Watcher In The Sky Lyrics
I'm watching the mountains I'm watching the sea
Observing the creatures I am lost - set me free
Across the heavens I made my way
I've seen empires rise and blown away
I have arrived at my destiny but after all
there's just emptiness in me
Out in the darkness - I am going mad
Where are the others - there's silence in my head
`Cause I'm a watcher in the sky
I've seen universes die
Out in the cold my systems overload
I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
I'm trapped in this nightmare
Endless tortures and pain, milleniums have gone by
Uhhh, it drives me insane
Who am I now?
I'm not man - I'm not machine
I gave my life away for the Iron Savior dream
`Cause I'm a watcher in the sky
I've seen universes die
Out in the cold my systems overload
I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
(Piet) Hooked to the circuits of a lifeless, cold machine
Lost in a world of artificial means
Ripped out of my body
I'll stand the test of time
Am I perpetual? - am I devine?
I'm a watcher in the sky
My soul has drowned in the tears I cannot cry
I'm the watcher the chosen one but I am lost in time
I'm a watcher in the sky I've seen the years go by
I am the chosen one
Out in the cold my systems overload and I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
Watching the mountains, watching the sea, watching the creatures
You'll never be free
Watcher in the sky
Observing the creatures I am lost - set me free
I've seen empires rise and blown away
I have arrived at my destiny but after all
there's just emptiness in me
Where are the others - there's silence in my head
I've seen universes die
Out in the cold my systems overload
I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
Endless tortures and pain, milleniums have gone by
Uhhh, it drives me insane
I'm not man - I'm not machine
I gave my life away for the Iron Savior dream
I've seen universes die
Out in the cold my systems overload
I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
Lost in a world of artificial means
Ripped out of my body
I'll stand the test of time
Am I perpetual? - am I devine?
My soul has drowned in the tears I cannot cry
I'm the watcher the chosen one but I am lost in time
I'm a watcher in the sky I've seen the years go by
Out in the cold my systems overload and I am lost in time
Watcher in the sky
Watching the mountains, watching the sea, watching the creatures
You'll never be free
Watcher in the sky

A slightly different version was also featured in the Iron Savior album - a side project founded by Kai Hansen (Gamma Ray), Thomen Stauch (Blind Guardian) & Piet Sielck.
"Who am I now? I'm not man, I'm not machine I gave my life away for the Iron Savior dream"
I love that part. One of their best songs...
I don't understand this song. Why is the singer trapped? He has free will. He has choice. Every action has a reaction. Very confused. Overall good lyrics, though.
He is trapped in his eternal life
