[Sammet]



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...



[Bridge]

Use your mind!

You will leave the flesh dimensions behind

Sanity can be the toll

Leading to the core of your soul



[Chorus]

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.



[Bridge]



[Chorus]



[Solo]



[Chorus]



We are the power inside, we bring you fantasy

We are the kingdom of light and dreams

Gnosis and life... Avantasia!
