Ayreon - Tower Of Hope Lyrics

Forever of the Stars:
From the wind-torn ramparts of the Tower of Hope, we survey a
thousand futures. Release your dreams from this electric pinnacle.
You must have hope... You must have hope...
You must have hope... You must have hope....

HIPPIE:
We're climbing up the stairs
And hope is flowing through our veins
(We're climbing up the stairs
And hope is flowing through our veins)

FUTUREMAN:
There's magic everywhere
We've been released of all our chains
(There's magic everywhere
We've been released of all our chains)

HIPPIE:
We're taking in the view
Oceans of blue, fields of green
(We're taking in the view
Oceans of blue, fields of green)

FUTUREMAN:
I fear this can't be true
We're still inside this dream machine

HIPPIE: I only felt what I wanted to feel...
FUTUREMAN: I only saw what I wanted to see...
HIPPIE: I'm at the end of my rope...
BOTH: Lost in the Tower of Hope...

HIPPIE:
I see a brand new age
Where peace and harmony prevail
(I see a brand new age
Where peace and harmony prevail)

FUTUREMAN:
But we're still in this cage
Destined to die here if we fail

HIPPIE: I only felt what I wanted to feel...
FUTUREMAN: I only saw what I wanted to see...
HIPPIE: I'm at the end of my rope...
BOTH: Lost in the Tower of Hope...

HIPPIE:
I see a brand new age
Where peace and harmony prevail
(We're climbing up the stairs
And hope is flowing through our veins)

FUTUREMAN:
But we're still in this cage
Destined to die here if we fail

HIPPIE: I only felt what I wanted to feel...
FUTUREMAN: I only saw what I wanted to see...
HIPPIE: I only went where I wanted to go...
FUTUREMAN: I only knew what I wanted to know...
BOTH: And we became who we wanted to be...
HIPPIE: I only felt what I wanted to feel...
FUTUREMAN: I only saw what I wanted to see...
HIPPIE: I'm at the end of my rope...
BOTH: Lost in the tower of hope...
