RPWL: Victim of Desire

On the search for what is hidden in my mind
Who knows how it is to feel alive
On the search for everything trapped in my head
Look at me I’m lost and drowned in evil lies

Is it a childhood dream, so dark that we can’t see?
A neural guide you can’t resist?
Is it the urge to be on everybody’s mind,
To leave something under their skin?

There was a time before when I was nothing more
than just a victim of desire
So many voices they were talking to me in my head
Enough to set my heart on fire

Take a rest under the moon, I take a second look at you
I only did what I had to do
Could have happened miles away
On every street, on every day
In a car park, in a train
In a bar, some forgotten place, On any screen, on any page

Please catch my soul and bring me to the river of our life
Fly far enough where all the darkest dreams are left behind

A box full of memories, the things you’ve done to me
Eat at me each and every day
Lost and shipwrecked by the laughter of the world outside
I hurt anyone, so don’t get in my way

My Inner Guide, lost and gone
I killed you in my dreams before
Help me to calm the voices in my mind
Or those bullets will bring you down

Please catch my soul and bring me to the river of our life
Fly far enough where all the darkest dreams are left behind
Please catch my heart and bring me to a world where we survive
Stop the voices of the past
They’ve come to call me once again

On the search for what is hidden in my mind
Who knows how it is to feel alive
On the search for everything trapped in my head
Look at me I’m lost and drowned in evil lies
