Escaping Life Lyrics

Born into a world which is not mine
Grown up, been taught that there would be no place divine
Consuming, haunting, feasting in a rage
To satisfy my hunger – 'tis what we've done to human age!

I was not aware why the sun gives warmth
Nor would I have dared to ask if someone else does
Now as she melts with the horizon and dusk sprawls onto the sky
Feeling within escaping life, all I can ask is why

It cannot be that only by being left, one can get aware of what is no more
Why should one call it a theft, if unconscious of it he had been before

I escape my life, my weary past – surrender!
With these my last thoughts I will save me – remind!
Looking back I realize, at last I burn – forgive!
Though cold I am, fading, fainting, dreaming of...

Death
