Birds fly in every direction

Did all my dreams never mean one thing?

Don’t you tell me what you think that I can be –
I’m the one at the sail,
I’m the master of my sea

I wage my war, on the world inside –
I take my gun to the enemy’s side

I was hoping for an indication
I was seeking higher elevation

Is this just an illusion
That I made inside my head to get me by?

It’s time to begin,
isn’t it?

I’m waking up,
I feel it in my bones –
Enough to make my system blow

Lift me up –
Give me strength to press on

My life, my love, my drive,
it came from – Pain!

Oh, I’ve been asking for –
Oh, I’ve been asking for
problems, problems, problems

Singing from heartache from the pain
Taking my message from the veins
Speaking my lesson from the brain
Seeing the beauty through the – Pain!

The more I stray the less I fear
And the more I reach the more I fade away

I wanna hide the truth –
I wanna shelter you –
But with the beast inside,
There’s nowhere we can hide

From farmers in the fields –
To the tallest of the towers that fall and rise

Welcome to the new age,
to the new age –
Welcome to the new age,
to the new age

In the latest midnight hour,
when the world has gone to sleep,
you gotta get up

Don’t you hold back
I can see in your mind and
your mind will set you free
