Avantasia - Wastelands

Lyrics:

[Verse 1: Michael]
A moment of glory
The blink of an eye and it's all gone
You hide in confinement
Dark is the cell that you call home

[Pre-Chorus: Michael]
We pretend to be blind
Everytime it hurts to see

[Chorus: Michael]
You - you close your eyes
To blink the night away
At ease in the wastelands
You - you're dead and blind
You sanctify the way
Blindfold in the wastelands

[Verse 2: Tobias]
Don't tell me in pain
The end doesn't justify the means
Spado, ascetic
It's easy to sermonize in jealousy

[Pre-Chorus: Tobias]
Now I'm off to life
I'm changing sides
Your final goodbye

[Chorus: Tobias]
You - you close your eyes
To blink the tears away
Love hurts in the wastelands
You - you're old and blind
You sacrifice it all
Lost in the wastelands

[Chorus: Michael]
You - you close your eyes
To blink the night away...
