lyrics

I. Contemplation

The whole city here
Is built on the sand
My old lost caravan
Should have lead us there
Never been in this town before
But still feel familiar

I'm still lost, I'm still scared
I'm still thirsty as hell
I'm still not out of the Desert of Death

II. Synergy

The streets are full of people
There is an energy
That emerge from this town
This flow seems to enter into a lower zone

Following the masses
Drawing near something unknown
Where do they all go?
I can see, I am there

It's majestic
There's a beautiful, gigantic
Colorful fountain
Which is the center of activities

III. Unwelcomed

At the main fountain,
Drinking a drop of water
Stared by strangers
A creep for the civilians
So disrespectful
So-called human beings

I am the stranger
"This guy's not welcomed here"
Going, to the bazaar
Hoping, unexpectedly
I can find answers
To my unsolved questions

Quickly, I found
An old woman
An antiquarian
Who held a little shop
"Hey you! Come here, we got to talk"

Strangely, I knew
I had already met her
But I wasn't able
To say when, or where
"I knew you would come
I was waiting for you"

Who are you?

"Can't you remember?"

I can't recall but...
Where are we?

IV. Witch speech

"We're into a painted world
Absolutely
Born from the painted landscape
We are actually in a framework
Into a living painting"

"You have witnessed
The power of pictures
If you believe in a world you see
You can be transported into it
Just like what happened to you
We established contact with this world"

How can I Find My Way Back Home?
Am I stuck here eternally?
I can't see light within your story
I don't want to stay here on my own

V. Imagery

"Think to where you're from
Take a mental picture of it
I know you can remember this
I believe you trust in your world
You can find your painted home
And go back to where you come from
But don't forget lad
There are thousands more
You will lose yourself"

Here is where the worlds are stored
You know it's everywhere the same
I'm living in each one of them
It's my own immortality
You can see there is no real world
Only parallel universe
And one last thing lad
What you need is here
Right in your head"

VI. Seeking

I put all my fears and doubts aside
My picture was far
And I sought within my mind
My picture....

In my ultimate research
In this imaginary world
Doubting of what's really real
While any false move...
Can throw me into a distorted world

I put all my will and faith ahead
My picture was coming
And I sought within my mind
My picture was made
I found it!

VII. Finding My Way

Oh, I appeared in an antiquities shop
I was finally back in my world
No longer stuck in the Desert of Death
In the Desert of Death
In the Desert of Death
In the Desert of Death
