Living nightmares are crawling on me – day after day
Trying to find shelter, a run-away but still – I feel them on my skin
They rack me with pain, my mind they strain – and I can't hide
If now you can hear me,
Please show me some bliss – as with children when they go to sleep
Anguish is a sharpened blade cutting a
Way thru the flesh – straight to the heart
Love and tears, joy and fears,
Like hammers hitting a wall – making it crumble in dust
Like old men forced to death under the
Weight of their age – a voice comes in my dreams
"The world out there is a savage beast that
Merciless tears apart the weaks in its hatred feast"
Can you hear me crying at night,
Where my voice can't scream and tears can't fall out of my eyes?
Where's your hand, Father?
It never touches our backs relieving the sorrow and the pain
Of being vulnerable children in the jaws
Of this world where you've forgotten about us
Where what we call love is just another
Way leading to a place where hope is vain
Looking outside from the window you see
Time silent passing – decomposing all around
Men walking the earth as each other's'
Slaves – careless of what generates hate
Living in rotten dreams and illusions of
Power – they forgot their own brothers' names
They won't cry, they won't think,
They are killing their children in the sleep
And love in all this is just a cruel myth – where they hide in despair
Believing our world is safe 'cause love
Is the way – that leads to some ecstasy
And while they cry they will mask with fake
Smiles the fear for those crawling nightmares at night
They'll remember them,
Their children in bed, and the lies relieving their sleep
