LITTLE DREAMER


Once there was a boy back in time of the heathens
Day after day he just kept dreaming things that would make him weaker
His father could not make him see, that there is more than dreams
But he wouldn't listen to the words of his father, 'cause he's a little dreamer

Along his quest for solitude
A wise man came and told him to follow the stars

He ran to the forest with whirlwinds by his side
He's lost in this world of lies
Take him back where rivers flow upwards
He is the one who lives
under a moonless sky looking for time
Take him back where stars are shining bright

Far in the lands of icetop mountains far on the other side
pictures are appearing so serenely into my mind
Far in the lands of meadows of fire deep in forgotten life
memories are drifting away so silently from light

Along his path of misery
A wise man came and told him to follow... the stars
Little Dreamer...

ABANDONED

Sing for your tears
A song of the hatred
No one can hear
'Cause your life is forgotten
I want to give my life to you
But my will is tied with puppet strings
I am fighting and screaming alone
Inside this empty room

They let you down, threw you in the rain
They let you down, sent you away

The night is dark when you're alone
And sometimes it can be so cruel
The rain keeps falling on me so coldly
'Cause your wishes didn't come true

Nothing seems real anymore
As I dive into the sea of lies
I don't understand this sorrow
That keeps me sane

They let you down, threw you in the rain
They let you down, sent you away

Without a name
The let you down

Nothing seems real anymore
As I dive into the sea of lies
I don't understand this sorrow

That keeps me sane.
