lyrics

Forsaken ground,
Deprived from sleep
Another desolate morn awakening me

Not a bit of the course I know
But without fail
From the shores of home I go
Stop counting the days,
Drop your ticking conscience
Bound to time and space

Silence falls, my mind stands still,
No one did nor ever will
Remember my name

[Solo: Bruni]

This is the great escape
This is a dreamer's dream
This is a picture of misery
Defying the storms of vanity

A distant voice from afar I hear
The wish to turn like siren's song
Is tempting me.

Swallowed by rain
As time stands still
No one did, not even you will
Remember my name
Remember my name

[Solo: Maas]

I'm heading to the unknown
No destination far enough.
No leaving, no arriving,
All aim is overboard
I stray into your silence
Raised is my flag of white
I beg for termless asylum
Solaced by your face I see
In lucid visions yearning for me
I close my eyes
Taste theses memories set alive

I am the drop-out dreamer
If I roam or if I stay, no one misses, nor did
Nor ever will remember my name

This is the great escape
This is a dreamer's dream
This is a picture of misery
Defying the storms of vanity

A journey doomed to failure
Exodus of broken dreams
The call of the lost ones
Sound of the void
Beckoning me
