Epica

Epica is a Dutch symphonic metal band founded by guitarist and vocalist Mark Jansen subsequent to his departure from After Forever. They are known for their symphonic sound and the use of female vocals and male growls performed by Simone Simons and Mark Jansen, respectively. All six members write the music, but Mark Jansen and Simone Simons write most of the lyrics,[citation needed] which largely deal with philosophical topics, including science, religion, and world events. To date, Epica has released five studio albums (not including their instrumental album The Score – An Epic Journey), with their most recent studio album, Requiem for the Indifferent, released on March 9, 2012. more »

Playing a million pictures in my mind
That travel at the speed of light
Been living in a world turned inside out
Diving through a sea that is profound

Gracing the code above and tasting life
The will options deciphered signs
Believing worlds below that crushed mankind
Breaking ground within the great design

Do not try to defy creation
See the world through the looking glass
Within reach is a fading horizon, deep down the flames grow
You may find you’re hallucinating
If reality is defied
I can sense the eclipse is rising, showing the blood red moon
This time your mind will find a virtual phantasmic parade

It is a choice that is my own to make
A free will to risk a leap of faith
Is it my outcome that I will survive?
Finding out my life has been a lie

Do not try to defy creation
See the world through the looking glass
Within reach is a fading horizon, deep down the flames grow
You may find you’re hallucinating
If reality is defied
I can sense the eclipse is rising, showing the blood red moon
This time your mind will find a virtual phantasmic parade

Make believers
Your divine machinery
Not believing
This will seal the deal
Seize the liar
Selling hollow prophecies
Burn the hounds alive
You can watch the world bow down to you

Do not try to defy creation
See the world through the looking glass
Within reach is a fading horizon, deep down the flames grow
You may find you’re hallucinating
If reality is defied
I can sense the eclipse is rising, showing the blood red moon
This time your mind will find a virtual phantasmic parade

Do not try to defy creation
See the world through the looking glass

I live to not let go

You may find you’re hallucinating
If reality is defied

Behold the vertigo
I won’t let go

This time your mind will find a virtual phantasmic parade
Abandon fear give in before your mind can never escape
