Black Orchid
I never wanted guidance To tell me where to find A light in the darkness Cause the dark I'd push aside No time for dreaming of a distant Paradise No time for tales of good and evil
Another correlation: as above so below Another analysing where illusions fail to show The face of the maker who'd leave you alone Without a sense of comprehension
When that meadow - in front of my eyes - will have dried away Will my senses wither like flowers on my grave Will this wave of becoming flow into the void of time
The final hour: When Never and Now become one Will I find the orchid The final hour: Door to the garth of eternity? Or withered orchid meadows? Everybody's praying But what if God is just a threat And everybody's straying? If only they would just forget Everybody's craving For a ghost light in the haze: You'll lose your minds one after another
Everybody's craving For what doesn't have a name or a face So reason could fit it in the frame In quest of the orchid: A glimmer in the daze Till I awake to the sound of rigour
What if that meadow in your mind is just a fantasy? And if it wanted to be seen why must you believe? Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
Will this wave of becoming flow into the void of time
The final hour When Never and Now become one
Will I find the orchid
The final hour Door to the garth of eternity
Or withered orchid meadows
Black orchid Strange and beautiful Oh black orchid I must find you
I remember that morning He had to be told What he couldn't remember After he'd spoken to the wall
And I gave to repression What I must not have seen What even believers Must unlearn to unbelieve
The final hour When Never and Now become one Will I find the orchid The final hour Door to the garth of eternity
Or withered orchids The final hour When Never and Now become one
