Reach Out for the Light Lyrics


[Gabriel:]
Yeah - yeahLord above - why don't you tell me
why I'm here in agony?
I've been serving, I've been praying,
now I'm caught in misery.I've been praised by friar Jakob,
I misused his confidence.
Cheated by this work of evil -
Feigning Anna's innocence.Oh what have I done?
So many ways lead to the fallen one,
Lucifer, fallen light
Oh what have I done?
What is going on?-We should bring salvation,
not give in to his temptation - no!
Read and preach the holy word
and no forbidden lies that hurt.
I remember words of "seven".
Set me free - sanity! -[Lugaid:]
Reach out for the light

far beyond confines.
You have read the magic lines
leading to the light in your mind[Gabriel:]
What is right and what is wrong now?
Is it a trial of paradise?
Is Anna a witch or do they stick to an error?
What's the book and the seal inside?Am I a cleric or maybe a sinner?
Unbeliever? Renegade?
Was it the devil who led me to "seven"?
Oh redeemer is it all too late?Oh what have I done?
I have been led by the smelling one,
Lucifer, fallen light
Tell me stranger, what have I done?
Oh what is going on? Yeah-We should bring salvation,
not give in to his temptation - no!
Read and preach the holy word
and no forbidden lies that hurt.
I remember words of "seven".
Set me free - sanity! -[Lugaid:]
Reach out for the light
far beyond confines.
You have read the magic lines
leading to the light[Gabriel:]
in your mind? Yeah - oh - yeah[Lugaid:]
Reach out for the light
far beyond confines.
You have read the magic lines
leading to the light in your mind

Avantasia, from Germany, is the side-project of Edguy singer Tobias Sammet, founded in 1999. Two concept albums were released (The Metal Opera, The Metal Opera Pt. II), their structures similar to that of an opera. Both can be classified as power metal and/or symphonic metal. After the second album, Sammet announced that there would not be any more Avantasia albums. However, in January 2008 a third album was released, titled The Scarecrow. On November 16th 2007 two 6-track albums Lost in space Part 1 and Lost in space Part 2 were released. On April 2nd 2010 two new full-length albums were released, The Wicked Symphony and Angel Of Babylon, completing the Scarecrow Trilogy. In March 2011 the first Avantasia live CD and DVD called The Flying Opera were released. The contents were based on the footage taken during The Scarecrow tour in 2008, recorded on Wacken Open Air (Germany) and Masters of Rock (Vizovice, Czech Republic) music festivals.
