Lost in the wind
Without a direction
Possessed by perfection
In this land, if you're awake, you're the enemy
I run away
In search of redemption
A path to ascension
Like an elevator rising to the Sun
I scream at the stars, but nobody's listening
Searching for the end
But the journey's the reason for existence
It's tearing at my heart
The secret's in the distance
Hard to find the truth in the dark
When you're begging for forgiveness
Scorched by the rays
My quest is relentless
My spirit is desperate
To find comfort in the arms of her remedy
Chasing a face that has no reflection
The lights of salvation
Disappear into the shadows of the sand
I scream at the stars, but nobody's listening
Searching for the end
But the journey's the reason for existence
It's tearing at my heart
The secret's in the distance
Hard to find the truth in the dark
When you're begging for forgiveness
I'm begging for forgiveness
Yeah!
Chase my shadow to the Sun
Chase my shadow to the Sun
I scream at the stars, but nobody's listening
Searching for the end
But the journey's the reason for existence
It's tearing at my heart
The secret's in the distance
Hard to find the truth in the dark
When you're begging for forgiveness
I'm begging for forgiveness
Somewhere else the Earth turns 'round
Softly in the sky, so sound
Wallowing away
Wallowing away
Comfort in the grace I've found
Circling a distant star
Constellation drifts apart
Falling into phase
Falling into phase
Far beyond the shapeless heart
Somewhere else the Earth turns 'round
Softly in the sky, so sound
Wallowing away
Wallowing away
Comfort in the grace I've found
