Lyrics Epilogue: The Memory Remains - Ayreon

Epilogue: The Memory Remains

And in the end, when all the dreams are dreamt
All your desires have long dissolved
A feeling free, surreal serenity
A desperate search for truth resolved
All hope dispelled, forgotten dreams unquelled
The frailest link within the chain
Once brisk with life, too fragile to survive
A barren world devoid of pain
But the memory remains
Starlight breaks, the sleeper is awake
You understand your timeless quest
A dormant waste, a cold, forsaken place
Their bodies numb, their minds suppressed
You’ve felt the screams, you have dreamt the dreams
But most of all, you’ve lived the pain
They will revive, you will make them thrive
Your hopeless life’s not lived in vain
For the memory remains
Can you feel them cry inside,
Can you feel them die inside,
You can still the screams in you,
You can make their dreams come true
Remember forever…
