Abyss of Time (Countdown to Singularity) Songtext
von Epica

Fill the void in me
See life beyond the veil
Replace all thoughts from the abyss
With cosmic energy
Ignite the flame in thee
Fill out the tree of your life
We are rooted deep in the darkness and keep growing towards the light

Be without your fears
For a thousand years
Search for stillness deep inside

One thought that grows in the abyss of time
Fills up the vast space with matter and life
Free of the darkness that fetters the soul
Find at the source the end of your goal


Find the spark in me
See life beyond the dream
Replace your darkest emotions
With pure divinity
Ignite the flame in me
Unite with your inner light
We should free ourselves from the shadows and the bondage of the night

Be without your fears
For a thousand years
Be the master of your life

One thought that grows in the abyss of time
Fills up the vast space with matter and life
Free of the darkness that fetters the soul
Find at the source the end of your goal

Fight back your fears forever
Be the master of your life
Learn to unlearn

In the beginning there was a timeless, space-less nothingness
And into that nothingness came a thought, purposeful, all-pervading
So ended the Void

Surge, the Demiurge
Shaper of a false universe
Search that deadly urge
Your walls of self-protection are
Walls of self-imprisonment


Be without your fears
For a thousand years
Search for stillness deep inside
Strive for harmony in duality to revise the book of life

There was one thought that grew in the abyss of time
It filled up the vast space with matter and life
Freed from the darkness that fettered the soul
We found at the end our reason, our goal

We march on
We′re counting down
To singularity while we drown
We're moving on
To master wisdom
To be free
Ah, ah
