[00:00.00]Black Orchid - Avantasia
[00:43.70]I never wanted guidance
[00:46.25]
[00:47.16]To tell me where to find
[00:49.27]A light in the darkness
[00:51.91]
[00:52.50]'Cause the dark I'd push aside
[00:54.99]No time for dreaming of a distant Paradise
[01:01.54]No time for tales of good and evil
[01:05.12]
[01:05.94]Another correlation as above so below
[01:11.40]Another analysing where illusions fail to show
[01:16.90]The face of the maker who'd leave you alone
[01:23.05]
[01:23.60]Without a sense of comprehension
[01:28.15]
[01:29.54]When that meadow in front of my eyes will have dried away
[01:34.87]
[01:37.63]Will my senses wither like flowers on my grave
[01:43.73]
[01:44.38]Will this wave of becoming flow into the void of time
[01:55.58]
[01:56.70]The final hour
[01:58.77]When Never and Now become one
[02:02.60]
[02:03.26]Will I find the orchid
[02:07.04]
[02:07.72]The final hour
[02:09.98]Door to the garth of eternity
[02:15.38]Or withered orchid meadows
[02:18.79]
[02:42.68]Everybody's praying
[02:44.73]
[02:45.34]But what if God is just a threat
[02:47.41]
[02:47.94]And everybody's straying
[02:51.14]If only they would just forget
[02:53.58]Everybody's craving
[02:56.06]
[02:56.59]For a ghost light in the haze
[03:00.06]You'll lose your minds one after another
[03:04.66]Everybody's craving
[03:06.50]
[03:07.40]For what doesn't have a name or a face
[03:10.69]So reason could fit it in the frame
[03:16.07]
[03:16.60]In quest of the orchid
[03:18.88]A glimmer in the daze
[03:21.42]
[03:22.18]Till I awake to the sound of rigour
[03:25.98]
[03:27.84]What if that meadow in your mind is just a fantasy
[03:34.05]
[03:36.02]And if it wanted to be seen why must you believe
[03:43.05]Will this wave of becoming flow into the void of time
[03:55.27]The final hour
[03:57.36]When Never and Now become one
[04:01.20]
[04:01.81]Will I find the orchid
[04:05.80]
[04:06.44]The final hour
[04:08.75]Door to the garth of eternity
[04:13.35]
[04:13.94]Or withered orchid meadows
[04:18.80]
[04:22.87]Black orchid
[04:27.59]
[04:28.44]Strange and beautiful
[04:33.97]
[04:34.70]Oh black orchid I must find you
[04:41.60]I remember that morning
[04:44.22]He had to be told
[04:46.33]
[04:47.00]What he couldn't remember
[04:49.80]What he'd spoken to the wall
[04:52.45]And I gave to repression
[04:55.15]What I must not have seen
[04:57.98]What even believers
[05:00.49]Must unlearn to unbelieve
[05:03.51]
[05:51.24]The final hour
[05:53.26]When Never and Now become one
[05:57.04]
[05:57.76]Will I find the orchid
[06:01.53]
[06:02.25]The final hour
[06:03.91]
[06:04.54]Door to the garth of eternity
[06:09.23]
[06:09.88]Or withered orchids
[06:12.50]
[06:13.17]The final hour
[06:15.36]When Never and Now become one
[06:19.20]
[06:19.79]Will I find the orchid
[06:23.63]
[06:24.26]The final hour
[06:25.98]
[06:26.66]Door to the garth of eternity
[06:31.90]Or withered orchid meadows
