Текст (слова) песни: Ayreon - The Two Gates

And so its come to this. Two Gates - two portals await. Let your choice be
guided by collective wisdom. Ah, hath the prospect of freedom ever tasted so
good? One gate completes the circle; one step away from your own dimension,
your cherished time. One gate severs all connections: one step away from the
dreamworld of everlasting ebony. You call it oblivion. It is a brave soul
who makes the first choice.

BARBARIAN:
Behold these gates, the first one plain and old
behold these gates, the second forged of gold
the gate of old spells out disgrace and shame
the one of gold cries out my noble name

I challenge death to meet me at this gate
I challenge Odin to pronounce my fate
and if I thrive Ive overcome this land
but if I fail Ill die a worthy man

ROMAN:
Open the gate, were now on our own

ALL:
Enter the gate to your destiny

ROMAN:
Will it be fortune or fate, the truth shall be known

ALL:
Enter the gate to your destiny

BARBARIAN:
Cowards whine beyond the olden gate
Valhalla shines beyond the golden gate
I walk alone so dare not follow me
but choose your own and die in agony

KNIGHT:
We have been saved, our journey has ended
but tell us why, why this ordeal?
what was your aim, or was it just some game
have we been humbled, or did we prevail?

Weve been enslaved, our wounds have not mended
and who are you, what magicians or gods?
what was your plan, we dont understand
did we pass, or did we fail?
