Erg voor de hand liggend is natuurlijk "The Truth is in Here" van Ayreon zijn nieuwste CD.
Last night I had that dream again
My world was black as night
Plagued by visions of a future world
Mr L, did you take your meds?
I sang about these dreams
Warning man of his demise
Wasted words that no one heard
Won't you please relax? I'll make your bed
Today I had that dream again
I roamed among the stars
On the wings of an amazing flight
Mr L, do you feel OK?
To a place beyond our time
Where the sunlight doesn't warm
And colour bleeds into the night
We may have to increase your dose today
I know the truth is out there
Didn't you want to see?
I know the truth is in here
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to flee
Now I have that dream again
I live beneath the waves
In a ground of grace and majesty
Mr L can I ease your mind
In the distant shadows loom
Cold machines rise from the deep
In a world once proud and free
Would you free your thoughts, let it all abide
I hate to have that dream again
They live inside my head
Feeling everything I feel inside
Mr L can you please be still?
They speak to me in dreams
They can see all I can see
They have always been my guide
Gotta hush now, please have another pill
I know the truth is out there
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to see
I know the truth is here
Why should we deceive you?
Didn't you want to feel?
We are all alone
There's no one there
You don't have to be afraid
Can't you see through this masquerade?
We are all alone
We are all clones
There's no one there
I am so scared
You don't have to be afraid
Last night I had that dream again
My world was black as night
Plagued by visions of a future world
Mr L, would you take your rest?
They speak to me in dreams
They could see all I can see
They have always been my guide
Won't you please relax? I'll make your bed
I know the truth is out there
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to see
Why should we deceive you?
I know the truth is in here
Why should we believe you?
Didn't you want to feel?
Eerste wat mij nu te binnen schiet is Evergrey - Different Worlds
The silence awakes me
My heartbeat would so easily reveal me
Who am I
what is left
is it my mind
That constantly deceives me
I am beginning to doubt me
If what I feel and see is real
It seems as if I exist in different worlds
There is one in darkness
One is loss of time
One of self-doubt and one of hurt
All my pride has left me
My value as a human has been extinguished
My close ones' those who love
Disbelieve me won't believe me
So I got no-one to confide in
And what worse is
I'm beginning to accept this
My body's become my prison
My keepers are what you would call...
Fiction
I am beginning to doubt me
If what I feel and see is real
It seems as if i exist in different worlds
There is one in darkness
One is loss of time
One of self-doubt and one of hurt
Autumn ~ The Witch In Me
Dans le foret, si noir que la nuit peut devenir, respirer
In the forest, so black that you inhale the night
Echo transmitted tales of an ancient might
Standing in the circle, surrounded by candlelight
Listening while I'm blindfolded, naked and tied
Praise the seasons, praise the night
Witches teach me how to see
This initiation enlarged my sight
I now found the witch in me
Through the lucid eyes of witches you'll see
The things that man can't see anymore
The origin of life still lives in every tree
That in the witchcraft lies the source of all the lore
Praise the seasons, praise the night
Witches teach me how to see
This initiation enlarged my sight
I now found the witch in me
The salty lips, the fivefold kiss
On my whole body there's no spot they miss
These words, a vow of secrecy
A flagellation, forty times, sealing this
Receive the atheme, its effects will make me rich
Because the seeds of fertility I now sow
I stand the invocation of witch
For complete wisdom there are two more to go
Praise the seasons, praise the night
Witches teach me how to see
This initiation enlarged my sight
I now found the witch in me
Autumn ~ The Coven (The Witch In Me Part II).
The grating noise of horned owl emphasises the dark
My only beacon in oblivion
Now when I'm one with this mystic web
Wherein dimensions bled to one
The fivefold kiss again
The lips that seal the vow
The feeling, that feeling
Here I stand
Where the witches sing their hymns
Full of tangled allegory
The atheme
One of the tools of art
Which reveals the lore
The ancient craft
That hides in my heart
Acknowledged and exposed
The pain
Of the two initiations
Already made sense
It illustrates our goal
To create a new world
With my bare hands
Awake, lord of the watchtower-North
Earth is rising for thee
Euros, lord of the east
enlighten the sky for me
Awake, lord of the watchtower-South
Incense the fire I see
Sephyros, lord of the watchtower-West
Complete the other three
I haul down the moon, while my being fades away
And the ancestress of the gods descends in me
Euphoria and full sense are here to stay
Skyclad in the night, wrapped in air
Equal and power absorbing
Atheme, fruit and wine
Thoughts and bodies we share.
Gospels in dusk
Echoes of hymns whispering tunes
drifting trough the night
Hmmmm...ik duik m'n MP3 archieven in; ik heb veel nummers die me hier aan doen denken, maar The witch in me is duidelijk degene die me er het meeste aan doet denken.
There is no peace in heaven
There is no peace on earth
There is no love in heaven
There is no love on earth
There is no faith in heaven
There is no faith on earth
There is no hope in heaven
There is no hope on earth
So you go round and round
another live another wound
from death to birth, from birth to death
No time to waste, no time to rest
So you go round and round
another live another wound
and when you finally touch the light
they send you back into the night
There are no friends in heaven,
there are no friends on earth
There are no saints in heaven,
there are no saints on earth
There are no ghosts in heaven,
there are no ghosts on earth
There are no gods in heaven,
there are no gods on earth
Reincarnation, the torture will not end
Reincarnation, our bloody fate...
Reincarnation, the torture will not end
Reincarnation, our bloody fate...
So you go round and round...
Reincarnation...
There is no peace in heaven...
So you go round and round...
Reincarnation...

(Vraagje tussendoor: is de nieuwe zangeres van Autumn een beetje goed? Ik heb ze een kleine 30 keer live gezien met Nienke, maar nog niet met die nieuwe.)

![Agalloch - In the Shadow of Our Pale Companion [2 of 2]](https://img.youtube.com/vi/aP-_dbT-9Dg/2.jpg)
Through vast valleys I wonder
To the highest peaks
On pathways through a wild forgotten landscape
In search of God, in spite of man
'til the lost forsaken endless. . .
This is where I choose to tread
Fall. . .so shall we fall into the nihil?
The nothingness that we feel in the arms of the pale
In the shadow of the grim companion who walks with us
Here is the landscape
Here is the sun
Here in the balance of the earth
Where is the god?
Has he fallen and abandoned us?
As I'm stalked by the shadow of death's hand
The fire in my heart is forged across the land
Here at the edge of this world
Here I gaze at a pantheon of oak, a citadel of stone
If this grand panorama before me is what you call God. . .
Then God is not dead
I walked down to a river and sat in reflection of what had to be done
An offering of crimson flowed into the water below
A wound of spirit from which it floated and faded away
. . .like every hope I've ever had. . .
. . .like every dream I've ever known. . .
It washed away in a tide of longing, a longing for a better world
From my will, my throat, to the river, and into the sea. . .
. . .wash away. . .
. . .fade away. . .
Here is the landscape
Here is the sun
Here at the edge of the earth
Where is the god?
Has he fallen to ruin?
As I'm stalked by the shadow of death's hand
My heathen pride is scarred across the land
