I'm a dweller on the threshold

And I'm waiting at the door

And I'm standing in the darkness

I don't want to wait no more

I have seen without perceiving

I have been another man

Let me pierce the realm of glamour

So I know just what I am

I'm a dweller on the threshold

And I'm waiting at the door

And I'm standing in the darkness

I don't want to wait no more

Feel the angel of the present

In the mighty crystal fire

Lift me up consume my darkness

Let me travel even higher

I'm a dweller on the threshold

As I cross the burning ground

Let me go down to the water

Watch the great illusion drown

I'm a dweller on the threshold

And I'm waiting at the door

And I'm standing in the darkness

I don't want to wait no more

I'm gonna turn and face the music

The music of the spheres

Lift me up consume my darkness

When the midnight disappears

I will walk out of the darkness

And I'll walk into the light

And I'll sing the song of ages

And the dawn will end the night

I'm a dweller on the threshold

And I'm waiting at the door

And I'm standing in the darkness

I don't want to wait no more

I'm a dweller on the threshold

And I cross some burning ground

And I'll go down to the water

Let the great illusion drown

I'm a dweller on the threshold

And I'm waiting at the door

And I'm standing in the darkness

I don't want to wait no more

I'm a dweller on the threshold

Dweller on the threshold

I'm a dweller on the threshold

I'm a dweller on the threshold
