Текст песни Avantasia, Geoff Tate - Here Be Dragons
See them talk insistantly
You don’t get a word while you pretend
Keep your stance despairingly
And lock your world away
Hide away
Oh yeah
Hide away
Come with me
Come with me, oh
A carol from the edge of the world resounds
Don’t be ashamed now as it carries your name
In the streets of indifference they’re asleep anyway
There be dragons
There be magic
There be shadow, there be rain
A glimmer in the veil of haze
It calls you down the rabbit hole
Step in from Amusia Town
For how long have they been abusing you
You will not believe your eyes
Marvel at the other side
Hideaway ‘neath an illusion
You believe, you’re deceived
Till your eyes will agree
Here be dragons
Hideaway - poise in confusion
What a night, what a show
What a diablerie
Here be dragons
Now you feel like a soul in a plaything
A hoop in the street beneath a dowel to beat
And you ain’t got no choice
Cause you know you ain’t free
I know what it’s like cause you’re just like me
Looking around: isolation!
Not a woman, not a man
Just the scorn of town again
Tried to face the sun just like everyone
You shared your dreams and promises
Come right through the door
For you’ll pine no more aimlessly
Running from the devil you’ve been taught to know
We reach out through your mind
Await you inside
Hideaway
Delve into dreams unknown
Make yourself at home
There’ll be dragons
You won’t be alone
Hideaway
Where the wild rose will turn its bloom
To the light of the moon
(There’ll) be unheard-of-wonder
A spell on you
Here be dragons
Be astoundment and wonder
It’s a world over yonder
Here be not known
Here be souls that abide you
Here be tender just like you, oh
Here be dragons
Here be magic
Here be just you and I
There’ll be confusion
When astounding illusion
And the straight old world pother
Flow into one another
In the Moonflower Garden
You see logic unpardoned
Here you are freak
Dare it! To be!
The crazy and lonely
And you’re turning the key
You’ve been tucking away
When they told you to hand
Everything to allay your dreams
Your longing on your way
She felt that she is just a boy like others
Nestled in a cozy small town life
Kept it up until she’d leave for good
When she ceased to try
You could never really see his burden
Who would tell just by an off-beat stance
You would ask, but you’d await that moment
And missed the final chance
He’d meander down an old town pavement
On a lonely bleak October night
Why would anybody pour their poison
Without keen insight
She saw the world through eyes of innocent simplicity
A pristine soul dragged in a dark world play
Thereafter never spoke a word no more
But eyes revealed why she’d float away
Here be a world you hold inside
Here be rebirth, here be unwind
Here be unknown, or likes of you
Here be the wharf, the ship of fools
Afraid you might wake up there
Enstranged, out of your mind
And you won’t even know what’s left behind
Hideaway ‘neath an illusion
You believe, you’re deceived
Till your eyes will agree:
Here be dragons
Hideaway, gape in confusion
What a night, what a show, what a diablerie
Here be dragons
Hideaway ‘neath an illusion
You believe, you’re deceived
Till your eyes will agree:
Here be dragons
Hideaway, gape in confusion
What a night, what a show, what a diablerie
Here be dragons
Here be dragons
