Nowhere to go, I'm drifting off
I once was told to trust
In nothing but the eternal heights
And the stars are calling my name
Falling through skies of a new dawn
Nothing can ever change what I've become
I used to be the one in life
Seeking challenges and distant paths
Still, shadows haunting me
In fragments of what used to be
The illusion slips from my hand
As I arrive in newborn land
Heaven is blackened by clouds
Like a Masquerade with the stars
But an aura of starlit energy
Unmasks the biggest lie of all
Before my dusk the image fades
The sky is bound to fall
Nevermore shall I return
The mindless thought is gone
Thunder and rain keeps us from sanity
This journey will never end
Denied by our human vanity
Unclad by the revolutionary mind
Still, shadows haunting me
In fragments of what used to be
The illusion slips from my hand
As I arrive in newborn land
[Music: Edlund/Hanner / Lyrics: Sjogren] Nowhere to go, I'm drifting off I once was told to trust In nothing but the eternal heights And the stars are calling my name Falling through skies of a new dawn Nothing can ever change what I've become I used to be the one in life Seeking challenges and distant paths Still, shadows haunting me In fragments of what used to be The illusion slips from my hand As I arrive in newborn land Heaven is blackened by clouds Like a Masquerade with the stars But an aura of starlit energy Unmasks the biggest lie of all Before my dusk the image fades The sky is bound to fall Nevermore shall I return The mindless thought is gone Thunder and rain keeps us from sanity This journey will never end Denied by our human vanity Unclad by the revolutionary mind Still, shadows haunting me In fragments of what used to be The illusion slips from my hand As I arrive in newborn land Explain Request ×
