Unarmed For Victory

Royal Ocean
In the darkest of nights, we walked along ink-filled shoresFrom calm moonlit waters branches and hungering roots came forthHow deep a passion persisted in the midst of our prolonged asphyxiationHad you dreamt of this? Had you tasted this?Everything that once carried weight had lost it allWeightless. Emptiness. Those roots forced us down to a crawl.There, a magnificent scene took shape,Ink etched downwards on your hopeful, restful, bloodied faceWhy would you smile?It was something I could not understandWhy would you try to live in antique world filled with fading hands?Around us the stars lost their place in the nighttime skyMarking landfall near our heads, signaling the end of our timeThis is over, it has been quite over for a while nowAnd yet it feels like the beginning of something...I know not everything behind me is intimate,I try and walk with eyes set on foreign groundCausing conflict, how strange these soundsIt's hard to think clear when standing in murky airThat night I watched you fall apart, I watched you disappearYour hands danced franticly as you came out of the comaMy breathing stilled as you came out of the comaBut then I woke up, I woke up.Nothing lies between the hearts that do not exist.(..Goodbye dreamer, this is reality. You've killed this in your dreaming..) Aus Songtexte Mania
