"11 years earlier
The Father, a brilliant scientist, has devoted his life to finding the Theory of Everything, the equation that will fully explain and unite all physical forces of the universe. He's obsessively working day and night; unaware that his wife and introverted son need far more attention that he has been giving them. The Mother has always supported her husband's scientific pursuits, but the strain of dealing with their asocial child's special needs has worn her down to the point of desperation."
[Father:]
I'm so close to the answer
A dazzling symphony of cosmic strings
I feel the pulse, vibrating just out of reach
The music of space
One single master equation
Unification of the great and small
I hear the notes but the arrangement is wrong
And I'm starting to doubt, but I can't give up now I'm so near
[Mother:]
Can't you see that I need you out here?
And what about our boy?
I think he's got something to give
What secrets lie... beyond these hollow eyes?
[Father:]
I'm sorry you feel neglected
But it's clear that you don't understand
I'm aware, and I want to be there
I just need some more time, for the answer is blindingly near
[Mother:]
Are you trying to drive us away
Just when we need you most?
You might find he's got something to give
What secrets lie... beyond these eyes?
Ayreon is a progressive rock music project founded in 1995 by Dutch composer and multi-instrumentalist Arjen Anthony Lucassen. Lucassen, a talented composer and multi-instrumentalist, conceived Ayreon as a narrative concept album where different voices sing the roles of imaginary characters within a complex science fiction story. The first album, "The Final Experiment", was released in 1998 and marked the beginning of a unique musical journey that has seen the participation of numerous guest artists from all over the world. Among Ayreon's most representative songs are "The Day the World Stops Turning" and "Starseed", both taken from the album "Universal Migrator Part 1: The Journey". Other important albums include "01011001", "The Theory of Everything" and "Transitus", which have consolidated Ayreon's position as an innovative and critically acclaimed musical project.
