The Time Telepathy Project has sent images of humanity’s decline back into the past. Ayreon, a blind minstrel living in the 6th century, is the one who receives them. While he does not quite understand what is happening in these visions, he starts singing about them. When they pause he retreats back...

… Let us go back to the Dark Ages
(Dark Ages – Dark Ages – Dark Ages – Dark Ages)
A. The Premonition
[Instrumental]
B. Dreamtime (Words Become Song)
[AYREON]
A cry in the silence
A shine in the dark
Like a rising star
The dream is coming
Images of violence
A flight through time and space
It's such a lonely place
The dream has started
The smoke is rising
The vision's getting clearer
And words become a song...
In the dreamtime
I've lost control
Marooned and cold
I suffer the fears
Of a future untold
I cannot change
The shape of things to come
The smoke is rising
The vision's getting clearer
And words become a song...
In the dreamtime
[WOMEN]
The smoke is rising
The vision's getting clearer
The hands of time are whirling around
I'm realizing
The future's getting nearer
And words become a song...
[AYREON]
The smoke is rising
The vision's getting clearer
And words become a song...
C. The Awakening
[Instrumental]
