| As ages went by
 | 
| The dreaming head survived
 | 
| Enclosed in a black shrine
 | 
| Oracle for the mighty and high
 | 
| Caught in a strange inner battle
 | 
| A place beyond time
 | 
| Its struggle within
 | 
| Unapparent from without
 | 
| Once all the power in the world was mine
 | 
| All that’s left is moribund flesh
 | 
| And the power to keep my dreams alive
 | 
| Plant ideas in someone’s mind
 | 
| My mind is trembling
 | 
| My thoughts absorbed by the ancient stones
 | 
| My spirit is willing
 | 
| My dreams defiant past flesh and bone
 | 
| All the choices in the world are mine
 | 
| All that’s left is drying flesh
 | 
| And the power to make my mark in time
 | 
| Plant ideas in someone’s mind
 | 
| My mind a whirl of visions
 | 
| My thoughts absorbed by the ancient stones
 | 
| My spirit is soaring
 | 
| My dreams defiant past flesh and bone
 | 
| As ages went by
 | 
| The dreaming head survived
 | 
| Enclosed in a black shrine
 | 
| Oracle for the mighty and high
 | 
| Heir to an ancient mystery
 | 
| From a place beyond time
 | 
| Its knowledge within
 | 
| Unapparent from without
 | 
| Once I went on a quest divine
 | 
| When all i had was a legion of men
 | 
| I sought and found eternal life
 | 
| I conquered the world and made it mine
 | 
| My mind is wide awake
 | 
| My thoughts absorbed by the ancient stones
 | 
| My spirit is exulting
 | 
| My dreams defiant past flesh and bone
 | 
| My mind a well of power
 | 
| My thoughts absorbed by the ancient stones
 | 
| My spirit undying
 | 
| My dreams defiant past flesh and bone
 | 
| But knowledge has to grow in time
 | 
| All that’s left is lost days past
 | 
| The things I’ve done and left undone
 | 
| A dreaming head under a dawn sky
 | 
| As ages went by
 | 
| The dreaming head survived
 | 
| Enclosed in a black shrine
 | 
| Oracle for the mighty and high
 | 
| Cursed with immortality
 | 
| In a place beyond time
 | 
| Its dreams within
 | 
| Unapparent from without |
