Lyrics for Ayreon's Fate

Misguided Merlin, You fail to understand, I could never be your rival. I was just a pawn, In a future masterplan, For the purpose of survival! Ayreon! I've cast my spell upon you! I have no faith, you cannot be true! Ayreon! I forgive you, Merlin, For you don't know what you've done, Even for you, it was all a mystery. One day you'll see, That I was the one, Who could change the course of history! Ayreon! Your words are all in vain! Close your eyes, there'll be no more pain! Oh Ayreon... Mmm! I see one day, His story will be told, At the end of the 20th century, ohhhh! I see one day, The truth will unfold! Ohhh! And the quest has now begun! Oh, Ayreon! I hope one day, That man will understand, It's in his power to change his destiny! I hope one day, He'll do all that he can! Ohhh! And all the nations will be one! Oh Ayreon! Yeah! Now the end has just begun! And words become a song! Tell me what you feel! The seas are red, the skies are grim... Listen to the waves... The outcome of 'The Final Experiment' has Now been placed in your hands... (Clock ticking)
