lyrics

The world turns off
The hopes are drowning
And everything’s disenchanted
I hear some voices
They draw me far away from the world

My body holds me from this crusade
Questions are eternal
But answers don’t unravel

Was this course just vanity?
The hourglass is losing its last sand

And I just realize the absurdity
My pilgrimage was vain
The ascension was only illusion

The funeral masquerade of all a deception
But human has his reasons
That can’t see when he prays
Did we have to kneel down in the darkness
And stay the master’s sheep?
Did we have to rise and see?

We’ve grown too fast
Without any escape
Rocked in all these myths
Where nothing ever skidded
But faith is fragile
And questions are not subtle

Why such fear of the high?
Why glimpse this haunt between my wrinkles? (Between my wrinkles)
So many things never left in doubt
So many properties lost in this mission (lost in this mission)

Did we have to deprive of the unknown?
Did we have to deprive of the sight?
I’m drowning in a tear’s vortex
The wind has already stopped to blow
What have I left from my weapon?
In this purgatory, I was allowed
My promised land was only a dream
Bursting from the revealed lies
Before my soul arises
