2. Set Your Controls
Set Your Controls
[Russell:]
Welcome aboard, let me draw you deep inside
The dark caves of my twisted mind
Welcome aboard, take a seat and dim the light
[Floor and Russell:]
Empty your mind, sit back and hold on tight
[Russell:]
Break away through the walls of reality
Enter the realm on the other side
Break away from the cold rationality
Now is the time to open up your mind
[Damian and Floor:]
Set your controls
Enter a date and see what our future holds
What kind of fate awaits us there in the night
As we dissolve into the light
Set your controls
Enter a place and witness mysteries unfold
Dangers we'll face as our engines ignite
Blazing our way into the light
[Floor:]
Set your controls
[Russell:]
Throw the switch, get ready for some turbulence
Brace yourself with all your might
Throw the switch and tempt the laws of providence
[Floor and Russell:]
Empty your mind, sit back and hold on tight
[Russell:]
Turn the dials and watch the years go by
Light years away, far beyond our sun
Turn the dials, into the void we fly
There's no way back once it has begun
[Damian and Floor:]
Set your controls
Enter a date and see what our future holds
What kind of fate awaits us there in the night
As we dissolve into the light
Set your controls
Enter a place and witness mysteries unfold
Dangers we'll face as our engines ignite
Blazing our way into the light
[Floor:]
Set your controls
[Robert:]
The die is cast
You fade to black
Forget the past
There's no way back
The die is cast
You fade to black
Forget the past
There's no way back
[Ad Libs Russell]
[Damian and Floor:]
Set your controls
Enter a date and see what our future holds
What kind of fate awaits us there in the night
As we dissolve into the light
Set your controls
Enter a place and witness mysteries unfold
Dangers we'll face as our engines ignite
Blazing our way into the light
[Floor:]
Set your controls
3. High Moon
High Moon
[Robert:]
Memories come back to me, it's the 22nd century
Unthinkable events occur on the 3rd moon of Jupiter
[Russell:]
I'd leave this hellhole if I could
The mining's hard but the pay is good
There is only one way to survive
I take the drug to stay alive
[Damian:]
The shuttlecraft has landed, the killers have arrived
I know I'm alone here, there is no one on my side
I'm ready for the showdown, so let the chase begin
I will not be defeated
I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon
[Floor:]
High moon
High moon
High moon
High moon
[Robert:]
The company is trying to hide the higher rates of suicide
There's no pain and much to gain, but then the drug destroys their brain
[Russell:]
I gotta leave this evil place
I don't belong in outer space
Outside it's zero atmosphere
The only way to get out of here
[Damian:]
The shuttlecraft has landed, the killers have arrived
I know I'm alone here, there is no one on my side
I'm ready for the showdown, so let the chase begin
I will not be defeated
I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon
[Floor:]
High Moon
[Robert:]
He had to choose between his part in this machine
Or going back with her to earth
He never had a choice, but when he heard her voice
He fought for all that he was worth
He had to choose between his part in this machine
[Damian:]
I had to choose, I could not lose
Or going back with her to earth
Had to get back to you
He never had a choice, but when he heard her voice
I had no choice, I heard your voice
He fought for all that he was worth
I had to survive, had to stay alive
[Floor:]
High moon
High moon
[Ad libs Russell]
[Damian:]
The shuttlecraft has landed, the killers have arrived
I know I'm alone here, there is no one on my side
I'm ready for the showdown, so let the chase begin
I will not be defeated
I have made a solemn vow to leave here soon
[Floor:]
High Moon
4. Dreamtime
Dreamtime
This is the voice of Merlin. listen well, for it concerns you. This chronicle commences in the year 2084 a.d. Mankind has virtually
destroyed itself. It's survival depends on 'the final experiment'. Let us go back to the dark ages...dark ages...dark ages...
[Russell:]
A cry in the silence
A shine in the dark
Like a rising star
The dream is coming
Images of violence
A flight through time and space
It's such a lonely place
The dream has started
[Russell and Floor:]
The smoke is rising
The vision's getting clearer
And words become a song
[Russell:]
In the dreamtime
I've lost control
Marooned and cold
I suffer the fears
Of a future untold
I cannot change
The shape of things to come
[Russell and Floor:]
The smoke is rising
The vision's getting clearer
And words become a song
[Russell:]
In the dreamtime
5. Eyes of Time
Eyes of Time
[Damian:]
I cannot see with these eyes
My world is dark
Like a cold eternal night
I could not tell you no lies
My words are lost
In a shroud of mystery
[Floor:]
Tell me what you see
[Damian:]
I cannot tell you now
I see the world through the eyes of time
[Floor:]
Tell me what you feel
[Damian:]
I wouldn't know how
I cannot free my mind
[Floor:]
From the eyes of time
[Damian:]
I do not know where I am
I'm lost in time
Drifting in eternity
I cannot tell if it's real
Or fantasy
Or a view of things to come
[Floor:]
Tell me what you see
[Damian:]
I cannot tell you now
I see the world through the eyes of time
[Floor:]
Tell me what you feel
[Damian:]
I wouldn't know how
I cannot free my mind
[Floor:]
From the eyes of time
[Robert:]
I'm still trying to understand
Why do I see the things I see
Could it be a future world
That's warning us through me
I'm still trying to understand
Why do I know the things I know
Does it mean I'm a god
Will nobody tell me so?
