TO-MERA LYRICS

1. Mesmerized

Why are we so afraid to see
though those sparkling lights?
Is the world mesmerised
by a cheap illusion?
When will we find our way?
Is it all about survival?
Our lives - frail but exalting
When will they be ours?

Don't look away! Don't believe
the world's the same! Every word,
every way, every path will only
lead right black to you... oh
what are you waiting for? Don't
you know it's all about the road?

Will you weep over deserted
oceans - embracing a silent land?

Oh is it all about survival
Will you die last? Will you wish
you dreamt a different past?

Oh tell me deep inside... do all
wrong know right?
How long will we hide behind those lies?

2. Earthbound

Savouring the dusk of dreams
The bittersweet evasion
of the pain of awakening
Oh why are those golden meadows
so enticing?
Yet I know that I must surrender
To the insomniac dawn
And I know
That I must return to the shell of
my earthbound spirit

Savouring the truth inside
The bittersweet evasion of the pain
of remembering
Oh why are those golden meadows
so enticing?

Frozen in time - a gift from above
Or just another moment closer
to the end
Another way to tear myself open
Where is home and who to believe?
Where's this road leading?
Is it just fate that I am thrown from
the depths of the Earth
to bare mountain tops?

And maybe I'm the fool
for taking my own path
Well I walk alone if I must
But maybe one day I'll find
my own golden meadows
amongst those words
I thought would fade in time
But now I know: they've become
what I am... and they'll just scream
and never leave me again
They'll be mine forever, unforgiven...

3. Arcane Solace

Lay me down - my serenity
On fragrant meadows
of arcane desires
Release my heart from its rusty cage

Immerse your thirst within my soul -
Valled beneath soft sheets of sorrow...
Oh lay me down and sing for me
Sweet lullabies of broken shadows -

That sweep across our silent solace
As we're drifting,
drifting solemnly across
Roaring seas of our brave new world...

So embrace my soul - it's yours
Destroyed but undefeated we'll soar
with broken wings

And forever I'll cling to our beloved
crime -
Of obeying mysteries too great to deny

So embrace my soul - it's yours
Destroyed but undefeated we'll soar
with broken wings

4. Another World

Silent for so long
I wondered through empty streets
'till I... found myself screaming at last -
Take me away
I'm not meant to be here...

Left behind without a word - just
Empty letters of lies and those
bittersweet memories
- buried somewhere deep
Now how will I find home again?
How will I know the way?

Do I have to walk through fire again
- do I have to take that lonely way?

Cowering behind the lines
chasing illusions
Drifting slowly down and down
along with sparkling sands of time

Wondering when hope was set free
and we all got in line
When has the run begun...

Just open your eyes...

Over your head
of they're building
someone else's world
And yet you follow the same old
road under your soles
When will you awake?
When will you look inside?

Who's hero will you be,
who's yesterday belongs to you
oh who's tomorrow...
