surrender if only I could


11. Deceiver - Songs Of The Ocean


For long
I have been hiding
And all the pain I hold within
Sends shivers down my spine
For long
I have been waiting
For a reason to arise
Was it all a waste of time?
I am not who you think I am,
Soon I'll be letting you down
I am not who you think I am
I'm everywhere
You think I have been lying,
There are secrets
That lie frozen in my silent stare
If you go through my fears
You will see I've lost control
All the faith I had is gone
Step back,
Watch me closely
As my crimson wings unfold
You'll see me as I am
I know, it won't be easy
But in the end you'll understand
My instinctive need to fly


12. Day One: Vigil


[Best Friend:]
Did he open up his eyes?
Did he try to touch my hand
Or is my mind playing tricks on me...

Do you think he hears us cry?
Does he understand
We are here by his side

[Wife:]
Why are you so concerned?
Do you really care
Or do you feel responsible?

Now the tide has turned
Won't you try to clear the air?
Let your conscience be your guide...


13. Day Three: Pain


[Agony:]
I am pain
I am real. I'm not a dream
I'm the chain around your neck as you scream

Surrender now
You can't beat death at his ruthless game
Make your bow
Hang your head in shame

[Me:] I can't believe there is no way out...
[Agony:] You'll find you are wrong
[Me:] You fill me with doubt...
[Agony:] You were never that strong

[Agony:]
I am pain
I am the wound that never heals
It's all in vain
No compromise, no deals...

[Me:] I can't believe this is the end
[Agony:] It's written in stone
[Me:] Where are my friends?
[Agony:] You have always been alone!

[Rage:]
(Pain!) We lead
We hide as the pain leaves the rage inside
(Motion personified alpha)
Being here, welcomed by...a sane mind
A travelled lie

[Agony:]
I am pain
I am the end, I am your wraith
Nothing remains
I'm the loss of hope and faith

[Me:] I can't believe there is no way out...
[Agony:] You'll I find you are wrong
[Me:] You fill me with doubt...
[Agony:] You were never that strong

[Rage:]
We lead, we hide as the pain leaves the rage inside
(Motion personified alpha)
Being here, welcomed by...a sane mind
A travelled lie
All the time, I had waited with rage
All the time, I was promised my salvation

[Love:]
I can't accept this, we will find a way
Out of this cesspool of doom and dismay
Beyond this dejection there's beauty and grace
A glorious future we long to embrace

[Rage:]
(Pain!) All the time, I have waited with rage
(Motion personified alpha)
All the time, I was promised my salvation


14. Nostalgia


[Verse 1]
Con la vista sobre el mar,
Busca entre las olas una señal,
Algo que le ayude a olvidar la verdad.

[Verse 2]
Toda una vida de lágrimas.
Cede a la locura y luego calla,
Por amor a un dia que jamás volverá.

[Verse 3]
Cuando la rosa muera,
Calmará sus ansias en letras vanas,
Por amor a un dia que jamás volverá.
Por amor a un dia que jamás volverá.

[English translation:]

With her eyes fixed on the sea,
She looks for a sign among the waves,
Something to make her forget the truth,

An entire life filled with tears.
She surrenders to the madness,
Then goes quiet,
For the love of a day, that will never come back.

When the rose dies,
She'll find peace in those useless words,
For the love of a day, that will never come back,
For the love of a day, that will never come back.


15. Out In The Real World


I've hidden wishes for so long
Buried deep inside,
Keeping them secret from a world
That'll never realize
The way I dream
"Puedo ver esos ríos de luz
Escapar de mi piel, hacia la fantasía"
Out the real world
You are waiting to take my hand
I'll be looking for answer
That leads me back
I lack the will to face my fears
I'm running from it all
And all the painful memories
They haunt me once again
I'm giving up...
Out in the real world
You are waiting to hear my call,
Through a river of illusions
You saw me fall
Out in the real world
You are waiting to take my hand
I'll be looking for answer
That leads me back
Outside, back in your arms
No matter how hard it may seem
We should never hide
The little things that make us real
Show them who we truly are
We will in time
"Puedo ver esos ríos de luz
Escapar de mi piel, hacia la fantasía
Hay en mi tanto temor
Tanto mal que ocultar "
(I can see rivers of light
Flowing from my skin and toward fantasy
There's so much fear within me
So many faults to hide)


16. The Castle Hall


At last! You enter the Electric Castle! Here in this vast hall where even shadows fear the
light - here you must confront your past. If you have killed, beware of the Gathering of Spirits
for they do fish for men. Here, the disembodied Astral World becomes flesh once more. I pity the
men of swords.
For here blood runs cold...

