Lyrics Prologue - Ayreon

Prologue

The Time Telepathy Experiment
MERLIN:
This is the voice of Merlin
Listen well, for it concerns you
This chronicle commences in the year 2084 A. D
Mankind has virtually destroyed itself
Its survival depends on «The Final Experiment»
Scientists from the 21st century have developed a new computer program called «Time Telepathy»
By using this technique they have sent visions of humanities' decline back in
time
These transmissions have been received by the mind of a blind minstrel,
who lives in 6th century Britain
His name… is «Ayreon»
Overture
Ayreon’s Quest
MERLIN:
It shall be Ayreon’s quest to sing of these visions and thus warn the world of
its impending downfall in order to change its future into a long and prosperous
one
