Lyrics:

A: Glimmer of Hope

[Anneke van Giersbergen]
Through their eyes we will see
[Bob Catley]
With their hands we will create
[Anneke van Giersbergen]
In their world we will be free
[Bob Catley]
With our minds we'll shape their fate

[Steve Lee]
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Forming right before our eyes
We're alive

[Anneke van Giersbergen]
Through their pain we'll learn to live
[Bob Catley]
Remember all life has to give

[Jorn Lande]
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Re-ignite the sparkle in our eyes
We're alive! So alive!

B: World of Tomorrow Dreams

[Tom Englund]
I see a planet, perfect for our needs
Behold our target, a world to plant our seeds
[Steve Lee]
There must be life, first remove any trace of doubt!
They may all die, don't you think we should check it out?
[Daniel Gildenlow]
We have no choice, we waited far too long
This is our planet, this is where they belong
[Jorn Lande]
We may regret this, is this the way it's supposed to be?
A cold execution, a mindless act of cruelty!

[Jorn Lande]
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise

[Hansi Kursch]
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise

[Tom Englund]
I see mainly reptiles, a lower form of intelligence
Mere brainless creatures with no demonstrable sentience
[Jorn Lande]
What makes us superior, we did not do so great ourselves!
A dying race, imprisoned in restricted shells

[Jorn Lande]
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise

[Hansi Kursch]
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our future lies
In the World of Tomorrow Dreams, our hopes will rise

[Derek Sherinian]

C: Collision Course

D: From the Ashes

[Tom Englund]
And as the smoke slowly rises
[Jonas Renkse]
Our planets bare and cold
[Tom Englund]
But as the black sky brightens
[Jonas Renkse]
A wondrous world unfolds

[Daniel Gildenlow]
We're at the dawn of a new age
[Bob Catley]
As we hear the final cries
[Daniel Gildenlow]
Ready to enter the next stage
[Bob Catley]
From the ashes we will rise

[Steve Lee]
And as the smoke slowly rises
[Hansi Kursch]
Our planets bare and cold
[Steve Lee]
But as the black sky brightens
[Hansi Kursch]
A wondrous world unfolds

[Floor Jansen]
We're at the dawn of a new age
[Jorn Lande]
As we hear the final cries
[Floor Jansen]
Ready to enter the next stage
[Jorn Lande]
From the ashes we will rise!

E: Glimmer of Hope Reprise

[Daniel Gildenlow]
Now the die is cast, the first step taken
A glimmer of hope lights up our lives
Visions of the past, dreams forsaken
Re-ignite the sparkle in our eyes
We are alive
