15. Point of No Return (6:37)
Oh, he's movin' on coming home
Oh, he's movin' on coming home
He's been away too long
(Do I get any nearer)
(Do I get any nearer)
My intention's good, unleash the beast
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up
At least I'm trying
My mind, it tends to slip away
(This might be your last chance)
Search wisdom in a mad man's gaze
Faces and places
(Far, far away)
Dark ages and pages
(It's all revealed to me)
Yet everything, it shall go down
Ages will go by, there's no sound
The storm's gone by, this supernova
Defines a golden age
The dawning of a second sun
Will mark my dying day
Like a rolling stone
Let your senses roam
To another world
While the chains are on
Find this precious stone
Do not wait, my son
Leave this world you know
Find the key to be free
Will it ever be the same
Their bliss is gone away free
It will never be the same
They are a dying race
Oh, I'm marching on, carry on
This world will fade to grey, it's going down
Going down
Come along, come along with me
(We leave the ashes)
Come along, just follow me
We will meet the wizard
Come along, come along with me
He's the bearer of light
Come along, come along with me
He's the one to believe
While I head into the storm
There's no need to walk alone
Nor will I be on my own
Cause he will be the one I know
Entangled forevermore
These wars we fight
Conceal all light
That's what I'm here for
Oh, I wonder why
I wonder how it all turned wrong
Somehow, I fear all magic's gone
You now conceive
This is the point of no return
Rise or fall of the old gods
This is the point of no return
Rise or fall again
I've come for blood, it's likely
That most of you despise me
The pharaoh's long gone
Now let my kingdom come
Yes, I'm the one who's sown the seven plagues
Now grow
This deed means trouble
Make sure there's no more magic, but black magic
No one else should know
We must obstruct their ways discretely
Take hold of the flame
Take part in my revenge
Now enter the storm
Take hold of the flame
And the bell chimes no more
It's time to kill the spark and
I think it's time to kill them all
Oh, watch the trial of men has begun
It has begun
We make them believe
Our reign lasts forevermore
No guiding light
No sacred life
The secret eye knows
Wake up, my friend now
Wake up, my friend now
The second sun appears
A new breeze, a new dawn, a new day
Tell them all
This is the point of no return
Rise or fall of the old gods
This is the point of no return
Rise or fall again
This is the point of no return
Rise or fall of the old gods
This is the point of no return
Rise or fall again
You think therefore you are
Now lay down your head and drowse
This silence will comfort you
So don't break this silence
We're gods on the run
We're gods on the run
I think therefore I am and
I'll enlighten you
But I fear that it's over now
Oh, he's movin' on coming home
He's been away too long
(Do I get any nearer)
(Do I get any nearer)
My intention's good, unleash the beast
Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up
At least I'm trying
My mind, it tends to slip away
(This might be your last chance)
Search wisdom in a mad man's gaze
Faces and places
(Far, far away)
Dark ages and pages
(It's all revealed to me)
Yet everything, it shall go down
Ages will go by, there's no sound
The storm's gone by, this supernova

It will never be the same
