The Tower Lyrics


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 where do I go?
Never had a flesh and blood like this before
Got a new appearance when I passed the door
Is it a dream I am withing? Oh, what's 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
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
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
Sometimes we must go
Ways that seem to be wrong
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
Find out the name of the one
Who reigns from inside
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
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?
I realize for the glory, for the glory, for the glory
For the glory Oh - what is going on?
For the glory, for the glory, for the glory
For the glory Oh - what is going on?
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
Oh, how could the stranger steal the seal away?
Was it my fault? Or was it no one's fault at all?

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.
