Dead Again

Why do i keep on doing this? it's not for me anymore
I'm doing this more for you than i
And on that lonely road to nowhere
I lost myself to something else

I don't know where i'm going or where i've been
It's so hard to remember all the things i am, am i?
It feels like the end is near, catching up with me
Catch me if you can, cause i'm going down into the ground

How much longer can i keep going on?
I can feel my lost ones coming down
Sooner than later i'll see you all again
I feel my purpose here slipping away
I see the sun, but it's raining

I hope i'm on my way to better things
And if i'm not, it doesn't really matter
Cause i am doing this more for you than i am me
I can no longer pretend, that my life is worth living
I...i would rather die, be dead again

Hold on
Now here it comes, death for one, for a lonely son
Up then down. i'm spinning around
My soul is so confused again
Am i floating towards the sun?
Hold on, am i dead on?

[solo: shermann]

Through a tunnel of black, why?
Why do i feel so sad?

I've been waiting for the end of act 9 to come
The curtain must fall, the end of a song

[solo: wead]

But the song goes on and on
The light is so very strong
I'm drifting along, i have no will

I'm drifting still
In a room without walls...i feel the chill
No one is here to pick me up
Nothingness...what a mess...oh
Is anybody there?

Is anybody there? i'm talking to you, do you hear me?
If i could only see through the wall of nothingness
The wall of black
They gave me number 9, this is not like last time
Number 9
This time i am really losing my mind

I hear an orchestra...i see an orchestra
I greet an orchestra...i meet an orchestra
I'm in an orchestra...i am an orchestra
I kill this orchestra...i kill me? no
No don't stop, oh please don't stop

Hey say here, what's going on?...hey wait for me

[solos: shermann-wead]

I'm running but i can't keep up
Then i realize my feet are gone
This is such a weird weird song
The orchestra is now a door
One is one and two is four. i can see three more
Seven doors, seven doors
I must choose one before they're gone

But i cannot move, oh they are drifting away now
But i cannot move, oh they are drifting away now
I've got to reach that door, the number 6
I've got to reach that door, the number 6
The number 6-6, the number 6-6-6
The number 6-6-6

The number 6-6-6, that's my door
Wuauuu...look at all the colours
There goes an orchestra, no more doors
Close the window, here they come
I hear another end of this song
But again the song goes on

Dead again. i know cause i've been here before
I'm dead again, if i could only reach that door
The number 6-6-6, the number 6-6-6

I'm beginning to miss you again
Why can't i just get you out of my mind...
I must forget

Dead again. i know cause i've been here before
I'm dead again, if i could only reach that door
Through a purple mist the light is fading
I guess i'll have to stay dead
A little longer this time

Dead again...
