In a dream

A feeling that there
That is lurking under the surface
Almost reaching, standing still
Like something holds me back
All seems so wrong
And my world turns upside down
Calling from a distant
Closeness – an insurmountable task
Existing in a dream
Restless and far away
Breaking out from these chains
A crucial struggle, infinite
Time catches up
There is no such thing like being cured
The wish to turn back time
Moments failed could be healed?
Existing in a dream
Restless and far away
Breaking out from these chains
A crucial struggle, infinite
Moments failed could have been healed
Thoughts of doubt and fear
Viral and poisoning
Sobering of the mind
To finally know what´s real

Invisible Walls

Out into the unknown
Staring into the darkened presence
Imprisoned by my own thoughts
Survival over time
Invisible walls cage me in
Place and time intertwined
Everything is connected deep within
A circular pattern infinite
Thrown into this world
To exist, to fulfill a fate?
Awakening from the deepest slumber
In this construction of reality
Invisible walls cage me in
Place and time intertwined
Everything is connected deep within
A circular pattern infinite
Dreamlike existence
Questioning of the own will
Waiting for the dawn
Blinded by darkness
Dreamlike existence
Questioning of the own will
Waiting for the dawn
Blinded by darkness

Ruins
08:00

We know nothing, you did know, did you know?
All vanish like a drop in the sea
Craving for eternity
All that remains will crumble away
To bloom, to flower and to die
Is the way of the world to be
But men´s spirit it´s not alike
The noon of expression signals the onset of night
Ruins as witness of time
Don´t you think this will be again?
The peak of achievements rings in the fall
A universal rule unbreakable and divine.
To bloom, to flower and to die
Is the way of the world to be
But with men´s spirit it´s not alike
The noon of expression signals the onset of night
Those who build
Seek to alter the universe
Let them play
Again and again again
Those who build
Seek to alter the universe
Let them bleed
Again and again again

Pendulum of Time

Wolves gather around us
The fur has changed but their nature is the same
Future – a mirror of the past
Universal - unbreakable rule?
Wolves gather around us
The fur has changed but their nature is the same
Future – a mirror of the past
Universal - unbreakable rule?
Sorrow and pain fills the soul
Ancient wisdom inherited
The pendulum of time swings back
Fear takes over the order - retrotopian curse!
Sorrow and pain fills the soul

Fear takes over the order - retrotopian curse!
Wolves gather around us / their fur has changed
Its nature is the same
