[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Take my breath away

I don't need it anyway

'Cause I'm fine here in my own forgotten world

Where I can be myself

Left with the hand I'm dealt

And it's hard to get a grip, when you're holding onto something

You just let slip away

[Pre-Chorus]

All these thoughts stuck in my mind

Spinning round like endless time

For once in my life...

[Chorus]

I do wanna feel something you call real

But I don't think that I've got time for these scars to heal

And the days just go by leaving questions in my mind

I guess, I'll find the answers someday in another life

[Verse 2]

Here with my old friend

The silence in the end

And it rings so loud that I cannot pretend

If I just close my eyes

And ask a thousand whys

Will it change or stay the same? Will it ever go away?

The question still remains

[Pre-Chorus]

All these thoughts stuck in my mind

Spinning round like endless time

For once in my life...

[Chorus]

I do wanna feel something you call real

But I don't think that I've got time for these scars to heal

And the days just go by leaving questions in my mind

I guess, I'll find the answers someday in another life

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

Warning signs read desolation

On the road of desperation

"Happiness machines," I'm coming clean

What can you do for me?

[Chorus]

I do wanna feel something you call real

But I don't think that I've got time for these scars to heal

And the days just go by leaving questions in my mind

I guess, I'll find the answers someday in another life

[Post-Chorus]

Ohh, ohh, ohhh, ohh, oh...

[Outro]

(Ohh, ohh, ohhh, ohh, oh, ohh, ohh, ohhh, ohh, oh...)

So here now I stand at the end of "a dark road out of hell"

It's not so hard as I depart, what a way to become a man...
