lyrics

As I ride the road to Eschaton on a horse of pale white
I pass a manic masquerade chasing shadows in the night
Their stage is lit by lightning bolts as thunder sounds applause
Through gritted teeth they all repeat "The effect proceeds the cause"

I see sycophants and demagogues dance around a fire
As an eagle's claw and a Lion's mane burns upon the pyre
Hordes of toothless minions bury microscopes and books
and hang a blood-soaked golden fleece upon a butcher's hooks

Don't be fooled by what you see
This dream of life is just a fantasy
Inside your mind you might just find the key
To open up the doors of mystery

As the mists of time begin to clear my focus comes to view
The zenith of a diamond arch bathed in emerald hues
The Zero Point, it burns so bright I have to shield my eyes
And all that stands before me now begins to synchronize

Now the air becomes electrified, it crackles and it hums
As angels play God's abacus to solve eternal sums
They chant "Deo Volente" in a million different tongues
And climb a cosmic ladder built on never-ending rungs

Don't be fooled by what you see
This dream of life is just a fantasy
Inside your mind you might just find the key
To open up the doors of mystery

Don't be fooled by what you see
This dream of life is just a fantasy
Inside your mind you might just find the key
To open up the doors of mystery
