Lyrics[]
I came from far beyond your reality
The ocean of time it is the odyssey of mine
I am the narrator
And now I'll tell you where I've been
And what I saw, and how it ends
Welcome to the wasteland
In a world which is turning faster
Where I'm alone for a while
It's turning faster
Away from light straight to the dark
The march of time it has begun
I'm caught in an ancient dream so bright
And then the march of time begins
The man in black he waits behind this last task
It's full of pain to sacrifice the only son
The legions of the lost wait in the old mine
They try to stop me, the battle it has begun
So I'm not afraid to walk down to the wasteland
I'm so alone on my way
And I don't fear that dusty godforsaken path
Somewhere far beyond
Somewhere far beyond
The march of time it has begun
Somewhere far beyond your reality
And then the march of time begins
Look at my soul and behind
There are some things I've to hide from you
I'm following the black man, I'm losing control
And I don't care what's happening to the boy
Welcome to the new world
One more step to the dark tower
And my whole body's in flames
I'm looking for those healing things to be prepared
The march of time it has begun
I'm caught in a prisoner's dirty life
And then the march of time begins
The prisoner did bring the healing spell
The queen of shadows found herself in pain
And death brings answers to us all
What will I find when the dark tower appears
Will it be the end, or just a new quest after all
I am the narrator
And now I'll tell you where I've been
And what I saw, and how it ends
Somewhere far beyond
The march of time it has begun
Somewhere far beyond your reality
And then the march of time
Somewhere far beyond
The march of time it has begun
Somewhere far beyond your reality
And then the march of time begins
Look around and see
The world is turning fast
Faster day by day
Somewhere far beyond
I'll try to change it if I can
Somewhere far beyond
There's only one chance and it lies
Somewhere far beyond
Somewhere, somewhere far beyond
Somewhere far beyond
The march of time it has begun
The march of time it has begun
