lyrics

“I hear the clock ticking but I cannot feel time. The walls of this white room surround me; yet they make me feel so wonderful. The walls are cold and unreal to my other senses, for my eyes cannot see. Thoughts hit my mind so fast; there’s nothing left here for me. Delusions…
A woman in white disappears in the dark. As the needle hits my vain with its spark, I feel fine… I feel… I…”

Watch the ceiling fall
Falling down on me
Feel the pain inside my head
Sometimes I can hear only
Screams out in the dark, screams inside of me
The nightmares of my childhood set me free

Strange woman in white
Holding needles in her hand
Pain is now much stronger
I’m under her command
I cry every night as the light fades away
Oh, what have I done and what price should I pay?

Innocence is my sinful excuse
Paid all dues in clock ticking abuse
Est a levis regnum
Cold asylum of gloom

Innocence is my sinful excuse
Paid all dues in clock ticking abuse
Est a levis regnum
Cold asylum of gloom

Drive me mad, drive me insane
Things I hide inside my brain
Stoned by drugs, I feel no pain
I need her…
After all those needle shots
My polysyllabic thoughts
Wiped away my mind, I’m lost
I feel her…
All alone, on my own, now my lady has gone
Night has come to steal the colors of the dawn
Will I see another dawn?

Wasted I stand, I can do no mistakes
For the time has arrived
And the door left unlocked
Maybe tomorrow’s not far from my dreaming
Yet, there’s no end in my thoughts
Now I’m gone

In scenes of my past, my future I see
As lights disappear, I can't find what’s unreal
Just a flash of a hard blazing lightning conceals
The truth and the lies, all the things I could be

Innocence is my sinful excuse
Paid all dues in clock ticking abuse
Est a levis regnum
Cold asylum of gloom
Est a levis regnum
