Hmm.. Not much to say about the meaning of this song..
It's basically the intro to the Epica story line.. Ariel who explains to us his reasons to set out on a quest for life.
He feels an agony by not knowning what his reason for living is. He assumes someone must have known, at least once.. And he suspects the find the answer in Epica, the mythical centre of the universe.. where we could find the answers to all the questions.
The funniest thing is that the chorus already gives away some of the things that will happen. He assumes someone must have known when they faced death - something he will do as well in the end - not his own death, but the death of his love.
And he says that in Epica everyone is alone and that also happens in the end.. He knows the answer by then, but he sacrificed his love for it.
The bridge of the song is an invetation to come, sit and listen to Ariel's storyn and maybe we'll find our meaning..
Well, not much of message in this song :P But I DO love this song ^^ Nice up tempo song, and especially the female backing vocals in the bridge were an awesome touch :P
