Lyrics

The Rift

There's a rift out in space

And it could be the door

But you know I'm not sure

There's a rift out in space

And it could be the door

But you know I'm not sure

If you go through the rift

To the palace of ice

Might it be nice

Is it, paradise

If you go through the rift

To the palace of ice

Might it be nice

I'm the commander of time

In my vessel of God

I go through the rift

To the palace of ice

I'm the commander of time

In my vessel of God

I go through the rift

To the palace of ice

We may never come back

From the palace of ice

Because the rift is a door

We may never come back

From the palace of ice

Because the rift is a door

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

There's a rift out in space

And it could be the door

But you know I'm not sure

If you go through the rift

To the palace of ice

Might it be nice

Is it, paradise

I'm the commander of time

In my vessel of God

I go through the rift

To the palace of ice

We may never come back

From the palace of ice

Because the rift is a door

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah

Ooh, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
