State of Suspense lyrics

Gravity of thoughts

They pull you down

Carry your miles away

But often it is just one step

That makes you think of

How to escape

Which path to take

Like the red thread that guides you

Out of your labyrinth

Tied up, down on the seafloor

No way to surface again

And every move I make is

Taking my breath, strangling my neck

Just me shrouded in a nightmare

Cold water covering me

A place where light has never been

Emptiness surrounding my body

Cry -

Screams falling silently

Tears are drowning

Pressure fills my veins

Opened eyes

To get rid of my chains and free myself

From this blackened space

Ignorance - blown away by the rays of the sun

Enlightening my pale face

Blinded thoughts, now able to see

Thousands of colours are painting my scenery

Encaged - my selfbuilt prison

In depths nobody knows

And all my cries won't help me

Out of my pain, away from my grave

Just me gliding into nothing

All my life left behind

State of suspense in frozen time.
