Ayreon - Castle Hall (live, Acoustic) Lyrics
At last! you enter the Electric Castle! Here in this vast hall where even shadows fear thelight - here you must confront your past. If you have killed, beware of the Gathering of Spiritsfor they do fish for men. Here, the disembodied Astral World becomes flesh once more. I pity themen of swords.For here blood runs cold...[barbarian]cries from the grave resound in my earsthey hail from beyond my darkest fearsfaces of the past are etched in my brainthe women I raped, the men I've slainshades of the dead are sliding on the walldemons dance in the castle hall[knight]I call upon the sword, the mighty Excaliburgrant me the skill to fulfill my questI call upon my king and the knights of the table roundgrant me the courage to stand to this testI call upon the seer, Merlin the sorcerergrant me the magic to end my painI call upon the spirit that lives in a noble heartgrant me the passion that's within my veinsshades of the dead are sliding on the walldemons dance in the castle hall[repeat hall]
