lyrics

(verse 1)
Life is daydream
It's my world
True depiction
Of life as fiction

(verse 2)
Lying head
Soft grass my bed
Wind breathes, Earth revolves
Receives me and dissolves....

(chorus)
Voices sound their speechless words
Reluctant spirits waiting to be heard
Call me, lure me, my dreams have birth
Drifting, sinking
Into the Earth

(verse 3)
Candle game
Hands dance round the violet flame
Desire so much
Can't resist to touch....

(Chorus)

(bridge)
Sinking down
Body descends
To the mirror world
And my true friends
The corporeal me
That you perceive
Is the merest taste
Of what lies beneath

(repeat verse 1)
