Songtexte - Morphios

Every night when you close your eyes
It's time for him to descend from the skies
He watches you, while you sleep, he gets inside your head, you're his to keep
And no-one hears your long and silent cries

He feeds on your most secret pain
And night after night he's here again
He's slowly driving you insane
He never leaves your brain
You feel the power, feel the pain
He's slowly driving you insane

You're tossing and turning in your bed
He's right inside your aching head
You want him to leave but he won't go, he's always there but you don't know
He's all you're ever gonna get
Every night when you close your eyes
It's time for him to descend from the skies

He feeds on your most secret pain
And night after night he's here again
He's slowly driving you insane
He never leaves your brain
You feel his power, feel his pain
He's slowly driving you insane

Dry land it always has been
Dry land is what I have seen - all of my life
Are these raindrops just a joke or are they serious - I don't know

Storm-clouds come and fade away
Downpours each and every day
Are these raindrops just a joke or are they serious - I don't know

The sun in the sky has disappeared
Clouds obstruct the view like we have feared
Is this patch of dry land supposed to keep me alive?

Rivers in the desert, lakes in every town
The water's rising, the land is drowning
People are screaming, children are crying
The cities are falling, the forests are dying

Well, it seems things have really changed
Land and sea have been rearranged
I can hardly recognise the place I used to call mine

"Greenhouse effect", newspapers say
"Ozone layer blown away"
Can you give me a reason for this? Can you give me a reason?

Should I stay here and bear the pain?
Or leave this land of never ending rain
I know things have got to change

My land is drowning in this never ending rain
Should I leave here, to overcome my pain?
It seems so right, it seems so wrong, will I regret it when I'm gone

Water all around me everywhere
Everybody's gone, no one to care
I know things have got to change

(Instrumental)

Darkness comes like a thief on padded feet
Creeping behind you, like a snake that's chasing its prey
Suddenly, you start to feel the need
You gotta get out into the dying day
You gotta get out into the dying day

Waiting for darkness to deeply enfold you
Waiting for darkness to have and to hold you
Waiting for darkness, your saviour and guide
Waiting for darkness to stay by your side

The longing returns to you night after night
And you're giving in like a junkie to the pain
You'll find what you need, and it's close by your side
So you walk out into the night again

Waiting for darkness to deeply enfold you
Waiting for darkness to have and to hold you
Waiting for darkness, your saviour and guide, tonight
Waiting for darkness to stay by your side

I'll be gone when you read this
I couldn't stay anymore
I wanted to leave, but you kept me waiting
But finally I pushed open the door
Maybe we'll meet again later
Maybe then you will understand
I couldn't keep it all going
It was getting out of hand

I'll be gone when you read this
And don't try to run after me
Cause I know a place where no-one can find me
Someplace where you've never been
I know that it won't be easy
But surely not as hard as love
I won't feel the pain you caused me again and again
I'll pull the trigger and I will be gone

I'll be gone when you read this
And please don't run after me...

(Instrumental)

(Instrumental)

There's an everlasting feeling
There's a pain inside my heart
Girl I need you
Girl I miss you
Why can't we try another start

Life's getting harder everyday
Every place too far away
I don't see you
I don't feel you
Sleepless nights and lonely days

Since you've been gone there's only darkness
Empty rooms, no life inside
My head is turning
I'm aching, yearning
Without you by my side

I remember how it started
Every single word we said
The 2 of us together
Our love would last forever
You said you'll never go away
...and I'm yearning

But now I'm lying here depressed in the cold
You were so heartless, you were so cold
I can't forget you, every night I pray
Please come back and stay

Another day that you're away
I can't go on without you
If you could see me
If you could only hear me
Would you still lock your heart away
...and I'm yearning

You've been playing around with me Baby
You've been letting me down too much Baby
You have mixed up my feelings Baby
I'd never thought I'd still love you, but maybe

I would steal for you, if you loved me too
I would die with you, if you wanted to

I wanna be with you and waste no time
I felt so bad without you but now I'm fine
Let's get together and lets have some fun
Let's burn the bridges and steal the sun

You said you needed your freedom Baby
You said you wanted to leave me Baby
You left my heart in a tangle Baby
I really wanted to hate you but maybe

I would steal for you, if you loved me too
I would die with you, if you wanted to

I wanna get you back but I don't know how,
I wanna make you mine, but just somehow
I have a feeling that ain't no fun,
you're gonna steal my heart and then you'll run.

You pushed me into the fire Baby
And we went higher and higher Baby
So don't you go and just leave me Baby
You'd better come back believe me Baby

I would steal for you, if you loved me too
I would die with you, if you wanted to

I would steal for you, if you loved me too
Anything I'd do, just to be with you
