Songtexte Amazing Flight (Live) - Ayreon

Now listen well and understand
The import of this game I've planned
We are the forever
The stewardship of the universe is in our care
Wisdom and passion we nurture everywhere
Of these humans you're about to see
Who best embodies these qualities?
The first five humans have had their say
And now two more will join the fray
Watch the barbarian, he's so uptight
And the hippie, out of sight
Enter, dear mortals, into the light
Be brave

I'm looking 'round bewildered
Is this some dark and evil jest?
What brought me to this cursed keep?
Perchance some crazy quest
God forbid, I am no coward
Pitted against monster, man, or ghost
I wield my blade with crimson gusto
For I'm a proud barbarian host

Hey dude, you're so uncool
But hey, that's alright
Like there's no need to get uptight
My eyes reflect the stars
And the smile lights up my face
We're on an amazing flight in space

I shook city walls and towers
Wreaking havoc in the streets
Burned palaces of cowardly kings
Not a one stood up to me, fools
I unburied banners and brazen sky
Branded battle axe and broadsword
Let drums of glory sound like thunder
Hail barbarian warlord

Hey dude, you're so uncool
But hey, that's alright
Like there's no need to get uptight
My eyes reflect the stars
And the smile lights up my face
We're on an amazing flight in space

I rode my black stallion
With grim determination
Found a modern kingdom
Where I chose to settle down
Righteous man would hang me
But I didn't have a brain
'Cause nothing is as dangerous
As a barbarian brain
