lyrics

Drown in his mind
lost deep inside
blinded by images his head displays
drown in the stories his mad brain creates
he sees nothing of the world around
but someone's calling you
she's calling you

Tears in fire
Poison down your throat runs
Rain's denial
Poison down your throat slowly runs

He's now alive
he took a sip of light
and one more time he knows
there's no way back
there's no way out
out of the voice, loud, calling for life
He's in the mud
but he's alright
he feels no need, now, to step outside
but down he goes, down deep he drowns
trapped is the worm in honey-mud
and soon his wings will grow

Tears in fire
Poison down your throat runs
Rain's denial
Her invisible cobweb is near
Wings of water
Cruel portrait of desire
Feed the spider
A bed hiding a coffin

Travel with me into the core
I will choose the longest way to
infinite skies
burning inside cosmic caves

Travel with me into the core
into universe’s mind
Will this union
grant us inmortality?
