sad serenity - first awakening lyrics
[instrumental intro]
[verse 1 – marcell kaemmerer]
gracious slumber giving way to
colors, scents & sounds familiar
feeling battered yet continue
a change of pace long overdue
feeding wheels
head over heels
the water‘s rising on the inside
night to day and day to pain
a camouflaged usurper‘s reign
[pre+chorus – marcell kaemmerer]
enigmatic simplicity
a million veils of reality
enigmatic simplicity
a million veils of reality
[chorus – marcell kaemmerer]
what is life
a gift a curse a travesty
a mind that’s spinning round and round
a beacon on a burial mound
what is life
a gift a curse a travesty
stuck inside the rabbit’s hole
set adrift a dream
control
[verse 2 – marcell kaemmerer]
obligations, duties, urges
circadian rat race
dull and faint
entangled tightly, tell me how
can we endure this
perpetual strain
[verse 3 – marcell kaemmerer]
run, malice, run!
escape the cradle
your inner babel
finding shelter
within yourself
[verse 4 – george margaritopoulos]
a journey inwards
a task afield
a path to follow
a place concealed
to break the chains we disavow
[pre+chrorus – marcell kaemmerer]
enigmatic complexity
a billion veils of reality
enigmatic complexity
a billion veils of reality
[chorus – marcell kaemmerer]
what is life
your gift your curse your travesty
a mind that’s spinning round and round
a beacon on a burial mound
what is life
your gift your curse your travesty
stuck inside the rabbit’s hole
set adrift a dream
control
[instrumental interlude]
[guitar solo]
[bridge – george margaritopoulos]
bruised and wounded
bent and broke
paralyzed by fear of life
too blind to see
the you in me
spoiled and nurtured
well acclaimed
a gorgeous mask
the me in you
finding old when craving new
[chorus – marcell kaemmerer]
what is life
my gift my curse my travesty
a mind that’s spinning round and round
a vessel stranded underground
what is life
my gift my curse my travesty
falling down the rabbit’s hole
a dream a nightmare
lose control
what is life
our gift our curse our travesty
minds go spinning round and round
a beacon on a burial mound
what is life
our gift our curse our fallacy?
crawling down the rabbit’s hole
a distant mountain to behold
