Waking up in another place
It's dark and abandoned, questions in my head
Where is my home, where is my race?
I walk down this road
They're all passing by
I walk through the cold
Walking deeper towards the dark
He's watching me
A deadly voice is mellowing the wind
Something's here
Something's here
Hide me please from this poisoned world
The song is louder in my ears
This was the place that I once called home
Now it's an orchestra of our own fears
The drums I hear, the battle is won
They rule the Earth like we ruled before
A melody inside is pushing me to move on
But no one is here, no one can help me anymore
No one can help me anymore
Our star is rising for the one last time
The sky has opened just for me to see
The glimpse of light is flowing, flowing across the dark
That final spark radiates through me
I cannot run, though I can't believe
Is this the end of the human being?
There is no place where I could go
For You, I'm just a number in a fucking row
