Lyrics

[Music & lyrics: tobias sammet]

"I've heard voices in my dream
Made me stand up, helped me see. aaah... oohhh..
Visions called him to awake his mind
To find his horizon
And find out what may be behind

[Vision:]</i> "take what you need
You can find in the back of your soul!
Wake up the king in yourself
To be mighty and bold!"

Seasons of doubt
Fear and silent desires of life have gone by
Visions have called back my longing
For freedom tonight. made me sigh..
Wasting my life till the day
That the voice has appeared... made me see:
I am the one that can make it
Through times of despair; I am free!"

They built up a symbol of warning
To give me fear
To keep me away from paradise
Although it's so near
Expecting I don't take a look
At what is behind: freedom calling..

Take a look at the open gate!
Walk on and don't be afraid!
Free your mind in what they call
It's the heart of temptation!

...Oh... go the way!

Take a look at the open gate!
Walk on and don't be afraid!
Free your mind in what they call
It's the heart of temptation!

Night after night
I remembered the word of the priest:
"Thou shalt not! never give in to the promises made by the beast
So help me god!
Never give in to temptation or you'll burn in hell a long, long time!
Forever-eternal-salvation is
What I can sell if you stay blind!!!"

But I wanna know what lies behind the gate of their hell
And I won't believe all the stories that
They always tell. I got the mind to find out what is right and what's wrong
Freedom calling..

Queen of mine I long for you
Tell me why to wait to find our joy!
It's your wait for heaven's door
Your fear that makes them grow
And let you forget today

I'll never go and I'll stay on your side
They'll never know what I give to you
Is a piece of paradise

Heaven can wait! now I'm living!
Heaven can wait forevermore
Heaven can wait!
I am to live like I want to also before I'll die
Heaven can wait! you can't thrill me!
Heaven can wait, we dance till we die!
Heaven can wait! welcome to the
Theater of salvation

"Hallelujah, hallelujah!"
I hear the man in black, his
"Hallelujah, hallelujah!"
He tries to keep me back. no!
"Hallelujah, hallelujah!"
Lock up the gates to wisdom
Hallelujah, hallelujah..
Too late! I've found the kingdom..

Hallelujah, hallelujah!
I see a band of angels
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Freedom calling..
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
I do not fear the stories
Hallelujah, hallelujah!
Freedom calling me..

Don't you see it? don't you feel it?
Freedom calling..

(...And the vision finally added: "go and find the answers in yourself;
And always remember: 'you're already living.'
Don't let them scare you on your quest for answers and for salvation -
For real salvation...)
