[A. The premonition] A STRANGE SENSATION COMES OVER AYREON, AS IF SOMETHING MYSTERIOUS IS ABOUT TO OCCUR. [B. Dreamtime (words become a song)] SUDDENLY A VISION EMERGES IN AYREON'S EVER-BLACK WORLD AND HE FINDS HIMSELF SINGING ABOUT THE HORRID PROJECTIONS ETCHED INTO HIS BRAIN. [AYREON:] a cry in the silence a shine in the dark like a rising star the dream is coming images of violence a flight through time and pace it's such a lonely place the dream has started the smoke is rising the vision's getting clearer and words become a song in the dreamtime I've lost control marooned and cold I suffer the fears of a future untold I cannot change the shape of things to come the smoke is rising the vision's getting clearer the hands of time are whirling around I'm realising the future's getting nearer and words become a song [C. The awakening] ABRUPTLY THE VISION ENDS AND AYREON RECEDES INTO HIS DARKNESS.
