Lyrics:
Goodbye
Your pocket full of dreams
Your mind in a daze
Keep on chasing rainbows
Fly high
Leave the past behind
The dark road you take bears no escape

In a world of grand illusions
Where love is just a dream
You gotta make your sacrifices
Time to pick your poison

The fool is he who is noble minded
And bellies up to poverty
He's not a king in the world of diamonds
Paling into oblivion

I lay down my soul for glory
I've given a life away
Don't know if I am sorry
Blind me, blind me

Don't know where I'll be going
I gotta get away
From the pain of recollection
Drawn into the faint

Hang on to a runaway train
No turning back
Tethered to a runaway train
Take me away
Torpid in the wind and rain
No turning back
Hang on to a runaway train
Take me away

If I'm a stranger to myself
Then I better gotta stay away
Even better gotta get away, get away
Time to pick my poison

Feel the devil sitting in my neck
Straight ahead into the unknown
Oh father I forgive you for I
Don't know what I'm doing

It's only human nature
To keep away from pain
Take a train to ecstasy oh
Ride on, ride on

Inhale the scent of heaven
Respire the smell of fame
You've been to hell and back
You can't change things anyway, no

I hang on to a runaway train
No turning back
Tethered to a runaway train
Take me away
Torpid in the wind and rain
No turning back
I hang on to a runaway train
Take me away

Reaching out to rule the world
you'll watch the mirror shatter
As you'll be dazzled by the sight
Once only diamonds mattered

How can you justify the way
When you wake up screaming
Will you pretend that you were blind
When you were really seeing

Your image everywhere
The looking glass: a sheet of ice
It's thick enough to dance on
In a frozen realm of lies

But the ice will break
And you will scream repenting
Oh boy the ice will break
You'll just feel your heart rending

Riding on to a world of funny flowers
Riding on to the white wide world
If coming back would hurt my pride
I rather take another ride
Riding on, winter on the mirror
Riding on into the unknown
If I'll awake in pain one day
I gotta catch just one more train

Days gone by
Who'd wanna live forever
On our knees up your road
Paved with good intentions
Fly high
Where angels can't breathe no more
Some dare to go blind
Some stay behind

I hang on to a runaway train
No turning back
Tethered to a runaway train
Take me away
Torpid in the wind and rain
No turning back
I hang on to a runaway train
Take me away

Hang on to a runaway train
No turning back
Tethered to a runaway train
Take me away
Torpid in the wind and rain
in the wind and rain
I hang on to that runaway train

[yanava]

This is one of the most perfect songs ever made

[omegamoonspell]

Really, the person who dislikes this song doesn't know what music is all about. He must be a reggaeton fan

[acefrehley777]

Genuis

kiske <3

[JohannesFrykholm]

@Predelnik No, Bob Catley is at the beginning. The only thing Kiske sings is the calm part before the final chorus

[Predelnik]

@stogl The one at the beginning is Michael Kiske :) But personally Bob Catley made this song for me (he's singing from "Reaching out to rule the world

you'll watch the mirror shatter ...").

[MaagicAndTechnology]

This song is my nan's death song :/

[stogl]

I would replace jorn, as his voice e is too heavy for this song. The best is the singer that is singing at the very beggining of the song.

[rune199414]

This is one of my favorite songs by Tobias sammet, it is PERFECT like all other songs from Avantasia and Edguy!

The only bad thing about this song are that Michael Kiske are singing, they should replace him with someone else! But since he is one of Sammet's big idols i'm happy that Tobi got to sing with him...AGAIN

[VexType]

The lyrics are absolutely breath-taking. And the music... just wow. Tobias Sammet is God.
