I walk my own path but then I stumble
Recognize my way is born to crumble
Feel myself caught in a spider’s web
It’s the one on which my life is set
Fear the great false step
Leading to chaos and regret
The spider builds my web of destiny
Confused I’m stranded in rhapsody
Because the beginning is the end
Is the beginning is the end…. Is…
I know I also climb in this tree
Cut the web and just be free
The old days of managed steps crack
Never fall back into the evil net
Now I've come to question the spider’s way
Leading my life every single night and day
What’s its purpose, what’s its aim?
Do the different paths end up the same?
Do the different paths end up the same?
Do the different paths end up the same?
The fall I know is always close
Like the silk directions I chose
You may climb on what you think you create
But the tree you’re on still is your fate
Feel myself caught in a spider’s web
It’s the one on which my life is set
Fear the great false step
Leading to chaos and regret

Searching For Things

Deep in the woods I found my gift
It was meant to give me a lift
All abilities captured in one mind
Useless with something left to find
The spirits were font to see me be
Only one saw the hole in me
Thought of me as the completed
Didn't see me being defeated
I went out and scorched earth’s face
The beginning of my eternal chase
Took till there was nothing to take
Took and never was awake
Can you feel the time passing? (I’m passing by, I’m passing)
Can you see my destruction done? (I’m done, I’m dying)
Can you feel the time passing? (I’m passing by, I’m passing)
Can you see my destruction done? (I’m done, I’m dying)

Awakening

You kick start my dead heart
Throw me into this whirl
Which they call life
But I never realized
It’s like I woke
From a bad and long dream
Move my center to the world
Restless waiting for more
Used to be the night owl
Why not take the whole?
I’m alive, I’m alive
I’m alive, I’m alive
Before the waves of cars wash me dry
Before the city’s gray lights put me out
How come I felt alive without breathing?
How come I ended up freezing?
I’ll move to keep warm
If I spin away it’s okay
As long as I see some more
As long as I’m awake
How come I felt alive without breathing?
How come I ended up freezing?
I’ll move to keep warm
If I spin away it’s okay
As long as I see some more
As long as I’m awake
I am awake, I am awake, I am awake, am I awake?
I am awake, I am awake, I am awake, am I awake?
I am awake, I am awake, I am awake, am I awake?
I am awake, I am awake, I am awake, am I awake?

I’ll walk this world not for long
Everything empty, everyone is gone
Nothing left but dust in the sun
And the lost battle they thought they had won
Leadership still in a bunker underground
Afraid of each other, won’t make a sound
Their intrigues made them the last humans on earth
Doesn't mean they’re of any value or worth
Oversee chaos and notice beauty within
Stopping mind’s evolution, the deadliest sin
The blow of all achievements made
For God’s and security’s sake
Walking these dead tracks fills my heart with sorrow
For all that was and the loss of tomorrow
When I lay my dusty bones to endless sleep
The memories of it all will still weep
