Avantasia - Here Be Dragons - Canciones Para Una Vida

HERE  BE  DRAGONS

En esta nueva obra de Avantasia, "Here be dragons" de este 2025, la décima de la banda de Sammet se puede intuir más que en otras a mi parecer una mezcla entre la identidad sonora de los propios Avantasia pero además la de Edguy en no pocos momentos. El disco también es de esos que he ido disfrutando más a medida que he ido escuhandola veces, es un disco completo, con matices y merec la pena prestarle atención. Hoy quiero dejar en el blog otra de sus canciones, en concreto la que da nombre a la obra, un gran tema en que colabora otra de esas magnificas voces del metal, el universal Geoff Tate, uno de los mejores cantantes que ha dado este mundo sin ningún lugar a dudas, que si une sus capacidades vocales a las compositivas de Sammet solo puede dejar pura magia, dejo en el blog hoy un enlace a youtube de este "Here be dragons".

See them talk insistently
You don't get a word
While you pretend
Keep your stance despairingly
And lock your world away

Here we go
Oh yeah (Hide away)
Come with me, come with me, oh

A carol from the edge of the world resounds
Don't be ashamed now as it carries your name
In the streets of indifference, they're asleep anyway

There be dragons
There be magic, there be shadow, there be rain
A glimmer in the veil of haze
It calls you down the rabbit hole

Step in from Amusia Town
For how long have they been abusing you
You will not believe your eyes
Marvel at the other side

Hideaway
Neath an illusion
You believe
You're deceived
'Til your eyes will agree:
Here be dragons
Hideaway
Poise in confusion
What a night
What a show
What a diablerie
Here be dragons

Now you feel like a soul in a plaything
A hoop in the street beneath a dowel to beat
And you ain't got no choice
'Cause you know you ain't free
I know what it's like
'Cause you're just like me

Looking around: isolation!
Not a woman, not a man
Just the scorn of town again

Tried to face the sun just like everyone
You shared your dreams and promises

Come right through the door
For you'll pine no more aimlessly

Running from the devil you've been taught to know
We reach out through your mind
Await you inside

Hideaway
Delve into dreams unknown
Make yourself at home
There'll be dragons
You won't be alone
Hideaway
Where the wild rose will turn its bloom
To the light of the moon
Be unheard-of wonder
A spell on you

Here be dragons
Be astoundment and wonder
It's a world over yonder
Here be not known
Here be souls that abide you
Here be tender just like you, oh

Here be dragons
Here be magic
Here be just you and I

There'll be confusion
When astounding illusion
And the straight old world pother
Flow into one another

In the Moonflower Garden
You see logic unpardoned
Here you're freak
Dare it! To be!
The crazy and lonely

And you're turning the key
You've been tucking away
When they told you to hand
Everything to allay your dreams
Your longing on your way

She felt that she's just a boy like others
Nestled in a cozy small-town life
Kept it up until she'd leave for good
When she ceased to try

You could never really see his burden
Who would tell just by an off-beat stance?
You would ask, but you'd await that moment
Missed the final chance

He'd meander down an old-town pavement
On a lonely bleak October night
Why would anybody pour their poison
Without keen insight?

She saw the world through eyes of innocent simplicity
A pristine soul dragged in a dark world play
Thereafter never spoke a word no more
But eyes revealed why she'd float away

Here be a world you hold inside
Here be rebirth, here be unwind
Here be unknown, or likes of you
Here be the wharf, the ship of fools

Afraid you might wake up there
Estranged, out of your mind
And you won't even know what's left behind

Hideaway
Neath an illusion
You believe
You're deceived
'Til your eyes will agree:
Here be dragons
Hideaway
Gape in confusion
What a night
What a show
What a diablerie (Here be dragons)

Hideaway
Neath an illusion
You believe
You're deceived
'Til your eyes will agree:
Here be dragons
Hideaway
Gape in confusion
What a night
What a show
What a diablerie
Here be dragons (Here be dragons)
