Realized one day I was just a slave
Went rushing throug this world
Done everything but what was to be done
Just counting on our lord
Yet still Im the unhappy one

Feeding rumours everyday
Putting my needs away
Hiding my face
Oh what a disgrace

Necklace tied onto my neck
Needing more but what the heck
Serving others until just a wreck

Bottoms up once a week
Acting like a total geek

Please let me rest
Give me shelter
Hold my hand

Please let me rest
Give me shelter
Wont you understand

I once dreamed I could fly high above in the sky
Raven spreading its wings
I once deceived the ones I loved I dont know why, maybe I should fly
The seiren sings

Maybe one day I would climb
Maybe one day I could climb
Maybe one day I should climb

An echo from the distance
Serving my senses

The bewildering thoughts unto my head
'Its much better to be dead'
'Much better to eat some led'
But I had already fled

Take me away
Let me rest
Please let me rest
Give me shelter
Hold my hand

Please let me rest
Give me shelter
Wont you understand

Were nothing but shadows
Were nothing but dust

Were hiding in shadows
Were hiding our lust

Just once if I could unveil me Reveal me Be real me

'I have an appointment with the destiny - am I on time'
'Enter the imminent'

Yet again I was in dispair
Yet again I want to dissappear
Yet again I had this urge

To be nothing Not a thing Not anything

Meet me
Meet me
Please let me rest
Give me shelter
Hold my hand

Please let me rest
Give me shelter
Wont you understand

Its already too late now
I went away
I wish Id stayd
Its already too late now

Am I or Am I not
Please untie my knot
Please let me rest
Give me shelter
Hold my hand

Please let me rest
Give me shelter
I follow thy wand
