lyrics

Beauty gleams beneath the mud
As I'm digging for a sunset
shining bright among bones and skin
my rib cage's a labyrinth
where monsters and stars coexist
guardians of an unknown treasure

Wise man left bravely with his heavy luggage
he covered quick the path of aromatic herbs
his heart burst of passion, a thousand fake colors
A mysterious, dangerous journey to the treasure land

Such
Is the fate of man:
Forever seeking happiness
Without realizing that he
Vibrates
Untouchable
‘Cause he’s a note
inside the great melody of the universe.

Walked seven moons as the wind gently whispered
telling goodnight stories to the wise man's fears
suddenly dark shadows ran at him, mirrors
But at the end he managed to escape from the shadows of self

So he did arrive
To his much yearned destination
But as he touched the door
His hand went through and the buildings became ghosts

He looked up to the sky.
There were clouds watching upon him
Thunders lit up the land.
The rain began to fall.

And before he even knew
There was no chance to run away.
He got caught in a wave:
The flood was raging.

There was fear in his eyes.
The shadow town crumbled in the stream.
Black waters swallowed him:
He thought that was the end.

Beauty gleams beneath the mud
As I'm digging for a sunset
shining bright among bones and skin
my rib cage's a labyrinth
where monsters and stars coexist
guardians of an unknown treasure

he was falling apart, lost and drowning
when he finally decided to drop his luggage
he pushed himself energically on the sea's bottom
swimming through the treasure, pure waves of gold unseen

Such
Is the fate of man:
Forever seeking happiness;
Finding it down in the abyss.
