See the cemetery sky
Carmine red and deep
Watch the oceans rising high
It's the human stain
Talk about the growing hunger
Ask why with deep concern
Don't you think the human race is ceaselessly vain
But it hurts to be alive, my friend
In this silent tide we're driftwood passing by
Don't you wish you were a child again
Just for a minute
Just for a minute more
Hear the ticking of a clock
The sound of life itself
No one really wants to die
To save the world
Tell me that you're torn asunder
From how we fail to learn
And tell me as the earth goes under
Where's your anger now
So it hurts to be alive, my friend
In this masquerade where all one day must die
Don't you wish you were unborn again
Just for a minute
Just for a minute more
Tick tock
The ticking that could tear asunder
The beating from a heart of stone
The lust of your divine prosperity
Cause it costs to be alive, my friend
And this life that someone merely gave to you
That's the price you pay
Minute by minute
You beg for a minute more
Under fears you restore your beliefs,
Like an old man in church on a Sunday.
Crawl the dirt on your elbows and knees,
Any minute you know you could die.
So come save us, turn water to wine,
Give me words of unfathomable wisdom
As I'm crossing the enemy's line,
Where the wounded and dead show the way.
(Show me the way)
Tell me when the night is gone,
Like washed away,
Make a wish
Beneath the mourning star.
How can there be a reason for war
For the life of a human that suffers
I remember, I heard it before,
Tell me all when a new day begins.
(The new day begins)
Tell me when the night is gone,
Like washed away,
Make a wish
beneath the mourning star.
When the victory is won,
The old cliché,
Underneath the same old mourning star.
[Rest in peace all that be good]
Why please tell me why
[Rest in peace thy fatherhood]
You gave the world all this pain
Tell me when the night is gone,
Like washed away,
Make a wish
Beneath the mourning star.
When the victory is won,
The old cliché,
Underneath the same old mourning star.
I don't dare to take it slowly,
Cause time may pass me by.
Restless like a newborn morning,
I am hard to satisfy.
Will you take me away?
In the silence of the darkness,
I can't pretend
I'm wide awake
Afraid I could go under.
In the silence of the darkness,
I stumble for the light of day,
But the journey never ends.
I can paint the world with flowers,
Grown by heaven's gate.
And reckless like a stormy ocean,
I could cover them with hate.
But it all sounds the same.
In the silence of the darkness,
I can't pretend
I'm wide awake,
Afraid I could go under.
In the silence of the darkness,
I stumble for the light of day,
But the journey never ends.
In the silence of the darkness,
I can't pretend I'm wide awake,
Afraid I could go under.
In the silence of the darkness,
I stumble for the light of day,
But the journey never ends.
What's a miracle
If life itself is not?
Who am I to praise its worth
With a hymn
I may stumble
Over words that I forgot,
Just as life itself
May slowly begin.
Sing me a song for the mountains to move,
Sing me the anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem of life.
I am skeptical
I like my glass of wine,
I don't know your name
Or what I am to do.
One day you'll wonder why
Try read between the lines,
And you will sing for me
The way I sang for you.
Sing me a song for the ocean to part,
Sing me the anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem of life.
So another page is turned,
I pray I understand what's happening,
But if anything
I do know this,
I'll be the best I can.
Sing me a song like the angels rejoice,
Sing me an anthem of life,
Sing me the anthem,
Sing me the anthem of life.
First you said that you would never leave me
Never were my days
Then you told me life is never easy
And left without a trace
But how come I want you
Like the soil yearns for the rain
Won't you light up, won't you light up my life
Let my soul breathe
Tell me wrong tell me right
You're my mind cage
Like a mountain far away
You were always there
Dressed in summer white
You will never know how much I miss you
And open to my fear
Find the maze, I'll make my way through
Enter if you dare
How, how come I want you
Like the soil yearns for the rain
Won't you light up, won't you light up my life
Let my soul breathe
Tell me wrong tell me right
You're my mind cage
Like a mountain far away
You were always there
Dressed in summer white
Remember my name
And paint the darkness with your light
We'll sing you a song for all broken hearted
Like edenechos in my head
Then you're forgiven, gave you way
Won't you light up, won't you light up my life
Let my soul breathe
Tell me wrong tell me right
You're my mind cage
Like a mountain far away
You were always there
Dressed in summer white
In a garden in a hand
Lies a key to shadowland
You're far from feeling strong
(The worst begins)
In the sediments of life
In the comfort of a knife
You hold your breath
And pray to god it won't take long
And you wonder where the rainbow ends
With its autumn setting sun
There's a way from it all
Though the chances are small
We'll come back again
Won't you think it over
Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
And soon enough we'll go
Where nobody can touch us
Like a mother you were aimed
And you gave her what she claimed
Just like a good old friend
In the abyss of the mind
You found all there is to find
But we all have broken hearts to mend
So you wonder where the rainbow ends
Where the world must have begun
There's a way from it all
Though the chances are small
We'll come back again
Won't you think it over
Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
And soon enough we'll go
Where nobody can touch us
There's a way from it all
Though the chances are small
We'll come back again
Won't you think it over
Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
And soon enough we'll go
Life is a pendulous fall
But maybe worth the pain
(So you wonder where the rainbow ends)
Where nobody can touch us
Once in my life
A second of eternity
Seems long in my mind
What used to be
Keep changing over time
Don't go
Please don't say it's over 'til it is
Don't say goodbye
Like we'd never meet again
Leave me a lie
At the season's end
Moments in time
Seems to be so long
In my old mind
My images of may
You gave me a sign
I took the chance
Of never looking back
I hope you understand
Don't say goodbye
Like we'd never meet again
Leave me a lie
At the season's end
Come lift the light
Into heaven with a song
Don't say goodbye
'Cause it's been so long
It's been so long
It's been so long
You gave me a sign
I took a chance
By never looking back
I hope you understand
I hope you don't say goodbye
Like we'd never meet again (Say goodbye...)
Leave me a lie
At the season's end (Season's end)
Come lift the light
Into heaven with a song (With a song...)
Don't say goodbye
'Cause it's been so long
