The Conflict Songtext
von Glass Hammer

There is a place inside of everyone
An empty space that′s calling for someone

Someone to wash away the tears
And take the pain away
Someone to lift your spirit higher and higher
To a place beyond the fear
Beyond the loneliness
Don't you see your soul is searching higher and higher now!

Your soul -- a towering fortress circled ′round
By a fearsome host come to drag you down

See how they hammer away
Until all hope is gone
Yet there to lift your spirit higher and higher
A needed champion arrives
Upon the field
With a mighty shout he lifts you higher and higher now!


But will I find a perfect place?
Another world, another space?
So I will open up a door
That leads me on to Evermore

See how they hammer away
With bad philosophy
Yet there to lift my spirit higher and higher
The one that made it all
The one that took the fall
And sent my spirit searching higher and higher!

But will I find a perfect place?
Another world, another space?
So I will open up a door
That leads me on to Evermore
That leads me on to Evermore
That leads me on

...And what of you old friend? You've grown so mysterious. What are you up to in that workshop of yours? Something beautiful, I hope. You are a genius with the chisel, and the greatest artist of our time. I am proud to call you friend...

...the visions have grown darker. I know from your last letter that you've seen and heard things too. What voice is it that speaks to you in the night, and what does it tell you? Regardless, you should never give in to it...

I know you′ve grown lonely these last years, but concentrate on your art. We all need another one of your masterpieces!...
