The longest and most epic song on the album (8:50). It's about the immortality of the soul, which Tobias Sammet says he's trying to find evidence of, but haven't yet.
According to Tobias Sammet, the term "space police" is a metaphor for people who want to create and enforce laws on territories that should not be limited by rules. More specifically speaking, he criticizes people who try to tell rock bands what to do and what to say when musicians are actually willing to live above rules and without limitations.
This is a cover of Austrian singer Falco. It's the first German language song by the band.
The song title is kinda misleading.
It's about the power of one's mind and what can be achieved when focusing on the elimination of negative thoughts.
It's about how one can be misunderstood for not finding the right words for expressing themselves.
A beautiful melodious song.
A bonus track. The song is about Steve Harris and Iron Maiden. I do love the lyrics.
