Escape From Yourself

Here i am sitting fresh and young It seems like the world is open to me Every door i knock, every step i take Is a small adventure - i am totally free Time is a dreadful thing - it passes by Taking away my youth, my freedom and my soul I fall And finally, my youth becomes the matter of the past I am like many others - forever tired and depressed Doing what i dislike and hating everyone i see So long, my liberated soul! And i fall Under endless myriads of must's Everywhere i look are obligations and restraints Time is a dreadful thing - it passes by Taking away my youth, my freedom and my soul I fall Under endless myriads of musts Everywhere i look are obligations and restraints Eternal youth and not less I'd be its slave to the grave Tasting life in every possible way As if it is my last breath

Why is everyone looking at me? Maybe they know what I know 'bout things that make me flee Feeling alone in the crowd They look with thoughtful eyes Hardly covering the sneer As if they know 'bout my lies I'm afraid my destiny is near Who... Do you know this? Are... Can you feel it? You... Will you forget me? I am you and you are me - Inseparable identity So, you can't escape from yourself The only way is to travel to hell

You've made a mistake, the things you fought with - wasn't right You're not a Hero You always bothered me to do what I might you've made a mistake Look back, what have you done! And now you sitting alone Forsaken, forgotten, unknown You thought you was right You have to understand You're not a hero Face The truth Look in the mirror You'll see the evil It's too late No one can help you All you gain - is hate And you know it's true Remember the time you were young You was so strong and selfish And maybe everything could be all right If you chose the right way But now you sitting alone Forsaken, forgotten, unknown You thought you was right You have to understand It's too late No one can help you All you gain - is hate And you know it's true

So i'm there, the bed is hard i can not see a thing I am thirsty and starving - what would that mean? My head is sore and heavy, the body is in pain I feel hostility embedding me and someone lurk Hey, where am I? Who are you? Tell me - I need to know! Why are you staring at me? Tell me! Right now! In endless terror I hear someone open the door I struggle to shout but my throat is sore I jump to my feet being ready to spur Something is coming to take me to hell! The heavy hand is put on my shoulder Thinking I'm doomed I start to scream Then I feel someone shaking me And soft kind words 'wake up, my dear!'

There are these days when you are lazy all the time when all the feelings leave you empty so you just look and can not see you listen and dont hear a sound Your blood is frozen in your veins As if no life is left in you at all And you go on through frozen city to nowhere You're obsessed with one and only thought Why? Why has this city chosen you for its designs? This frozen city is merciless to your emotions You try to gather up your thoughts And to remember sweet moments of your life But you cant find the answers to your questions You just go on through cold city to nowhere You're obsessed with one and only thought Why? Why has this city chosen you for its designs? This frozen city is merciless to your emotions

We are running from ourselves And I'm just tired to be in search of a better life This will never end This will never end I'm playing fool with myself And now i'm falling to the ground I'm desieve myself I'm falling to the ground This is my own grave Nothing Holds me in this life No hope, no love, no future I know nobody's waiting And there is no place to go Nothing left but hatred And hate is the reason of disaster I'm falling to the ground And through the darkness i see the light I feel free So, I feel free Nothing holds me in this life No hope, no love, no future

You died so many years ago You left no one to bear in mind What you have done Throughout your life All your emotions left you No feeling left to move your soul You feel no taste Of this worn-out life And now when you lie wounded When all your flesh is torn apart You understand that all these years You were nothing But an empty vial with no content

Hey, you there, Are you to fool me again? I know and can't help this You are bound to hurt me Just Like thousand ones before And I know, I just know I'm forever alone Liberated and gone Let's enjoy the show! But my life Is only sharp edges Of the things that once Were my dreams I'm alone among strangers Some of them pretend to be friends But my life is Only sharp edges Of the things that once were my dreams

So when you are about to cross the divide When all your emotions are gone You realize the laws of this city have no power over you Because you are able to withstand The iron will of frozen city So often you feel as if you were some machine You do what you must And there is no way to change it You act as they say And no alternative ways there exist You are held captive to the laws of the crowd Feeling like a single drop of fresh water In the endless and merciless sea That engulfs you and brings you further Straight to the edges of deadly cliffs Ride the waves the way you want it Make the world your fine playground Tame the tempest Walk free right across the sea! One day you understand the power to defeat them Lies in the inner world of yours You are the one who holds this power In the very depths of your forever-living soul

Sometimes it is hard to tell Wheather the world is like hell Or it is just our life To always crawl and never fly Why? Tell me why Have you sacrificed your life In the war that was never yours Without reason or any cause War is a deadly decease Those infected die The ones who survive Suffer hellish agony of pain And never cry You have so many deadly wounds But you still on your feet For you don't want the enemy to see You fall into the dirt You'll never recognize defeat In the war that was never yours Without reason or any cause War is a deadly decease Your former friends have sold You for the brick of gold So on your knees you yell: Oh devil - watch out! I'm coming To see you in hell!

This impenetrable darkness has come down on my inner world There are no thoughts No feelings, no emotions Only all-absorbing emptiness Of soul and my mind With time I come to think There is no exit, no escape I’m attempting to do something To change this awful situation But still it seems All of this is useless and in vain I have to do all my best Just to achieve my goal And to change my life As I know that I can do it It is the way how it should be I just keep trying Though it seems as always hopeless And one moment I understand That I have reached this crucial point This ray of light that gives me hope And helps me to go on forever further I have to do all my best Just to achieve my goal And to change my life As I know that I can do it It is the way how it should be
