VIVARIUM
The walls are high, the ceiling low, so low The air is thick, we are so slow, so slow So low So slow So low So slow Create a world of balance and symmetry Far from reminders of our mortality It will split the spirit to the bone Because in this crowd we feel alone In this cage we call our own We are surrounded by a world of stone Like birds that cannot fly In this poisoned, empty sky In this cage we call our own We are surrounded by a world of stone Like birds that cannot fly In this poisoned, empty sky This man-made Eden is a prison A place of horror and treason This is a prison Of horror and treason A glass garden, a world of illusion A place of confinement and self delusion The walls are high, the ceiling low, so low The air is thick, we are so slow, so slow The walls are high, the ceiling low The air is thick, we are so slow With each step strive for resurrection Escape the horde, find your direction Embrace your pain, your imperfections Become a child of your own creation Embrace your pain, your imperfections Become a child of your own creation In this cage we call our own We are surrounded by a world of stone Like birds that cannot fly In this poisoned, empty sky In this cage we call our own We are surrounded by a world of stone Like birds that cannot fly In this poisoned, empty sky A glass garden, a world of illusion A place of confinement and self delusion The walls are high, the ceiling low

Feeling lost again, I'm feeling down I'm suffocating while you watch me drown Like a candle, flickering weak It's hard to breathe, it's hard to speak Love! A thorny rose with petals red It feels so good, it hurts so bad Love! A thorny rose with petals red It feels so good, it hurts so bad Trapped in a cycle of pain profound You are so deaf to my moanful sound I had a feeling, I just knew This is my doing, I just let you A curse that brings happiness and sorrow A light that shines today but fades tomorrow We trust and give our hearts away To those who ignore our needs everyday Love! A thorny rose with petals red It feels so good, it hurts so bad Love! A thorny rose with petals red It feels so good, it hurts so bad Cut me open and see The raw version of me Cut me open and see The raw version of me Love! A thorny rose with petals red It feels so good, it hurts so bad Like a double-ended sword So much work with no reward Cut me open and see the shades of blue A reflection of the pain I've been through The pain I've been through, see the shades of blue I had a feeling, I just knew This is my doing, I just let you This is my doing, I just let you Love! A thorny rose with petals red It feels so good, it hurts so bad Like a double-ended sword So much work with no reward Love! A thorny rose with petals red It feels so good, it hurts so bad Like a double-ended sword So much work with no reward

Brave the currents, fight the waves Try to find your own way A mystery that won't let us free A power that we can't see Moments lost, never to return Time, a lesson that we'll never learn Moments lost, never to return Time, a lesson that we'll never learn A power that shapes us that we can't see A mystery that won't let us free, free We try to outrun it but it's always there Not fair! Reminding us that life is not fair, not fair Fear Moments lost, nevеr to return Time, a lesson that wе'll never learn Moments lost, never to return Time, a lesson that we'll never learn Time, a secret we can't unravel A force that controls us like cattle Moments lost, never to return Time is a lesson that we will never learn Never learn, learn A river that gives and flows A journey that nobody knows A river that gives and flows A journey that nobody knows Moments lost, never to return Time, a lesson that we'll never learn Moments lost, never to return Time, a lesson that we'll never learn A river that gives and flows A journey that nobody knows

We're all fading away We are just fading away (We are just fading away) Like memories of yesterday You are fading away (We are just fading away) Like memories of yesterday We try to hold on to our past But, it's slipping away so fast We try to make a lasting mark But, in the end we are just a spark Like leaves falling from the tree We crumble and fall inevitably Like leaves falling from the tree We crumble and fall inevitably We are just fading away (Wе are just fading away) Like memoriеs of yesterday You are fading away (We are just fading away) Like memories of yesterday Like a candle in the wind Flickering, fading in the end Like a ship lost at sea We are drifting away, can't you see? Can't you see? We all are fading away Just like fading dying light Wrinkles on our face A sign of our grace Holding on to our past so tight Like a fading dying light Like leaves falling from the tree We crumble and fall inevitably Like leaves falling from the tree We crumble and fall inevitably Wrinkles on our face (To see the other side of the moon) A sign of our grace (Becoming part of our tomb) Holding on to our past so tight (Losing its bloom) Like a fading dying light (Our impending doom) We are decaying While hoping to see the other side of the moon We are decaying Our bodies becoming part of our tomb We are decaying Like a rose losing its bloom We are decaying In the darkness of our impending doom We all are fading away Just like memories of yesterday We all are to our past so tight Like a fading dying light We are just fading away Like memories of yesterday Yeah, we're fading away Like memories of yesterday
