A spectre looms; The back of my mind A plateau ablaze A spark ignites the fuse of change Fingers unite as worlds collide [Chorus] Nations will embrace a power A power hidden inside our veins Cities awake from their slumber Starlight will shine from our eyes And in a wish And in a vision Spirits from the ether The ball and chain; a distant memory Signals pierce a vapour sky Black luster screaming through the clouds To drain the seas, and open the path A lifetime in a moment Turns the ground to gla** I soar, breathing in stardust A galaxy of stone I tear the Earth in two A lifetime in a moment A universe away This journey means nothing without you Burning impatience No heart to call my own My pa**ion sleeps silently An odyssey for the living I know I'll wake up dead This journey means nothing without you [Chorus] A lifetime in a moment A universe away This journey means nothing without you
