Do not feel afraid as you step into the light Climb aboard and I will take you for a ride A ride across the stars I will show you things that few have seen before I will take you down the prophet's corridor Show you who you are I hold the keys to secrets some long to tear apart I am the painter, artist, the ruler of this court He who knows the truth Come, enjoy my world, if only for a day Learn to conquer the madness leading you astray Come and be alive Where so few have survived My question is sincere And the answer's all too clear Hear if you have ears See if you have eyes The sinner in disguise The keys to paradise This is the age of the rising This is the time you'll start to fall Starlight on the horizon The word of wisdom on the wall This is the world you live in This is the place you've come to know (but not for long) We'll find our way home Ships of heavy metal Fly across the stars Amateurs and scholars Hold your heads up high Joined in revelation No matter who we are Angels of fraternity Arrive in our sky This is the age of the rising This is the time you'll start to fall Starlight on the horizon The word of wisdom on the wall This is the world you live in This is the place you've come to love Where you will be forgiven As soon as you see things from above I am the alpha-omega I am the beginning and the end I am the now and forever Climb aboard and see, my friend This is the path you've chosen Stars are falling all around But you are everlasting
