AVANTASIA lyrics : "Black Orchid"

I never wanted guidance to tell me where to find
A light in the darkness, cause the dark I'd push aside
No time for dreaming of a distant Paradise

No time for tales of good and evil

Another correlation: as above so below

Another !@#^ysing where illusions fail to show
the face of the maker who'd leave you alone
without a sense of comprehension


When that meadow - in front of my eyes - will have dried away
Will my senses wither like flowers on my grave

Will this wafe of becoming flow into the void of time

The final hour: When Never and Now become one

Will I find the orchid
The final hour: Door to the garth of eternity?
Or withered orchid meadows?


Everybody's praying
But what if God is just a threat and everybody's straying?

If only they would just forget
everybody's craving for a ghost light in the haze:
You'll lose your minds one after another


Everybody's craving for what doesn't have a name or a face
So reason could fit it in the daze

Till I awake to the sound of rigour

What if that meadow in your mind is just a fantasy?

And if it wanted to be seen why must you believe?




Will this wave of becoming flow into the void of time
The final hour: When Never and Now become one


Will I find the orchid


The final hour: Door to the garth of eternity

Or withered orchid meadows

Black orchid - Strange and beautiful
Oh black orchid I must find you


I remember that morning
He had to be told what he couldn't remember
After he'd spoken to the wall


And I gave to repression what I must not have seen
What even believers must unlearn to unbelieve


The final hour: When Never and Now become one
Will I find the orchid

The final hour: Door to the garth of eternity

Or withered orchids

The final hour: When Never and Now become one

Will I find the orchid


The final hour: Door to the garth of eternity


Or withered black orchid meadows
