The Banishment
A. A new dawn
a perceptable tension is hovering above
Ayreon's hometown.
something is at hand.
B. The gathering
the townspeople gather on the market square
to judge of Ayreon.
is he a prophet or a charlatan,
or even worse: an apparition most unholy?
C. The accusation
the villagers accuse Ayreon of being the devil's spawn,
but Ayreon persists in his innocence.
VILLAGERS:
have you seen his eyes
up in the skies
like hypnotized
and he never smiles
he never cries
have you heard his song
fierce and strong
right or wrong
should he be condemned
for he doesn't belong
AYREON:
what have I done
VILLAGERS:
you've aroused the forces of destruction
AYREON:
what have I done
VILLAGERS:
you've unleashed the rage of the gods
AYREON:
what have I done
VILLAGERS:
you've denounced the wonder of creation
AYREON:
what have I done
VILLAGERS:
you've betrayed your own,
now you have to pay
it has been foretold
in days of old
'n evil soul
will corrupt the world
to achieve his goal
he's the devil's seed
an evil breed
he's gonna make you bleed
he'll take all he needs
with uncontrolable greed
AYREON:
I've done nothing at all,
no nothing at all
D. The banishment
with sticks and torches in hand,
the angry villagers drive Ayreon
out of their demesne.
E. Oblivion
completely exhausted Ayreon roams through the forest,
only an indistinct sense of accomplishment sustains him.
AYREON:
if I have died, then this must be hell
if I'm alive, I cannot break
this gruesome spell
I am seeking relief and finding none
I have fallen into oblivion
a force within dominates my tormented soul
and empowers me to regain absolute control
I shall not yield, for I am the chosen one
who shall rise from oblivion
good fate has guided Ayreon to Camelot,
king Arthur's castle,
where he is welcomed as a worthy minstrel.
