Purgatory
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.
Thinking of an age old dream
Places I have never seen
Fantasies lived times before
I split my brain, melt through the floor
Over clouds my mind will fly
Forever now I can't think why
My body tries to leave my soul
Is it me? I just don't know
Memories rising from the past
The future shadows overcast
Something's clutching at my head
Through the darkness I'll be led
Oh another time, another place
Oh well another smile on another face
When you see me floating up beside you
You get the feeling that all my love's inside of you
Please take me away
Take me away
So far away
