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
Second favourite: "I Fade". Other great (!) songs are "Ocean" amd "Mainland" (which has a Loreena McKennitt-meets-Within Temptation vibe) I have procrastinated buying her "Kings & Queens" album. I shall fix that immediately. Pie
How do you top the magnificence of Extinction Six? With an absolutely mesmerizing EP that shows the continued evolution of Dialith into a force to be reckoned with. Vocals that can cut like a knife or charm a cobra, grandiose melodies and RIFFS.
Undertow will go down as one of, if not the most listened to songs of 2021 for me & I expect on my death bed it'll be one of the most listened to songs in my life. subsequentseer
