(Gabriel:) Open my eyes and see my bleeding wounded hands Feeling the pain too hard to stand, to stand Caught in the 'now and here' while they are on the way. Hiding imagination, leading us astray (Lugaid:) Use your mind! You will leave the flesh dimensions behind Sanity can be the toll leading to the core of your soul (Gabriel (along to the voices in his head):) We are the power inside, We bring you fantasy, We are the kingdom of light and dreams, Gnosis and life: Avantasia! We are the power inside, We bring you fantasy. We are the kingdom of light and dreams, Gnosis and life: Avantasia! Avantasia Walking along the icy gallery of pain Tell me now: What can keep the flame alive? Lack of imagination - raising up the tower Where they hold our souls To take away the power (Lugaid:) Use your mind! You will leave your flesh dimensions behind. Sanity can be the toll leading to the core of your soul. (Gabriel:) We are the power inside, We bring you fantasy, We are the kingdom of light and dreams, Gnosis and life: Avantasia! We are the power inside, We bring you fantasy. We are the kingdom of light and dreams, Gnosis and life: Avantasia! (Solo: Henjo) We are the power inside, We bring you fantasy. We are the kingdom of light and dreams, Gnosis and life: Avantasia! Oh - Avantasia - oh Oh - I hear the voices - oh - yeah Oh - into the light - into the light Oh - Avantasia! oh!
