The Truth Is In Here - Ayreon

Arjen:

Last night I had that dream again

My world was black as night

plagued by visions of a future world

Liselotte: Mr L. did you take your meds?

Arjen:

I sang about these dreams

warning man of his demise

wasted words that no one heard

Liselotte: won’t you please relax

I’ll make your bed…

Arjen:

Today I had that dream again

I roamed among the stars

on the wings of an amazing flight

Liselotte: Mr L, do we feel okay?

Arjen:

To a place beyond our time

where the sunlight doesn’t warm

and the colour bleeds into the night

Liselotte: We may have to increase your dose today…

Arjen: I know the truth is out there

If you want to see

I know the truth is in here

If you want to feel

Arjen:

Now I have that dream again

I live beneath the waves

in a realm of grace and majesty

Liselotte: Mr L, can I ease your mind?

Arjen:

In the distance shadows loom

cold machines rise from the deep

in a world once proud and free

Liselotte: Won’t you free your thoughts,

Let it all unwind…

Arjen:

I hate to have that dream again,

they live inside my head

feeling everything I feel inside

Liselotte: Mr L, can you please be still?

Arjen:

They speak to me in dreams

They can see all I can see

They have always been my guide

Liselotte: You gotta hush now please,

have another pill!

Arjen: I know the truth is out there

Liselotte: Why should we believe you?

Arjen: If you want to see

I know the truth is in here

Liselotte: Why should we deceive you?

Arjen: If you want to feel.
