Beyond the Edge of It All Lyrics

Entrapped in eternity
Condemned to infinity
Locked in perpetuity
For all time, forever and ever

Concealed in the shadows
On the fringe of time
They lie in waiting, in dark they hide
A small deviation, one tiny flaw
They breach the barrier,
Break down the wall

Then they arise out of nowhere,
Guardians of time
Assigned to save us from a force malign
Inside they've always known
Their fate was determined
No one will ever hear their call
Outside those walls
Beyond the edge of it all

[Solo: Arjen Lucassen]

From the 4th dimension,
The solitude of space
They guard the timeline,
Protect our race
A bedtime story, a photograph
An old railway station,
All remnants from the past

Then they arise out of nowhere,
Guardians of time
Assigned to save us from a force malign
Inside they've always known
Their fate was determined
No one will ever hear their call
Outside those walls
Beyond the edge of it all

Entrapped in eternity
Condemned to infinity
Locked in perpetuity
For all time, forever and ever

Entrapped in eternity (no, no)
Condemned to infinity (it's all over)
Locked in perpetuity (we all fall down)
For all time, forever and ever

Entrapped in eternity (operators)
Condemned to infinity (investigators)
Locked in perpetuity (infiltrators)
For all time, forever and ever (manipulators)

Entrapped in eternity
(Turn away from the past)
Condemned to infinity
(Let go at last)
Locked in perpetuity
(Escape from time)
For all time, forever and ever
(Leave it all behind)

They were taken, forsaken
Will we ever hear their call
Beyond the edge of it all
