lyrics

Today I had a dream in which I had to die...
Today I died and wished to have a dream...

I can’t… I can’t control it. This anger, this fear… I hate this. I hate this all. But I have no need to feel guilty, cause I’m nobody. Cause this is my reality and I will continue on forever… I wish one day, only but one day, this would have been different…

When limited to my boundaries
As I can’t find the meaning of life
Faceless molds and sceneries
Will seem to haunt me alive…

Ascending through a cosmic spiral
Imagining the steps I must find
Not sensing the inner rival
Lurking and stalking behind the walls

I’ve fallen for infinity
Into my colorful dreams
Where light has not faded
Into the depths of unknown grim

Falling to the start
Crawling where I belong
Like chains that drill me apart
It ain’t so easy, to die alone...
