Avantasia, Michael Kiske - Wastelands

A moment of glory The blink of an eye and it's all gone You hide in confinement Dark is the cell that you call home We pretend to be blind Every time it hurts to see You - you close your eyes To blink the night away At ease in the wastelands You - you're dead and blind You sanctify the way Blindfold in the wastelands Don't tell me in pain The end doesn't justify the means Spado, ascetic It's easy to sermonize in jealousy Now I'm off to life I'm changing sides Your final goodbye You - you close your eyes To blink the tears away Love hurts in the wastelands You - you're old and blind You sacrifice it all Lost in the wastelands You - you close your eyes To blink the night away At ease in the wastelands You - you're dead and blind You sanctify the way Blindfold in the wastelands