[Floor:]
Tell me what you see
[Damian:]
I cannot tell you now
I see the world through the eyes of time
[Floor:]
Tell me what you feel
[Damian:]
I wouldn't know how
I cannot free my mind
[Floor:]
Tell me what you see
[Damian:]
I cannot tell you now
I see the world through the eyes of time
[Floor:]
Tell me what you feel
[Damian:]
I wouldn't know how
I cannot free my mind
6. Songs of the Ocean
Songs of the Ocean
[Robert:]
As we return to earth, memories are haunting me
My strange rebirth, coming back to life
I remember the dark and how my friends set me free
I sacrificed my life so they could survive
[Floor:]
There's something wrong on planet Earth
We can not reach our world
Some strange device slowly emerged
Can you hear the cries?
There's something wrong, what can we do?
We can't communicate
All systems fail, all power too
We can't reply
[Robert:]
It must be unaware of the damage it's creating
They are reaching out to the seven seas
It's not with man they're communicating
We're going back in time, back in history
[Floor:]
There's something wrong, what can we do?
We can't communicate
All systems fail, all power too
We can't reply
[Russell and Damian:]
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
[Floor:]
There's something wrong on planet Earth
We can't reply
[Russell and Damian:]
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
[Robert:]
I remember the dark and how my friends set me free
I sacrificed my life so they could survive
[Floor:]
There's something wrong, what can we do?
We can't communicate
All systems fail, all power too
We can't reply
[Russell and Damian:]
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We shape life, we travel space
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
We survived the 'human race'
But we don't know the words to the songs of the ocean
7. Dawn of a Million Souls
Dawn of a Million Souls
[Russell:]
At the birth of time, the beginning of beginnings
One cosmic soul was created
A bringer of life, a universal migrator
Born to sow its seeds in all the galaxies
Like a cell dividing, it spreads in all directions
Creating life among the stars
I'm struck with awe as I join the great migrator
Now it takes flight to the brightest star of all
[Russell:]
On a quest for life, through the sable skies
What a show!
[Floor:]
What a show!
[Russell:]
Behold!
[Floor:]
Behold!
[Russell and Floor:]
The dawn of a million souls
[Russell:]
On a bold crusade, in the realm of shade
What a show!
[Floor:]
What a show!
[Russell:]
Behold!
[Floor:]
Behold!
[Russell and Floor:]
The dawn of a million souls
[Russell:]
Through the glowing mist, like a fog of radiation
I can see the forming of new planets
I've been struck by thunder as I witness all the splendour
And I realise how small we really are
[Russell:]
On a quest for life, through the sable skies
What a show!
[Floor:]
What a show!
[Russell:]
Behold!
[Floor:]
Behold!
[Russell and Floor:]
The dawn of a million souls
[Russell:]
On a bold crusade, in the realm of shade
What a show!
[Floor:]
What a show!
[Russell:]
Behold!
[Floor:]
Behold!
[Russell and Floor:]
The dawn of a million souls
[Russell:]
On a quest for life, through the sable skies
What a show!
[Floor:]
What a show!
[Russell:]
Behold!
[Floor:]
Behold!
[Russell and Floor:]
The dawn of a million souls
[Russell:]
On a bold crusade, in the realm of shade
What a show!
[Floor:]
What a show!
[Russell:]
Behold!
[Floor:]
Behold!
[Russell and Floor:]
The dawn of a million souls
[Russell:]
Ooh, I can see forever
On the wings of dreams I fly
Is this real or is it just a fantasy?
What awaits me now?

9. Into the Black Hole
Into the Black Hole
[Damian:]
A dark sphere surrounds us
[Floor:]
Surreal...oblivious...
[Damian:]
In the centre of the galaxy
A hidden force has found us
[Floor:]
Powerful...mysterious...
[Damian:]
At the boundary of eternity
[Floor:]
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
[Damian:]
Nothing escapes, not even light
Beyond the mystical horizon
We surrender to its might
Gazing into the eye of the universe
[Damian:]
A deep roar is sounding
[Floor:]
Deafening...thunderous...
[Damian:]
As if the universe were crying
My heart is pounding
[Floor:]
Frantic...delirious...
[Damian:]
My every nerve is dying
[Floor:]
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
[Damian:]
Nothing escapes, not even light
Beyond the mystical horizon
We surrender to its might
Gazing into the eye of the universe
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
[Damian:]
Now silence devours us
[Floor:]
Massive...suffocating...
[Damian:]
The calm before the storm
Gravity overpowers us
[Floor:]
Invincible...dominating...
[Damian:]
And leads us through the final door
[Floor:]
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
Aaaaahhhh
[Damian:]
Nothing escapes, not even light
Beyond the mystical horizon
We surrender to its might
Gazing into the eye of the universe
[Floor:]
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feel my might, I'm the eye of the universe
Feed me light, I'm the halo of darkness
Feel my might, I'm the eye of the universe
10. Actual Fantasy
Actual Fantasy
[Robert:]
Sit back and relax
Crawl into the maze
Within your mind
Leave it all behind
Now allow yourself to
Slide into a world
As real as you want it to be
Actual fantasy
11. Valley of the Queens
Valley of the Queens
[Floor:]
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 have 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
