Anomalie
Refugium
1. In Fear of Tomorrow
With the sense of security
and the sunlight in my face
I open my eyes once again just
to realize that nothing has changed.
My life is an endless street
fading away in the untouched distance,
with no hope to reach what they called
the sense of life, the meaning of existence.
With every step it feels like the next
read leaf falls off my tree of life.
With every step I ask myself
"Is it worth to survive?".
With every look in the mirror I see
those worried eyes in a broken place.
And with every day that has come to an
end I'm one step closer to the edge.
One last resort, warm and silent.
A secret shelter is my ardent desire.
Oh please preserve myself from this fire
which is burning deep in my chest while
the world I knew lays to rest.
Incredibility,
don't believe what they say!
Treachery, cold steel at my back!
Controversy, you versus me!
Insanity,
please set me free,
please set me free.
Set me free!
2. Spiritual Distortion
Darkness sets in and the lights lay to rest,
it's the rise of a sorcerous night.
Just flames of ancient fires keep me alive.
Is it all just a dream or distorted reality?
Could it be true, could it be real,
or is it just a parody of fantasy?
Clear thoughts in fight,
rituals of another time.
Magic rites in a worthless world,
the spirits of our fathers
are present tonight.
Take a deep breath, open your mind,
receive the power of those burning lights.
Enjoy the silence, feel the strength,
explore the realms of the other end.
The other end!
Trust your heart, your inner voice,
lead yourself out of the void.
Out of he bleakness that dwells within
and you will see through the illusion of sin.
3. Untouched Walls
Silent pictures all around me,
they're nothing but empty frames.
Violent memories are stalking me,
blank faces without names.
Somber days
collected on a wall,
cold stone testifys
my downfall.
I miss the sky,
miss the smile of the sun.
I hate this place,
I hate what I've become.
I am caught
between this walls,
I am caught in a
prison of thoughts.
Broken glass,
bleeding flesh,
face to the floor.
I don't want
to be a slave of
my fears anymore.
I ask myself what's
behind these walls
I've built myself
long time ago.
A prison for my mind,
for my fantasy which
I can't touch because it
only exist inside of me!
I am caught
between this walls,
I am caught in a
prison of thoughts.
4. Between Reality and the World Beyond
Today is when the voices in
my head stop screaming my name,
today is when the die is cast
and all doubts are fading away.
Today is when my sorrows
are losing importancy,
I have lost all faith!
I'm right on the edge
and I'm not here to stay!
Tear down the walls between
reality and the world beyond,
burst your limits and follow me
into pure ecstasy.
Distorted visions,
blurred reflections,
I'm losing control!
Haunting retrospections,
the voice of the past
screams for my soul.
An evermore rush commands my mind,
I can't give enough to pay the
price for the healing light.
Choose your way
to leave this place,
no more fucking compromises.
It's the day of reckoning,
the time has come to
spread your wings.
Today is when the voices in
my head stop screaming my name,
today is when the die is cast
and all doubts are fading away.
Today is when my sorrows
are losing importancy,
I have lost all faith!
I'm right on the edge
and I'm not here to stay.
I'm not here to stay!
Tear down the walls between
reality and the world beyond!
Return to your roots, follow the
heart that beats deep inside of you.
Listen to the sound of the rain
that falls towards the ground,
and sing your very last song about
the realm where you belong.
5. Solace
In my dreams the thrones are forsaken,
endless silence is my legacy.
I am the only one left unbroken,
left in a ruined realm of Debris.
We came with nothing,
and with empty hands
we'll have to leave.
We called this life a game,
but near the end I've realized
that we can't lose or win,
with no regrets I am here
to pay the price.
Abandoned streets full
of memories I've left behind
display the happiness of
a long forgotten time.
Pale reflections
like movies from the past
show young and guiltless eyes,
imaged on cold glass.
Full of hope, the mien unburdened,
bring me solace to the place where
I will eternally dwell.
6. Leaving Somnia
The hope that I'm not just dreaming
led me through the dark like the
far away gleam of a dying sun.
Caught between the lies about a working
world and the oppressive idea of the truth.
It was always easy to believe what they say
without bringing it into question.
But my inner voice
literally screams to wake up,
it's time to leave this somnia.
Open your eyes,
don't turn away.
Open your mind and don't
believe what they say.
Open your eyes for the truth
and I am sure that you will
leave somnia too.
The illusion of freedom made me
oblivious for the naked reality
which had always surrounded me.
Accept their rules
and never ask why.
Like a slave
in an untouchable jail,
without rights you should
serve until you die.
Open your eyes,
don't turn away.
Open your mind and don't
believe what they say.
Open your eyes for the truth
and I am sure that you will
leave somnia too.
Break the silence and
rise up against authorities,
become what you're supposed to be.
As from now we will
walk our very own ways
in search of freedom,
in search of a better place.
Open your eyes,
don't turn away.
Open your mind and don't
believe what they say.
Open your eyes for the truth
and I am sure that you will
leave somnia too.
Leaving somnia...
Under the dome of those
who pretended security we
dwelled like spineless cattle.
The time has come to live in liberty!
Please forgive me that
I've failed to protect
you from this travesty.
But those days are gone,
finally those days are gone.
7. Freiflug 48° 23' N, 16° 19' O
I can feel the
rain on my skin,
washing away the
burden of bygone days.
I never thought I
would laugh again but
the clouds are gone.
The sun enlightens
my soul again,
I am coming home.
This life was not
the end of the line,
It was just a lesson
in patience.
We all have to
serve our time to
reach what I call
deliverance.
8. Refugium
Just watch the sunset
and listen to the wind,
in peaceful silence
hear the voice within.
Take this moment,
it's all that I can give.
A tearless farewell as
my very last gift.
There is no reason
to grieve for me.
I am not gone forever,
I just break free.
It is predestined to
leave this world in solitude,
but someday you will follow.
Be sure someday you'll
cross my way again!
Gentle creeks drawn in soil
like silhouettes of another world.
A breath of wind tells of somber fates
but all those sorrows dwell so far away.
Just watch the sunset
and listen to the wind.
Hear my words, I'm the
voice within.
Take this moment!
It's my last chance
for one last farewell,
for one last dance.
There is no reason
for you to cry.
I have left this place
but I have not died.
We always knew that
nothing lasts forever,
so one day you will
leave as well.
One day you'll break
this worldly spell!
This life felt
like an endless search
for the place where I belong,
for my saving resort.
This life led me to the
gates of what we couldn't see
to find my final shelter where
I'm not just a refugee.
You saved my life
for so many years
but I had to pass the
threshold beyond my fears.
I've seen this place
in my dreams night by night.
My own Refugium, my own realm
on the other side.
Mellow lands
so old and wise,
like untouched clouds
up in the sky.
A breath of wind
whispers your name.
Oh please come home,
this life was just a game.
