Speedhoven Lyrics - Tinnitus Sanctus - Edguy

Welcome to this wonderworld 

Everybody take your sledges 

Winterland Plutocracy 

Down the slope don't fear the hedges 

Everybody in their box 

Waiting under rights of action 

Raise your heads and hold your breath 

I can't stand your putrefaction 

I can smell your brain decay 

As you look down at the stage and 

Drive me mad and then insane 

Welcome to the show 

You've been waiting for the one 

To bring you joy and ecstasy 

And you've been waiting for a song 

And you demand to feel the tragedy 

But when it's right out of control 

And it's not your song anymore 

And you are ready to forget 

The truth that you'd been asking for 

I'm not afraid to sacrifice 

And I don't care bout your advice 

As I spread my wings and fly 

No love - it's pain you've come to feed 

In mental strain I crawl and bleed 

You make me please 

Forever roaming 

You will hear it scream 

The cries of Speedhoven 

Forever roaming 

Every starless night 

You will hear the cries 

You'll never get: 

I'll never be the one that you want me to be 

And all the treasures that you hold 

All your diamond rings and gold 

All your flake and look and tongue 

I have tried and it was wrong 

You tried to push me up a notch 

But all I made was an itchy crotch 

Fornication, ass galore 

I wanted love and I want more 

Muckrakers waiting for the prey 

Muckrakers want me to obey 

But you will never own me 

Though you pay 

This opera is haunted they will say 

That's where they've driven the light insane 

Forever roaming 

You will hear it scream 

The cries of Speedhoven 

Forever roaming 

Every starless night 

You will hear the cries 

Forever roaming 

You will hear it scream 

The cries of Speedhoven 

Forever you'll hear it scream 

In a cold winter night I had a vision 

Taking me by my hand 

Leading me to the door 

To rescue me from the wastelands 

The glance of the shining ivories 

A world that they can't understand 

Out of sound, out of reason 

The voice of their laughter was gone 

Taken away, time for a change 

I'm walking over 

Flying away, flying away 

Dying into another world 

Pure and divine 

And the laughter dies 

Welcome to this wonderworld 

Everybody take your sledges 

Winterland Plutocracy 

Down the slope don't fear the hedges 

Forever roaming 

You will hear it scream 

The cries of Speedhoven 

Forever roaming...
