The Apparition Lyrics - Fates Warning

When the stars are right, and you're alone 

Take a journey, lock the world tight 

Out of your mind 

The hall beckons your presence, the doors 

Open wide you're to decide to turn back. 

Deep the bowels of this black abyss 

Compelled I just can't resist it, take me 

[Chorus:] 

Take me away take me away 

I want to know what's deep within 

Take me away 

Drawing near someone passes through me 

A silent entity never looking back I won't dare 

Evil eyes staring through the walls of stone 

As I feared I travel not alone 

Laughter echoes with the blatant wind 

I have passed the threshold deep within me 

[Repeat Chorus] 

A voice of thunder said turn back 

Tabernacle is forbidden 

No mortal dares to enter here 

I want to know 

Flame is burning, center of a fountain yearning, water 

Spring eternal, spiritual water physical fire 

Above center is sky, cold cold neverness 

Just vastness filled with stars upon stars 

In the four corners of life are the golden mirrors 

Reflecting what you are and what you are to be 

In the first is a young boy white dove in 

His hand, in the second is a warrior in armor, 

In the third is the old man, gold watch 

In his hand, fourth and last 

No reflection at all 

No reflection at all 

No reflection at all 

Waters rise towards physical fire, voice says 

Tabernacle is forbidden never looking back, I won't dare 

If the water touches the flame 

Forever in darkness yes I'll remain 

White dove flies from the young boys hand 

Through the mirror of the old man, only way out 

[Repeat Chorus]
