[Gabriel]
Where do I go?
Never had a very
Real dream before
Now I got a vision
Of an open door
Guiding me home
Where I belong
Dreamland I have come
Oh oh where do I go?
oh, yeah yeah
Never had a flesh
And blood like this before
Got a new appearance
When I passed the door
Is it a dream within?
Oh what is going on?
Down, down, down
Go down, go down, go down
I roam into nowhere
Don't see an end
Eternal wastelands
And I hear the voice
The voice, the voice, the voice
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Never been a fighter
Never been a man
But I must help Vandroiy
He's my only friend
Nowhere to go
But I know that he knows how
We will get her out
Magic of transcendence
Brought me to this place
Vandroiy in reality
Lead me on my race
Told me to bring back the seal
But still I don't know
Where I shall go
[Lugaid]
Can't you 'feel' the voice?
You don't have a choice
What a kind of life
Freedom in flesh
Shackles on your mind
Go all the way to the tower!
Find out the secrets behind!
Go all the way to the tower!
For all the wisdom
Of ages doesn't die
[Elderane]
Men have good intentions
On their way to the light
But some of them are venal
And end up in the night
Maybe it's better for you
Mankind, not to know
What's going on
[Gabriel]
Sometimes we must go
Ways that seem to be wrong
What a kind of life
Freedom in flesh
Shackles on your mind
[Lugaid]
Go all the way to the tower!
Find out the secrets behind!
Go all the way to the tower!
Find out the name of the one
Who reigns from inside. Ah
[Voice in the tower]
You have come
The long way through ages
To bring me the seven parts
Of the seal
So now throw it over the walls
Of the tower. Throw the seal!
[Pope]
But first Godfather, what
About the prophecy? What
About your reward: The ultimate
Illumination, the gnosis and the
Power to defend your kingdom
On earth with a strong hand?
What about the prophecy?
[Lugaid]
I realize
I realize
[All]
For the glory, for the glory
For the glory, for the glory
Oh, what is going on?
[Lugaid]
Gabriel I can feel
You have it back, book and seal!
Still no war is won
We have just begun
Go all the way to the tower!
Long for the secrets behind!
Go all the way to the tower!
Found out the name of the one
Who reigns from inside
Go all the way to the tower!
Long for the secrets behind!
Go all the way to the tower!
Found out the name of the one
Of the one
[Jakob]
Oh, how could the stranger
Steal the seal away?
Was it my fault?
Or was it no one's fault at all?
At all
