Into the Electric Castle

[Fish, Highlander]
 what heathen place is this that I've arrived in
 is now the time I pay for all my sins
 I can't believe that this is God's creation
 this realm was fashioned by the Deil's ane hand


 [Sharon den Adel, Indian (chorus)]
 no it has been foretold, in our legends of old
 wake the spirit within, let the journey begin


 [Fish, Highlander]
 this quest you speak of is for redemption
 how can we travel when our souls are lost
 you think we find ourselves at gates of new salvation
 when I can only sense the end is here


 [Sharon den Adel, Indian (chorus)]
 no it has been foretold, in our legends of old
 wake the spirit within, let the journey begin


 [Damian Wilson, Knight]
 we're at the gates of Avalon, the island of spirits,
 we're at the gates of Avalon, in search of the grail


 [Edwin Balogh, Roman]
 there's no way out, slaves for eternity
 down in the underworld, the jaws of Orcus
 I call on Jupiter, the ruler of the gods
 show us the way, from damnation to salvation


 [Anneke van Giersbergen, Egyptian (chorus)]
 the fields of Yaaru lie waiting for us all
 rejoice! the judges have ruled
 we have been chosen to enter the great hall
 of Isis and Osiris


 [Edwin Balogh, Roman]
 no you're wrong, we're trapped here in darkness
 among departed souls, and mislaid spirits
 I call on Mars, the ancient god of war
 grant me the power, to free me from this evil


 [Anneke van Giersbergen, Egyptian (chorus)]
 the fields of Yaaru lie waiting for us all
 rejoice! the judges have ruled
 we have been chosen to enter the great hall
 of Isis and Osiris


 [Fish, Highlander]
 can you see the stars? can you recognize the constellations?
 if I could only see the hills that we're supposed to climb
 even the sunlight...it doesn't
 warm...doesn't warm
 how are we gonna find our way?
 if we can't recognize the stars, if we can't recognize the constellations
 where do we go?




 the quest you speak of, it isn't bound for glory
 no grail exists within this heathen land
 you think we find ourselves at gates of new salvation
 when I can only sense...the end is near
