lyrics

In a world of make-believe
Off my game with heavy feet
It is getting hard to breathe
Carry on now
My skin is not fitting me
Nothing’s really what it seems
Yearn for solitude and dreams
Hold the line now

Stumbling in a raving dance
Trying to follow their commands
Bowing to demanding hands
Let me be
Like a puppet in their play
Bound by invisible chains
Rushing slowly against time
Set me free

Deluded by my cotton candy skies
They are tearing, grabbing, pulling, pushing me from every side
A weaver of their dreams to feed upon
Everybody wants something from me
The hunger lives on

Sleeping on uneven ground
Shouting higher with no sound
Cornered in a circle round
Carry on now
Stormy days that never end
Tension’s running in my veins
Panic time and time again
Hold the line now

Stumbling in a raving dance
Trying to follow their commands
Bowing to demanding hands
Set me free

Deluded by my cotton candy skies
They are tearing, grabbing, pulling, pushing me from every side
A weaver of their dreams to feed upon
Everybody wants something from me
The hunger lives on

Hiding behind a smile and a lie
I’m in pieces
Wondering if it’s meant to be
Is such a life my destiny?
Seasons are changing as I’m slowly fading
Is this my fate?

Deluded by my cotton candy skies
They are tearing, grabbing, pulling, pushing me from every side
A weaver of their dreams to feed upon
Everybody wants something from me
The hunger lives on

One remote dream away
A quiet space
Slow down, slow down, slow down and catch my breath
Put this chase to rest
Feeling my hand cutting the power lines
Shutting it all down, ruling a blackout
Safe in the dark, here in the underground
Cause when the curtain falls, nothing but silence

Deluded by my cotton candy skies
They are tearing, grabbing, pulling, pushing me from every side

Deluded by my cotton candy skies
They are tearing, grabbing, pulling, pushing me from every side
A weaver of their dreams to feed upon
Everybody wants something from me
The hunger lives on
