Ayreon - The Garden Of Emotions

Behold: The Star Towers of The Electric Castle! See how it embraces the sky!
How insignificant the mere mortal, dwarfed by the majesty of its electric
edifice! But first, my seven searchers – you must meander through the
verdant vines of the Garden of Emotions. Succumb to its allure. Breathe deep
the intoxicating aroma of endless– entwined emotions....

without a care or woe

I'm getting high on love
spiritual vibrations
to set bad karma free

free my ka, how much longer must I wait?
