A dream within a dream
A world within a world
The sound of a primal scream
Travels out across the land.
Images flickering
The sound of the war machine
A procession of limousines
Travels slowly 'cross the land
Another child could use a hand.
Reaching out from within
{Chorus :}
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Annihilation looms
The Earth is an open tomb
The sound of the final boom
Rumbles fiercely 'cross the land.
Fear you're the enemy
Obliterating all but thee
You see what you want to see
Before I'm blinded, I will toast
The shade of power I love most.
The power of creation.
{Chorus}
(Scat singing)
As a child, alone and afraid
Escaping the impressions, every feeling made
I would run, run away
Into a world where the good
Was the aim of the game
And the sum of invisible power had a name.
It's the same.
{Chorus}
(Scat singing to fade)
A world within a world
The sound of a primal scream
Travels out across the land.
Images flickering
The sound of the war machine
A procession of limousines
Travels slowly 'cross the land
Another child could use a hand.
Reaching out from within
{Chorus :}
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Tembererana-na-ay
Tembererana-na-ah
Annihilation looms
The Earth is an open tomb
The sound of the final boom
Rumbles fiercely 'cross the land.
Fear you're the enemy
Obliterating all but thee
You see what you want to see
Before I'm blinded, I will toast
The shade of power I love most.
The power of creation.
{Chorus}
(Scat singing)
As a child, alone and afraid
Escaping the impressions, every feeling made
I would run, run away
Into a world where the good
Was the aim of the game
And the sum of invisible power had a name.
It's the same.
{Chorus}
(Scat singing to fade)