[barbarian:]
cries from the grave resound in my ears
they hail from beyond my darkest fears
faces of the past are etched in my brain
the women I raped, the men I've slain

shades of the dead are sliding on the wall
demons dance in the castle hall

[knight:]
I call upon the sword, the mighty Excalibur
grant me the skill to fulfill my quest

I call upon my king and the knights of the table round
grant me the courage to stand to this test

I call upon the seer, Merlin the sorcerer
grant me the magic to end my pain

I call upon the spirit that lives in a noble heart
grant me the passion that's within my veins

shades of the dead are sliding on the wall
demons dance in the castle hall

[repeat hall]


17. Into The Black Hole


We have reached our first destination: the black hole in the Virgo cluster of galaxies.
But what will we find inside? Its power is immeasurable. Our hopes and fears intermingle
as we stand at the event horizon. Will its
doorway transport us to our faraway planet Earth, or will its fury mercilessly tear us
apart?
[Bruce Dickinson, Lana Lane]

[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


18. When The Levee Breaks


[Led Zeppelin cover]

If it keeps on rainin', levee's goin' to break, [x2]
When The Levee Breaks I'll have no place to stay.

Mean old levee taught me to weep and moan, [x2]
Got what it takes to make a mountain man leave his home,
Oh, well, oh, well, oh, well.

Don't it make you feel bad
When you're tryin' to find your way home,
You don't know which way to go?
If you're goin' down South
They go no work to do,
If you don't know about Chicago.

Cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
Now, cryin' won't help you, prayin' won't do you no good,
When the levee breaks, mama, you got to move.

All last night sat on the levee and moaned, [x2]
Thinkin' about me baby and my happy home.
Going, going to Chicago... Going to Chicago... Sorry but I can't take you...
Going down... going down now... going down....


19. Day Eleven: Love


[Me:]
Friday night, I had a few
There she was, out of the blue
Thunderstruck, nailed to the floor
I couldn't move, couldn't talk...anymore

[Love:]
Of all these guys it's you she desires
Secretly her heart is on fire
Waiting for you to ask her to dance
Go ahead, make your move...now's your chance

[Passion:]
Do it right, do it right, we ain't got all night
Do it now, do it now, I think you know how
[Pride] Let it out, let it out, now don't mess about
Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!

[Me:]
There I was, nervous and shy
Struck with awe as I caught her eye
I mustered up courage and walked her way
Figuring out what to do...what to say

[Love:]
Her heart sings as she sees you come near
The music fades, the crowd disappears
She weeps in silence as you pass her by
And she's wondering why...oh why

[Passion:]
Do it right, do it right, we ain't got all night
Do it now, do it now, I think you know how
[Pride] Let it out, let it out, now don't mess about
Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!

[Agony:]
Remember your father, well you're just like him
Nothing but violence and fury within
Remember your mother, so lonely and sad
This will be her fate if you treat her as bad

[Fear:]
You're afraid she might turn you down
All your hopes dashed to the ground
Nobody loved you, nobody will
Why should you even try...but still...

[Me:] Friday night, I had a few
[Wife:] There was no need to talk
[Me:] There she was, out of the blue
[Wife:] We just started to walk
[Me:] Hand in hand, we took the floor
[Wife:] And we danced, and we danced, and we danced
[Me:] I could move, I could talk...even more...

[Passion:]
Do it right, do it right, we ain't got all night
Do it now, do it now, I think you know how
[Pride:]
Let it out, let it out, now don't mess about
Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!

[Agony:]
Remember your father, well you're just like him
Nothing but violence and fury within
Remember your mother, so lonely and sad
This will be her fate if you treat her as bad

[Passion:]
Do it right, do it right, we ain't got all night
Do it now, do it now, I think you know how
[Pride:]
Let it out, let it out, now don't mess about
Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!

[Agony:]
Remember your father, well you're just like him
Nothing but violence and fury within
Remember your mother, so lonely and sad
This will be her fate if you treat her as bad

[Passion:]
Do it right, do it right, we ain't got all night
Do it now, do it now, I think you know how
[Pride:]
Let it out, let it out, now don't mess about
Let her in, let her in, let the party begin!
