Lyrics
Opium
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A line is drawn, a stage is set
A battle is upon the curtain moves
The audience anxiously awaits
As the final act is starting to take place
Gracefully they're striking from above
Judgement blasting out of heaven
Hammering the anvil from the skies
Banging in the nails one by one
There's fire in the night
Trapped in an alien reality sentenced to die
Lost in a deserted world used to be mine
Searching for intelligent life to help get me out
Cover, no one must see me
Look to the sky and feel the fire
The fire which flames burn into my skin
Here is lighting skies
In the night
Falling from above
Hear the blast
Feel the clash
The hammer's striking hard
Shattering
All the things
Getting in its way
Splitting time
Fractured my
Dimension made of clay
Have mercy
What to do? I need someone
To help me find what I'm looking for
Earth's core is overheating
And time's running out. Life's nowhere to be found
Locked up
In a fractured dimension
Awaiting final death
Locked up
In a fractured dimension
Holding my last breath
Grains of sand keep me running blind
I can't seem to find the light
Leading me to inner peace
I want to be free
Locked up
Locked up
Locked up
Locked up
Locked up in a shattered dimension
Feelings of apprehension
Burning all the light and my energy
Needed to flee from the storm
Timeless is a fleeting hope
It's fleeting this dimension to escape
Euphoric master piece of heart
You're lying if you're saying you don't care
Locked up
Locked up
Locked up
Locked up
Fire
The fire which flames burn into my skin
Here is lighting skies
In the night
Falling from above
Hear the blast
Feel the clash
The hammer's striking hard
Shattering
All the things
Getting in its way
Splitting time
Fractured my
Dimension made of clay
Have mercy
Free my soul
