Gamma Ray - Somewhere Out In Space (E Standard Tuning)
Title track from Gamma Ray’s classic 5th album, tuned up half a step from Eb to E Standard.
(Music & Lyrics by Kai Hansen)
I’m trapped in a castle of illusions out in space - no more illusions!
Out on a journey, on a mission for the human race!
Terrified - I had to realise, that I’ve been talkin’ to the gods of fire...
I got nowhere to stand, ’cause I’m a running man, to get away...
All that I see is the years... somewhere out in space...
And it’s time for deliverance!
Tomorrow, I’ll see it - another day’s rise ... right before my eyes!
Been sinking in sorrow, but now I’m gonna rise,
No more reasons why...
I’m a watcher in the dark, I’m so cold inside my heart...
I’m a temple in the storm, and I’m bound to be reborn!
Take me down to the underground, let me see the gods of fire...
’Cause I know where they live, and I know where they stand -
Another reason there to leave...
Take me down, take me down, take me to the underground -
Let me meet the gods of fire...
And all of their intention is the center of it all...
All that I see is the years... somewhere out in space...
and it’s time for deliverance!
Now that I know I’ve got to get away...
I wanna know how to get away...
Time for deliverance is now!
And as the sun appeared, up in the sky...
I saw another day, that’s drifting by...
I saw my people cry, a million tears -
Into eternity - they disappeared!
(Solos - Kai, Henjo, Kai)
Now it’s time to say goodbye, or we will sink in sorrow...
No, we don’t know the reason why, another day, tomorrow...
Oh, I thank you for giving me hope...
Oh, follow me into a new life!
All that I see is the years...
Now all that I see is the tears...
All that I see is the years... somewhere out in space...
And it’s time for deliverance!
Now all that I see is the fear... somewhere out in space...
And it’s time for deliverance!
I wanna know how to get away...
I wanna know how to get away...
Come set me free... just set me free!
Just let me go away!
I wanna get away! Get away...
I wanna get away! Get away...
Somewhere out in space...
