[Me]</i> I can't move, I can't feel my body
I don't remember anything
What place is this...how did I get here?
I don't understand, what's happening...
Am I alone?
[Fear]</i> You've been deserted, everyone has left you
You know it's always been that way
Those frantic years, the people you've neglected
Now the time has come to pay
You're alone
No one here is dancing to your tune
[Me]</i> Is this a dream or is it real?
[Reason]</i> Sometimes the dream becomes reality
[Me]</i> But I don't know what to feel
[Reason]</i> Then I will guide you through this haze
[Me]</i> But who are you, why are you here?
[Reason]</i> I am you and you are all of us
[Me]</i> I can't think, my mind ain't clear
[Reason]</i> Then I will free you from this maze
[Passion]</i> Can't you feel it burn
Deep down inside?
Won't you ever learn
Don't try to hide
Can't you feel that fire?
Scorching you soul?
A wounded man's desire
Out of control
[Pride]</i> I can't believe you're giving up
That's not your way
I can't believe you'd pass the chance to make them pay
You always had complete control
Never thinking twice
You always called the shots, a heart as cold as ice
[Me]</i> You are delusions of my mind
[Reason]</i> And so we are, we're all a part of you
[Me]</i> Am I a part of some design?
[Reason]</i> The one design is in your head
[Me]</i> How can it be you look so real...
[Reason]</i> We are as real as you imagine us
[Me]</i> I can touch you, I can feel...
[Reason]</i> Then take my hand and follow me
[Passion]</i> Can't you feel it burn
Deep down inside?
Won't you ever learn
Don't try to hide
Can't you feel that fire?
Scorching you soul?
A wounded man's desire
Out of control
[Pride]</i> I can't believe you're giving up
That's not your way
I can't believe you'd pass the chance to make them pay
You always had complete control
Never thinking twice
You always called the shots, a heart as cold as ice
[Love]</i> Close your eyes, listen to your heart beat
Surrender to its soothing pulse
Silence the cries, gentle and carefree
Good or bad, true or false...
You're not alone
You'll find me here whenever they oppose you
I am the strongest of them all
No need to fear these feelings that enclose you
I'm here to catch you when you fall
You're not alone
I am here dancing to your tune
[Passion]</i> Can't you feel it burn
Deep down inside?
Won't you ever learn
Don't try to hide
Can't you feel that fire?
Scorching you soul?
A wounded man's desire
Out of control
[Pride]</i> I can't believe you're giving up
That's not your way
I can't believe you'd pass the chance to make them pay
You always had complete control
Never thinking twice
You always called the shots, a heart as cold as ice
The lyrics DAY TWO: ISOLATION of AYREON is also present in the album The human equation (2004)
Ayreon è un progetto musicale progressive rock fondato nel 1995 dall'olandese Arjen Anthony Lucassen. Lucassen, compositore e polistrumentista di talento, ha concepito Ayreon come un concept album narrativo in cui diverse voci cantano i ruoli di personaggi immaginari all'interno di una storia fantascientifica complessa. Il primo album, "The Final Experiment", uscì nel 1998 e segnò l'inizio di un percorso musicale unico che ha visto la partecipazione di numerosi artisti ospiti provenienti da tutto il mondo. Tra i brani più rappresentativi di Ayreon si ricordano "The Day the World Stops Turning" e "Starseed", entrambi tratti dall'album "Universal Migrator Part 1: The Journey". Altri album importanti includono "01011001", "The Theory of Everything" e "Transitus", che hanno consolidato la posizione di Ayreon come progetto musicale innovativo e apprezzato dalla critica. Lucassen, con la sua abilità nel creare mondi musicali complessi e coinvolgenti, ha contribuito a definire il genere progressive rock contemporaneo.
