| Looking through stained windows
|
| Blue and out of my asylum
|
| The keeper of the key has lost the way
|
| And locked the doors behind him
|
| Beyond these walls and hallowed halls
|
| There shines a new horizon
|
| Draw the blinds, 'cause in my mind
|
| I am a rock, I am an island
|
| Enter the asylum, sanctuary waits
|
| Through the gates of salvation
|
| Never giving, never living
|
| The keeper’s pleased to own you
|
| There is always hell to pay
|
| So on your knees and pray
|
| Cause it’s any given, any given day
|
| Bleeding through the windowpane
|
| A purgatory rain is drowning me in sorrow
|
| Will it wash away the pain?
|
| Words before me answer not
|
| And yet forever trying
|
| I’d give my life, the life I live
|
| To live like I was finally dying
|
| Listen to the wind blow, something’s in the air:
|
| There’s a bad moon rising
|
| Keep denying, keep on hiding here
|
| In this house of the setting sun
|
| Counting one by one all my numbered days
|
| And it’s any given, unforgiven
|
| Insurrection, resurrection, any live long day
|
| Halo of empathy, shine for all, but you deny me
|
| Hate, rage, fear, they are here
|
| Shaking like a wounded animal
|
| Kept alive behind each door the keeper opens
|
| Is a haunting memory
|
| Whispers in the dead of night
|
| The shadows of the liars…
|
| They have come for me
|
| Halo of empathy, shine for all, but you deny me
|
| Hate, rage, fear, they are here
|
| Shaking like a wounded animal
|
| Please, Heaven, rain on me
|
| Wash away my disease
|
| Halo of empathy shine on me:
|
| I believe, shine on me
|
| Release ten-fold this stranglehold
|
| And I’ll be free to live
|
| Like I was finally dying
|
| Burning the asylum, embers through the air
|
| Through the gates of damnation
|
| Rising from the ashes
|
| Nothing’s going to keep me here
|
| No one can ever own you
|
| Nor should you ever dare
|
| Embrace the fear of any given, be forgiven
|
| Insurrection, resurrection, any given day…
|
| And when it’s said and done
|
| Dance with fate begun
|
| Battles lost and won, hold on, hold on
|
| The May queen turns the key
|
| Unlocks a secret diary
|
| Words bleed endlessly: how long, how long?
|
| And in a twisted mind
|
| Truth and lies are intertwined
|
| Like a puppet on a string
|
| I bring the Keeper back to life
|
| The world I believe breeds strangers like me
|
| Mortal asylums that shelter the disease
|
| Wandering without aim, our devices shift the blame:
|
| A death grip on a trigger, a plea of the insane
|
| Resonance of sympathy, frequencies disharmony
|
| Reversing my polarity turns beauty into ugly
|
| Distorted bandwidth in our mind
|
| Unravels wave lengths undefined
|
| Relentless and malign, cycling over and over
|
| Hold, hold on, you’re just a heartbeat away
|
| Hold, hold on to any given day |
