lyrics

Timequake deep in the dead of night
Free will chained at dawn
Daybreak; second hand crimson light
Painting circles around the sun

Time skipped a beat
The past plays old refrains
Blue and bittersweet
We will suffer the pain
Again and again...

Timequake deep on the dead of night
Vision turning red
Taurus thrown in a ring to fight
Blindly charging the past ahead

Time tipped the scale
Age made me conform
Will to fight is frail
Cast away in the storm
Inertia is strong...

My time has passed
Lost with ashes at my feet
Deceived, and now
All those dreams taste bittersweet
Can't you see?
Life is just a dumb re-run
In circles we orbit the sun
All this pain
We have suffered in vain
While God had his fun

Timequake at the eleventh hour
Free will, free to go
We don't follow it down the tower
Bound by spiritual vertigo

Frightened we grope,
Afraid to stand up and choose:
Asphyxia or hope
Feel the tug of the noose
Just climb up the rope
Climb, monkey, climb!
Climb, monkey, climb!
Climb!
Abandon all hope
As you grope
Up the rope
